10 Facts — Kan 11 — key visual
The challenge
Turn dense historical subjects into short episodes that hold attention on a feed, without flattening the history into decoration or losing the weight of the source material.
The idea
Build each episode from the archive rather than around it. Period photographs, propaganda posters, maps and postcards are cut against flat graphic shapes and heavy Hebrew type, so the original material carries the story and the design only sets its pace.
The system
A consistent kit across episodes: paper-grain grounds, a cyan-and-black accent palette, hard-edged colour blocks, numbered markers and typographic call-outs that hold a collage together while it moves.
The outcome
Produced as an episodic explainer series for Kan 11.
