Over more than 10 intensive days, I immersed myself in the research-heavy script, storyboarding how to translate dense legal battles and shifting political winds into compelling visuals. Adobe After Effects was my workhorse here. Since we were starting fresh, I developed a complete motion graphics package, including a dynamic title sequence, custom text treatments for key information, and conceptual animations to visualize abstract ideas like the 'regulatory hurricane' or the dramatic shift in political sentiment. For instance, illustrating the multi-year SEC vs. Ripple timeline with clarity, or showing Trump's evolving stance through transforming graphics, required significant After Effects work.
