Winner of the ‘Outstanding Graphic Design & Art Direction’ category at the 2019 News & Documentary Emmy Awards.

As part of the team at Peepshow we created all the animated graphic sequences for the four-part series ‘Inside North Korea’s Dynasty’ for National Geographic Channel. A groundbreaking four-episode documentary series that examines the extraordinary history of the world's only communist dynasty, three generations in the making.

‘Inside North Korea’s Dynasty’ is the ultimate story of a family's power, and the relationship among a father, a son and a grandson. The series provides a look at the Kim dynasty more complex and comprehensive than ever attempted before, revealing the workings behind the formidable family dynamics at the heart of an extraordinary country.
