The New Yorker-Best Animated Illustrations

WINNER
The New Yorker
David Remnick, Editor
Nicholas Blechman, Creative Director
“The Mormon TikTok Moms Are All of Us,” illustration by Fromm Studio, September 14

No detail was left unconsidered in this short but powerful looped animation—from the tradcore-like knit texture of the women’s clothing to the way the animation frame itself drops and shifts to follow their gyrating choreography. The result is a glossily poignant commentary on contemporary womanhood in the Mormon community and beyond.
