UBC Focus

A quarterly magazine highlighting research from UBC's Faculty of Science

Educational: art direction, video and podcast production
Ongoing

UBC's Faculty of Science asked us to create a set of graphics and digital media to support Focus. We have produced cover art, a podcast, and social media videos for twitter and instagram.

UBC scientists are studying how microplastics impact the animals in the Galápagos Islands. Each year an estimated eight million tonnes of plastic end up in the ocean, often breaking down into microplastics, particles or fibres less than five millimetres in size. There is evidence that many marine animals ingest microplastics either directly through the water they filtrate or drink, or indirectly through their prey. So what can we learn from studying the diets of penguins in the Galapagos?

Our team completed pre-production, filming, and post-production of this video.

UBC researchers are studying the fall webworm, to see if they can uncover how new species form. Can this charismatic caterpillar help us understand how speciation changes with latitude?

UBC chemists are finding new ways to make drug testing easy, free, and effective. Professor Glenn Sammis and Graduate Student Sara Guzman explain more about their work to combat the toxic drug crisis in BC.
