In this week’s storyboard spotlight, we unravel the creation of “The Big Rort,” where we explore the dark and convoluted world of political finance and the controversial stance on energy policies. This episode creatively illustrates the complexities of political funding, using a satirical narrative that blends real-world dilemmas with animated antics. Our animatics this week delve into visualising complex ideas like superannuation investments and government subsidies in renewable energy, through dynamic scenes and characters such as Paul Keating in a bubble bath, reminiscent of a famous scene from “The Big Short.” The animation process involved crafting sequences that bring humour and clarity to the intricate web of financial interests that influence policy decisions, ensuring each frame was both informative and entertaining.
