Client: FlightStory Studio
I worked for FlightStory Studio for 2 months, on paternity cover. During this time I worked on 2 podcast episodes a week. A favourite of mine is Steven Bartletts conversation with John Kiriakou, the man who publicly blew the whistle on the CIA's torture programme. It was important the style reflected what the episode is about, as you can tell you can instantly recognise the redacted boxes, the decoded words / names and illustrations from secret documents. We decided seeing these (real) documents within 2.5D space was the most effective. The episode has seen over 8 million views.
