ABOUT

For this project we had to explore politics and come up with a 30 second animation with no sound to correspond with the brief. My subject was about pensions - the fact that people have to work longer for a smaller or no pension when they are at retirement age.

I came up with this idea of a pensioner sipping tea , when suddenly a huge pill bottle falls down and knocks her out in a Monty Python inspired way.

The imaginary pills are called 'No-Pensioncillin' - a pun on the word penicillin. The side effects listed on the bottle correlates to the suffering of pensioners who have saved up their money for little or no money.
