Welcome to Easy Eases—a podcast designed to help creatives learn while they create.
Think of it as a tutorial you can listen to—because let’s be real, your…
My name is Chris Manfre, I am a designer, animator and teacher and I started this podcast because I wanted to level up my design and animation skills without stopping my workflow. I built a space where you can absorb new concepts and learn about design tools while you’re deep in a project, rendering a scene, or finessing keyframes.
I need to let you know, I built this with AI, so that is not me talking. Maybe one day it will be. My ultimate goal is to help designers learn new things while working.
Each episode dives into design, animation, and motion principles in a way that’s easy to follow—no screens, no distractions, just pure creative knowledge.
I would love to know if this information has helped you, please reach out!
Happy designing, friends!
