Oliver Jeffers is part of the team behind this year’s TED Conference opening video. Whilst Jeffers isn’t giving a TED talk, you can clearly see his hand in this lovely little film.

Hmm….interesting…don’t quite know what to make of it.

I am obviously waaaay too tired, as I spent the first few seconds of that film looking for his actual hand, before I worked out what you meant.

Sorry Elli, yes, his metaphorical hand. Hope you get a good night’s sleep!

I am EXTREMELY envious of Oliver Jeffers’ studio. His work is endlessly inspirational, encouraging and endearing.

Oliver’s illustration and story-telling are top notch – I love this intro.
