Sling the Mesh (2025) - animation team

In this episode we interview the student team behind the short 2D film Sling the Mesh (dir. Booker) commissioned by Kath Sansom, founder of the pro-bono campaign of the same name. The intention is to help raise awareness of one of the biggest health scandals of our time; the use of plastic mesh implants which are often used as a cheap quick fix to treat women's abdominal and pelvic floor issues. The team discuss why they chose to work for such a taboo brief and where their ideas came from.
