  • The End of the Beginning for Motion Design with Ryan Summers and John LePore | Part One

    Animation… broadcast design… motion graphics… mograph… motion design…

    Looking back over the past 30 years, our field has exploded, regardless of what you call it.

    In this veritable tour de force, I’m joined by futurists John LePore (formerly of Perception NYC) and Ryan Summers (IF, DK, Spillt) who argue convincingly that we are just getting started.

    Hold on for the ride as we lift the veil, break down walls, and help you make sense of our rapidly evolving industry.

    It’s the end of the beginning for motion design, folks. 

    And that’s a very, very good thing…

    So put on your shades, because the future is super bright.

  • RevThoughts: End-of-Year Focus

    FOMO is big and we all need to learn how to snap out of it.

    Think about it: you’re afraid if you focus on THIS, you might miss out on THAT.

    So you spread your bets. You play small. You put a little energy into a lot of different projects, opportunities, and problems because...

    You’re not confident which will actually pay off.

    It’s ok. No judgment. I do it. We all do it.

    So the question is: what if we could focus on just a few things with CONFIDENCE?
