Flat Earth is a desktop documentary, which takes the viewer on a seven-minute trip around the world so that we encounter a series of fragments taken from real peoples blogs. These fragments are knitted together to form a kind of story or singular narrative.
The visual effect is not unlike that of Google Earth, although significantly here, nearly all of the visual material for, Flat Earth is taken from satellite imagery freely available on the web.
Flat Earth is an Animate Projects commission with Arts Council England and Channel Four Television. Animatics work by Cavan Convery . Script by Jon Thomson, Alison Craighead & Steve Rushton
