BBC WINTER OLYMPICS

Nature is the nemesis for winter athletes. If the elements aren’t in your favour, four years of gruelling preparation can come to nothing.

We dramatised this notion by giving nature a voice. We wrote poems for TV and radio and got Britain’s most handsome pensioner, Charles Dance, to read them in a chilling tone.

Director Tomek Baginski brought to life a beautiful blended world of live action and CG for the trailer and titles sequences on a tiny budget and made it look like something to come out of Hollywood.
