The Wild Honey Pie, Bela Unclecat & Yulia Drobova present:
------------------------------------------------------------------
A spider lives in the sink and there hasn't been water for a long time. Rolling the cistern cart in the sun is not the most pleasant thing to do, and it's a long way from home. There is almost no water left for our dog. And my mom gets frustrated that it's so hard to make food without tap water. That's okay, that's all going to change soon, they promised us a running water line!
The video tells a story of the Native American water shortage. More than 2 million Americans live without basic access to safe drinking water and sanitation.
Native American households are 19 times more likely than white а households to lack indoor plumbing.
In some Native American communities in the United States, residents drive 40 miles every few days to haul water home for drinking, cooking, and bathing. The story follows the life of one small family and how the access to potable tap water changes lives.

Process: the beginning
We started from the very rough sketches: searching for the characters and styles, drafting the storyboard...
Choosing color palette, creating numerous backgrounds
Process: we are done with the storyboard. It is always so interesting to see the sketch and the final result as a frame in the video
People from a line waiting to get some water
Background's stages were done with acrylic paints
In the beginning it was a man, in the final video we decided to turn him into a boy's mother

The new ideas always come up during the work
