“Pandemica’s animated world animates a simple truth - that where you live shouldn’t determine whether you get these life-saving shots. Even while many of us still wait our turn, we need to commit to making sure that billions of people around the world aren’t left at the back of the line.”

Bono, ONE co-founder

Written & Creative Directed with Lew Willig, Monty Pera, Don Marshall Wilhelmi, Mark Girand and Illustrator-Animator extraordinaire Andrew Rae for social impact agency WRTHY and ONE.org.

Pandemica’s cast of critters and creatures brings vaccine awareness to life, attracting the attention of the global media, legislators and the public at large. It’s been translated to more than 15 languages and counting, producing 400+ assets and perhaps best of all…it’s been adopted by The World Health Organization :)

Voiced by Bono, Penelope Cruz, Kumail Nanjiani, Connie Britton, Danai Gurira, Michael Sheen, Wanda Sykes and 24 other amazingly talented actors and performers.

Recognition: FAST COMPANY, PEOPLE’S CHOICE, ART DIRECTORS CLUB OF NEW YORK, EFFIE AWARDS, ANTHEM AWARDS, ONE SHOW, SHORTY AWARDS, WEBBY AWARDS… and W.H.O.
