It was a real honor to be asked by NBC to lead the design effort for a film about a heartbreaking story told by an incredibly brave mother. The film has since been nominated for a 2020-2021 Emmy for Outstanding Graphic Design and Art Direction in the News & Documentary category. Thanks to Brandy Zadrozny for bringing this story to light and the NBC news team for bringing me on. Their internal team took my initial key designs and illustrations and animated the whole film in-house. You can read the full article and see the film on the NBC site.
