Longtermism

DOCUMENTARY SERIES | FRENCH (WITH CC) | 2022 | FRANCE

MY ROLE : WRITER - PRODUCER/DIRECTOR - EDITOR

In 2022, I had the chance to receive funding to produce a 3 part series on Longtermism in French to raise awareness on this philosophical concept. Longtermism is an ethical perspective that emphasises the importance of positively influencing the long-term future as a key moral priority. This philosophy is particularly associated with the effective altruism movement and advocates for actions that can mitigate existential risks to humanity, ensuring that future generations can thrive.

​

I opted for 2D animation as an effective medium to communicate the concept's complex messages.

The series was published on the French YouTube channel The Flares
