S05E12: JM Blay — Art is a Lifestyle
Hailing from a family with a long history of artists, JM
Blay seemed destined to enter the art world. As if
predestined, once he started drawing, he never
stopped.
His love of art developed into a fascination with
photography and movement. Unbeknownst to him, JM had
stumbled into the world of motion design and his “weird
fascination” became the cornerstone of his career.
JM’s versatile, unpretentious approach to creative
collaboration has served him well, leading to a 20+ year
career and collaborations on everything from film to music
videos; working with major brands from around the globe
including Netflix, Adidas, Doritos, Paul McCartney, and
Lady Gaga among many others.
In this candid conversation, JM shares insights into the
world and history of motion design and how AI is
disrupting the status quo. Along the way, he also shares
valuable tips on working with difficult clients, staying
creative, and finding a work/life balance.
