The Science Museum
Stephen Hawking
When the Science Museum approached us about animating a film about Stephen Hawking's famous equation, we didn't need long to decide - we jumped at the chance. The film explores what happens at the edge of a black hole, touching on general relativity, quantum theory and thermodynamics, and is projected at large scale inside the Museum's Stephen Hawking exhibition.
The visual style blends hand-painted textures with geometric patterns inspired by science textbooks - beautiful, mesmeric, and perfectly suited to the subject. Directed by ARC, with sound design by Joe Watkinson, and voiced by Cora Kirk.
The film plays on a loop at the Science Museum and toured nationally.
