Weediquette is a show about all things, you guessed it, weed-related. Each episode had several minute-long graphics to help explain complex topics in a fun way. I loved working on this show, not only because the show-team was a joy (and surprisingly prepared and organized for a show about stoners) but also because every episode is packed with information and presented in such a fun way.
The infographics of the show break down a wide scope of topics explaining intricate systems in a simplified, easily digestible icon-based aesthetic and limited green-based color palette. The animations, up 90 seconds each, illustrate and explain complicated subjects like systematic racism in marijuana laws, the cycle of opioid addition, a pattern of orphaned children among pot-smoking parents, and medical breakdowns of brain trauma in professional athletes.
