“The Power of e”

Entrepreneurship and innovation are fundamental drivers of sustainable growth.   A thriving entrepreneurial culture is supported by education, investment, and infrastructure.  Intel Corporation, building on its heritage of innovation, collaborates with governments, educators, NGOs and industry to help build capacity in each of these areas.  So individuals have the opportunity to obtain the skills, technology and resources they need to build successful businesses that drive innovation, create employment, accelerate economic growth and have a positive impact on society.

Intel called on Alligator Planet to produce a short animated movie to illustrate how “The Power of e” (entrepreneurship) can change the lives of people, their families, their communities and even their countries. With a story concept by Intel’s Manav Subodh and creative direction by UC Berkeley and Princeton professor John Danner, we were challenged to tell this story simply, with only pictures, music,  and some onscreen text, to appeal to the largest possible audience.

With drawings and direction by Eli Noyes, animation by Jeffery Roth and music and sound by Disher Music & Sound, we animated a four-minute film that tells a universal story.
