“Emily’s Story” is the true story of a child’s life threatening illness and the joy Children’s Wish Foundation brought to her and her family’s life. Beautifully animated by Crush, "Emily's Story" is one film in a campaign for the Children’s Wish Foundation via KBS+P Toronto and sponsored by Gravol.
The creative team at KBS+P Toronto, copywriter Cristina Simonetto and art director John Roberton, developed a wonderful, gentle script before looking for an animation company to bring it to life. The team at Crush team jumped at the opportunity to contribute to such poignant story, and were excited to participate in a project that not only bought a children’s story to life, but also raised awareness for such an amazing cause.
Crush’s Julia Deakin designed Emily and all the characters, and worked with Crush’s Yoho Yue and Jullian Ablaza to bring Emily’s world to life. Jullian worked with talented illustrators, Ashley Barron and Flavia Lopez to create the world using a mix of paper and other media.
Yoho Yue and Joel Tellier rigged and animated the characters, with subtlety and sensitivity to Emily’s story. The team at Apollo Music took the pictures and added a beautiful, haunting score.
Everyone who touched the project was profoundly moved by Emily’s story and are so proud of the final piece.
Every child should enjoy a life full of laughter, shared joy, and memories with the people they love. Since 1984, The Children’s Wish Foundation of Canada has granted over 17,000 wishes to children with life-threatening illnesses. Children’s Wish is proud of its tradition of never refusing a wish to an eligible child. The maker of Gravol has been proudly supporting Children’s Wish since 2008, helping kids like Emily.
