CANCELLED : Animated Apidae Adventures
Bee-Sharp Honeybee is a brand new music and animation project currently in development. Inspired by the sound of the bee-buzz, it's an ambitious project, which will culminate in a live string orchestra work, to be performed with a live stream of bees and animated visuals, derived from hand-illustrated graphic scores. Foremost, it's a contribution to help spread the word about bee culture, promote bee research and educate the public about the importance of bees to human survival.
The initial music sketches (composed by Rae Howell) and short documentary of the initial research process (directed by Deacon Warner) are hot off the press!! The Res Box events explore the film, the music making, and the animation creation, featuring interactive and behind-the-scenes activities to give you a real-time experience of the development of Bee-Sharp Honeybee.
Bee a part of the animation creation for Bee-Sharp Honeybee: An interactive and hands-on experience with resident animator Emily Downes. You can create, construct and immerse yourself in the actual stop-motion creation that is headed for the final Bee-Sharp audio-visual extravaganza. Who knows what kind of spectacle we can create?!
