Inside North Korea's Dynasty

Winner of ‘Outstanding Graphic Design & Art Direction’ at the 40th News & Documentary Emmy Awards 2019.

‘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 in a more complex and comprehensive way than ever attempted before, revealing the workings behind the formidable family dynamics at the heart of an extraordinary country.

I teamed up with Peepshow to help craft the 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.
