I worked as a broadcast designer on the second season of The Al Franken Show on the sundance channel.

My daily tasks included making maps and the occasional funny/weird graphic. I also created many segment opens for our recurring guests and helped tweak the existing graphics package. I made our lower 3rd explainer graphic, a new look for our quotes and the "negative email of the day" treatment.
