Studio Macuna led the visual storytelling across this four-part docuseries for Channel 4, crafting GFX, VFX, and title design that amplify the series’ themes of manipulation, digital deceit, and psychological tension. Through layered photomontage, stylised reconstructions, and interface recreations, we built a cohesive visual language that mirrors the disorientation and emotional unraveling faced by the victims.
Each episode unpacks a different real-life scam, from a fake nobleman to a master con artist who infiltrated entire communities, revealing not only the tactics of deception but also the resilience of those determined to expose the truth.
