Qurious Folk
Driving positive change and facilitating meaningful social impact through storytelling is a major force that propels the talented team behind Folktale, an innovative mobile platform connecting teams with real time insights and diverse perspectives.
As fate would have it Folktale and Patch Creative were operating out of a shared studio space when Covid-19 so rudely interrupted 2020. Both teams sharing a passion for creativity and social connection they did what artists and storytellers do best and made limoncello out of lemons by collaborating on an online series of interviews; Qurious Folk.
Speaking with people who have been impacted by the fallout of Covid-19 across many industries and from the distant corners of the world the collaboration has resulted in fifty dynamic and engaging short film stories that promote empathy, inspiration and generosity.
These reflections are supported by the colourful capture of key details that Jimmy achieved through his expert graphic recording and animation skills. Using a warm colour palette reminiscent of 1960’s design truly brought an extra dimension of anticipation and fun to the project.

“Working with Jimmy Patch on the Qurious Folk series gave me a unique insight into the incredible skill required to listen, empathise and clearly represent complex human narrative in illustrative form. A joy to watch it in action.”
