“Little Shrew is released on Bush's official website on Friday. It is free to watch, but encourages viewers to support organisations helping children in conflict.
The short film, which Bush worked with an illustrator to create, was partly inspired by Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
"I started working on it a couple of years ago, it was not long after the Ukrainian war broke out, and I think it was such a shock for all of us," Bush explained.
"It's been such a long period of peace we'd all been living through. And I just felt I wanted to make a little animation that would feature, originally, a little girl. It was really the idea of children caught up in war. I wanted to draw attention to how horrific it is for children.
"And so I came up with this idea for a storyboard and felt that, actually, people would be more empathetic towards a creature rather than a human. So I came up with the idea of it being a little shrew."
