I had the privilege of working on the Big History Project, a free, Bill Gates-funded educational course that tells the story of the Universe and humanity. I was brought onto a team led by John Fan to create a series of videos (narrated by David Christian) that accompanied each course lesson. Each course presented a unique challenge of telling a complex story through the use of simple objects and animation. Our goal was to use these simple elements to layer and build complexity, both with the visual design and animation.
