Animating the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

As a follow-up to Wednesday’s Blog Action Day 08, it seemed appropriate to share this beautiful video celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights. Created by Seth Brau the clip is an elegant portrayal of a powerful statement:

Originally written by Eleanor Roosevelt 60 years ago, it’s astonishing that less than five percent of the world even knows that the document exists. The message rings particularly true now and we’re proud to be associated with Seth, whose work enhances the Declaration of Human Rights with his motions graphics to spread the word to both the younger and older generations.

  1. This is gorgeous. I’m already obsessed with that peachy/coral color – add the plight of the human race and you might have my #1 online video of the year.

    The 60th Anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights (International Human Rights Day) is December 10, 2008.
