ABOUT

Sports, drama and debating are separate activities at high school, but out in the real world – in rare and glorious occasions – they overlap. The TV show “Burning Issue” is a forum where the gloves come off and all aspects of sport and its stars are debated.

Sports content creators Inverleigh approached Jumbla to produce broadcast TV packaging for this slick and unique concept. We whipped it up by combining photomontage and 2D animation.

The client wanted us to create something reminiscent of the Pop Art movement, in particular the “comic book” work of Roy Lichtenstein, who produced compositions that documented but also parodied with tongue-in-cheek humour. The stylistic influences would also be reflective of the show’s vibe: playful, insightful and amusing.
