The Conspiracy - Assassination in Beirut

A docu-drama exploring the assassination of Lebanese prime minister Rafic Hariri.

The Conspiracy: Assassination in Beirut follows the story of the self-made man who transformed a nation, and the investigation into the circumstances of his death.

We created motion graphics to convey key information and highlight the progression of the investigation, based on real pieces of evidence. VFX, graphic design, 2D animation and 3D lights were utilised, featuring a film noir aesthetic that matches the often low resolution images of the evidence, aiding the sense of darkness that pervades throughout the show.
