QUESTION

What can Mexican anti-communist cartoons from the 1950s reveal about the nature of propaganda and exploitation?

GOAL

Write and design a multimedia story on the lost-and-found history of Dibujos Animados S.A. cartoons.

Project Overview

After attending the US premiere of a series of clandestine anti-communist cartoons commissioned by the United States during the Cold War, I knew there was a story to tell. I reported, wrote, and designed "Hecho en Mexico" in both English and Spanish to share the history of the cartoons to bilingual audiences. (The website is no longer live, but you can view a walkthrough below.)

The Process (COMING SOON)

Let’s connect!

I love meeting new people and learning new things.
