Heartfelt Silhouette Animations

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Dalai Lama Center Wants to Teach Children Compassion

— December 31, 2012 — Art & Design
Giant Ant created a touching video using silhouetted animations that transform before your eyes in order to promote Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education. The short mini movie is called 'Educate the Heart' and it talks about teaching children “compassion, acceptance and tolerance” in order for them to be successful in life.

Many parents place emphasis on their child’s educational endeavors such as encouraging to get good grades and to be responsible when it comes to academics. It is just important to teach your child about being kind and open to diversity. Giant Ant accents their flowing image for the Dalai Lama Center with peaceful piano music and the voice of Shane Koycza. The result is a highly enticing video that encourages you to stop and think.
