Lemn Sissay `Gift of Time`
“Half a million alumni, 40,000 students, 12,000 staff and 1 Chancellor every seven years”
Each year the University holds their Making a Difference Awards and this year will be the last for Chancellor Lemn Sissay as his seven year post comes to a close this summer. When Lemn became Chancellor he made a promise to ‘inspire and be inspired’.
The brief was to turn a poem into a short film. This would form a great piece of branding to highlight the impact of the University but also serve as a legacy for Lemn Sissay, celebrating his time at the University. The film needed to compliment the poem and also allow for multiple uses across various channels.
