The Wisdom of Pessimism
by Claudio Salason Vimeo

Description
How do you ensure contentment? A good pessimist knows just how. In this film for The School of Life, I teamed up with an amazing group of artists, exploring a mix of different animation techniques to tell you how you can become a good pessimist. All this is written and narrated by the great philosopher Alain de Botton. ---- SCRIPT Alain de Botton DIRECTOR Claudio Salas DESIGNERS Stephen Kelleher — www.stephenkelleher.com Emily Suvanvej — www.emy-su.com Bee Grandinetti — www.beegrandinetti.
