The Story of Cholera


I've been working on this one for quite some time! 

Some months ago, Global Health media Project , a health organization dedicated to educating and helping people in developing countries through medical videos, asked me to create an animated short on how to treat and prevent the cholera disease. 

The production itself, for various reasons, took longer than I anticipated, but it was important for me to follow through and get this one out, so when I started working as director of animation for Ari Folman's "The Congress" a few months ago, I continued working on it nights and weekends (Which is partially the reason I didn't post anything for such a long time). 
All in all, I think this long journey paid off, and so I'm very proud to present this short film.

    1. It is now available in several languages (including 2 dialects of Haitian Creole, Spanish, Hindi, French, Swahili, Krio, Malinke, and others). There is also a flash-card version where the story can be told in whatever language one chooses.

  4. Awsome work Yoni.. great job..
    Really nice animation and the story flow is amazing. Though it is 4:26 mins long, it carries the viewer to the end.
