In July 2020 it was just my creative director, one motion designer and me without an office yet, starting off what is now called the VIDEOGRAFIK team of BILD. We grew the team from one motion designer to a team, which has a couple of different areas of specialisation like operating, Viz, Touchscreen, Promotion, new packages, studio design, set design and the dailies. In total we have more than 43 people working for the Videografik department at this point ( September 2021), be it employed or freelancing.
During that 14 months we have designed packages for 14 documentaries and 46 shows, which we created over thousands of daily graphics for.
Since 11 days we are ON AIR now. For broadcast TV our department has created not only a new channel brand in less than 6 months, but also created 8 new shows in the last two. Counting this there has been a new show developed almost every week, while we kept on with the daily graphics such as maps, explainers, corona charts (and there where many…), timelines, …
All this has happened in 3 different studios, one Oval Office set and green screens. We have moved our team to a different floor, build a wall to have an office, tore it down again, cause we grew bigger. Not to forget that in all this work we grew together as a team. From all different backgrounds, different nations and different specilizations, but with ONE goal: Creating a great product AND a great team at the same time.
