I was asked by the incredibly talented Soprano; Greta Bradman to create an animated hand-drawn video around her title track, My Hero from her highly acclaimed album of the same name.
With the theme based on Greta’s two sets of grandparents and how they both experienced being apart during the Second World War (& at other times), how they both shared lifelong partnerships, and how they all adored music, especially classical music and showtunes.
This was such an inspiring project to work on and working with Greta was an absolute joy.
