“Draw My Life” Animated Videos

from The Atlas Society 2021 Annual Report

Atlas Advocates

Five years ago, our videos consisted largely of academic lectures that drew a couple of hundred views at most. Today’s

animated videos regularly attract over a million views and tens of thousands of engagements each.

This “Draw My Life” video series combines speed-ramped hand drawing of action and characters with voice-over, music, and effects. But the appeal of this genre is less the production quality than the authenticity—the human element of the artist at work, and the boldness of the moral message driven forward by the unfolding narrative. It’s this unique mix that has drawn more than 45 million views to our “Draw My Life” videos across all our social media platforms.

The translations of these videos have seen enormous success—with 10 different languages already under our belts, we are ready to take on more, as we want as many eyes on the content as possible. If you are interested in supporting the translation of one of these videos, email tas@atlassociety.org!
