The campaign aimed to highlight real-world examples of workplace violations and clearly outline where whistleblowers can safely seek help.\n\nTo tackle this complex legal topic, I created an educational explainer video that seamlessly blends mixed-media collage with clean vector graphics for a modern, approachable look.\n\n\nThe Creative Process & Workflow\n\nWorking from the initial script and concept provided by the Transparency International team, I took charge of the visual direction, design, and production:\nStyle Exploration & Moodboarding: I prepared a moodboard featuring three distinct visual directions. The team chose a hybrid collage and vector style, offering the ideal balance of serious subject matter and engaging visual flair.\n\n1️⃣ Storyboard & Narrative Flow: With the visual direction chosen, I created a detailed frame-by-frame storyboard to map out the story and ensure a seamless narrative flow for complex legal scenarios.\n\n2️⃣ Style Frames & Mixed-Media Asset Creation: Then, I built key style frames to finalize and approve the exact look and feel, crafting custom mixed-media assets by combining clean vector elements with textured collage cut-outs.\n\n3️⃣ Animation, Voiceover & Sound Design: Finally, I animated the compositions in After Effects and synchronized the footage with the voiceover recorded by Martina Foldynová (host of TI’s podcast Stošestka), completing the video with custom sound effects, background music, and open captions.","author_name":"Eva Urbancikova","author_url":"https://framerate.tv/profile/evanimate","thumbnail_url":"https://nddkbgiieurtcomzihzq.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/thumbnails/ac457f6d-cc68-4fbb-bc2a-dd0fa3e6d8d1/c28eeb7a-0db0-432f-9cd5-f0cd5a7e5f1e/thumbnail.jpg","thumbnail_width":1280,"thumbnail_height":720,"width":1280,"height":720,"html":""}
