Meet the Furries (BBC Radio 1 & iPlayer)

FURRIES HIGH RES.jpg

I produced three short contributor-led pieces for BBC Radio 1 to accompany the BBC iPlayer film Meet the Furries.

We explored Furries, the misunderstood community of people who like to dress up as animals. A lot of people think it’s just a fetish - but for many, it’s just a way of making friends. We followed Luisa, a new Furry on the scene, as she went to her first Furry convention.

In the clip below, I followed Luisa (whose full-body fursuit can heat up to over 40 degrees) into the Fursuit Lounge, a room full of giant industrial fans where furries can cool down and dry off their sweaty suits. It was…. an interesting place.
