  • Procrastination For Productivity and Props; on Stage vs. Film












    Today on the podcast I sit down with the one…the only…artist, animator, writer, editor, and all around Renaissance man Greg Johnson. Greg is currently taking part in The Short Film Project, where we are making twelve short films over the course of twelve months. He built, operated and provided the voice for Duppet in our first short film. Wrote one of the segments and fabricated the creature for our mini horror anthology. And designed and created the animated characters for An ifitfitz Christmas.





    This week we get to sit down and talk about how he’s learned to embrace procrastination, how he got so damn fast and a little bit about arts education. Enjoy!
