Idea
We decided to use the metaphor of the ‘hive’ after an interview with Laura at Dusa we discussed keeping the branding which was originally designed for them. We used a bee and a narration that would also have bee and hive metaphors. To locate pollen a bee seeks the flower and moves a certain way to direct other bees to the pollen. We wanted to bring this in to our animation.
