Waco: MADMAN OR MESSIAH

  • Rodrigo Rodriguez

I originated a series of animated sequences inspired by cartoons from the '80s for the drama-documentary 'Waco: Madman or Messiah', about David Koresh. It tells the story of how he rose to power as their "prophet" and then fell from glory in the standoff and fire that made history. The animations were integrated into interviews by some of the survivors and mixed with live-action, news clips and audio recordings of David Koresh. The documentary aired in early January 2018 on prime time A&E television channel, in the US.
