Aurora the Animatronic Polar Bear Heads Global Day of Protest to Save The Arctic

We have heard of all sorts of animals landing up in London over the last few years. Many have surmised that it is global warming and its effect on the environment that is to blame for the English capital’s increasingly more unusual and exotic accidental visitors. Yesterday, however, there was no guessing.  Aurora the animatronic polar bear was there quite deliberately and she had her Arctic home and its protection very much on the agenda.

Aurora is the latest vehicle (almost literally) of environmental charity Greenpeace.  Yesterday, supporters marched alongside this three-tonne mechanical polar bear through central London as part of its Save the Arctic campaign.

A Petite, Yet Extraordinary Holiday Greeting!

It can be surprising what the contents of a Christmas card can present – but this one seems to have pretty much everything! Except perhaps a short title which might just be the point after all.

This short holiday greeting was created by Tripp and Jenna Watt who together make up Phantasmic.  They are a small and unique visual duo currently based in New York. Their projects have included music videos and animations, fashion films, and various interactive video installation projects.  As you can see, they love stop motion animation and always try something a little different on each project.
