I love working on documentaries. I teamed up with the staff at Wall Street Journal to create a title sequence, locator maps and footage based graphics for this film. This look integrates collage style photo treatments as well as steppy frame rate animation. The team and I heavily leaned on footage backplates to assist in visualizing data. Below are some initial design concepts, motion tests, and my director cut title sequence.
