PATRIOT ACT
As the Episode Lead for the Emmy-winning first season of Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj, I directed the design and animation efforts that defined the show’s visual storytelling. Utilizing a high-resolution LED stage and innovative motion design, we transformed complex cultural and political narratives into engaging, visually striking episodes.
I collaborated closely with the writing and news teams to craft compelling visual narratives, developed and pitched ideas to Hasan and the team, and oversaw all stage graphics and visual content.
Additionally, I provided real-time feedback from the control room during tapings to ensure everything looked perfect on stage.
