Creative direction and production for a four‑part animated series, based on the podcast The Ezra Klein Show, in partnership with Dropbox.
Flow Thinking was a four‑part animated series created to promote The Ezra Klein Show, presented by Dropbox. Each episode featured a unique animated interpretation of key soundbites from interviews with innovators, thinkers, and artists.
As Producer and Creative Director, I commissioned four distinct animation artists — Dante Zaballa, Ariel Costa, Jimmy Simpson, and Louis Wesolowsky — to interpret selected clips, curating a unified visual direction across diverse styles. Each artist was assigned a specific color palette to maintain cohesion while preserving their individual aesthetic. I also selected and edited the featured soundbites, ensuring each animation amplified the core ideas of the conversation.
