Tanama’s Story of Tree Planting in Haiti

Supershero Tanama stars in an Instagram video (click image to view on YouTube) created by Timberland to highlight their partnership with the Smallholder Farmers Alliance. "Our planet needs more trees to combat climate change," says Tanama in the video, "and we need to grow more food to feed a growing world population. Here in Haiti we've come up with a way to do both at the same time and it all starts with smallholder farmers." 

This outstanding short video was produced in Hispaniola. Thony Loui was the creative director and drew the images in his studio in Haiti; the video was shot and edited by Haiti-based filmmaker Thomas Norielle; and, the images were turned into animation by motion graphic specialist Carlos Juan Mateo in the Dominican Republic.
