National Geographic TV: Saints & Strangers Web Experience
Once a year, National Geographic Television creates a tentpole miniseries based upon a significant historical event. In recent years, second screen competition - having the television on but engaging with online content instead - became a major concern. For Saints & Strangers, we created an online game that tracked the miniseries, releasing new characters and challenges after each weekly episode.
For an art director, this was a tough but exciting project. We had to scrub through dailies for shots to use as backgrounds, work with up-and-coming illustrators, and dive into constructing experimental UI to keep interest high.
