Second Home is presently surrounded by the buzz of the 2022 Commonwealth Games as our home town of Birmingham proudly plays host. We’ve been heads down these past months working on a special commission from host broadcaster, Sunset + Vine to produce animated maps for 5 events.
Very pleased to say we won a bronze award at The Drum Roses Awards 2022 in the Illustration/Animation category for our work on The Girls Who Turned To Water for WaterAid UK.
Huge congratulations to all of last night's award recipients. 🥳

Here’s a tour around our miniature barn set we created in collaboration with @3minuteswest. All of the miniature props were intricately hand crafted and finished to have a rustic ‘stored-in-an-outhouse’ feel.
Montage filmed on our very own motion control rig! 🎥
It was a pleasure to speak at @BeyondCnf about how we made Wasted: Into The Microverse, the immersive VR narrative we created with @HolosphereVR as part of the @StoryFuturesA Kickstart programme...

The Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) is the UK’s leading wetland conservation charity. To showcase 6 of WWTs wetland bird species, we took high resolution images into 3D spaces and added parallax and motion. It amounts to a nice study of some beautiful wildlife 🐦🏞️
Over on the @Numberblocks YouTube Channel 2M maths fans have viewed Pattern Palace, our 3rd stop motion recreation from the hit CG show. This was one of the more colourful and crafty sets from the collection, ft a painted bridge & a soothing paper stream 🏞️🔢
