ZDF: graphic services/animations for the political programme "frontal"

One of the premium brands within the ZDF portfolio is the investigative magazine programme "frontal". We use illustrations, explanatory graphics and animations to visualise complicated facts on demand. We are available every day to support the target group-orientated communication of information via TV, the media library and YouTube.

How much of the Yellow Bag waste is really recycled? What role do disposable agents play in attacks on the German economy and infrastructure? And how does our justice system deal with the killing of unarmed civilians in the Gaza war by snipers with German-Israeli citizenship?

Every day we are ready to visualise figures in bar charts, sometimes planned well in advance, sometimes spontaneously on demand, to trace paths on satellite images or to illustrate facts in creatively produced vector animations and motion design comic panels.

Our contributions can be seen during TV broadcasts, in the ZDF media library or on YouTube. We create well over 100 visualisations a year, in close collaboration with a wide variety of authors and on a wide range of socio-political topics. Creative tasks that challenge us, that we grow with - and that make a difference.
