Talking Digital Producing for Sports Media with Ashley Gutierrez

Saison 4 · Épisode 3

mercredi 22 juin 2022 • Durée 35:54

This week Ashley Gutierrez, a junior producer at Fresh Tape, a sports media production company based in Denver, walks us through her role in a recent project between Twitter, HBCUs, and the NBA. She sees her role as the blueprint to everything – from the pitch, to planning, finding the right people to execute her idea, managing the talent and clients, and even picking up a camera or editing when necessary. Living in the “we just have to make it happen” world, she makes sure the projects get done on time and, most importantly, within budget. Originally from Miami, Ashley and I discuss moving to Denver during the pandemic and the transition from intern to full time. Her advice is don’t think too much about what’s on your reel, putting the experimental stuff you do in your free time is what gets you a job doing what you really want to do. Also, learn how to light a set… it’s what makes an image beautiful.

Talking Digital Product Design with Patrick Drake

Saison 4 · Épisode 2

lundi 14 mars 2022 • Durée 42:50

This week, Patrick Drake, a product designer for Dealerware, an automotive tech company located in Austin, discusses how you can’t separate UI from UX because they inherently enhance each other towards a product’s overall goals. He discusses why demonstrating sound problem solving in your work and the ability to walk someone through your thought process is the most effective skill a designer can develop. Patrick shares his process for usability testing, downplaying biometric eye tracking in favor of fast, high-fidelity prototypes because you don’t have to guess what someone is thinking after a biometrics test. We talk about using parallel work examples to get a job doing something new and how sending perfect work isn’t as important as just showing some level of competency when starting out. Lastly Patrick compares the autonomy and depth within an in-house design role vs the fast turnaround of project based freelance work at a design agency - it’s all about the iterative self-sustaining loop of finding and improving novel problems.

Talking Sports Photography in the NFL with Tori Richman

Saison 3 · Épisode 7

lundi 15 mars 2021 • Durée 42:36

This week Tori Richman (@toririchman_photography), Team Photographer for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, talks about the trust she’s developed with the players, coaches, and content team to photograph past the helmets and numbers on the field to better humanize their experience. We discuss shooting Super Bowls for the Bucs and NFL, game day routines, and the comfort of being nervous. As one of 3 female team photographers in the NFL, Tori speaks to the importance of representation in a male prevalent field and getting over the fear some women have of “not knowing enough about sports” to be successful in shooting them. We dig into trimming down student photography portfolios and the idea that having 150 best photos means you’re lying to yourself; being able to take the L on a photo that’s almost there but isn’t technically correct is more important than filling your portfolio with fluff. Lastly, we discuss building confidence in your work and giving yourself a break because if the first thing doesn’t work out, something else will.

Talking Augmented Reality Design with Alex Lang

Saison 3 · Épisode 7

lundi 8 mars 2021 • Durée 44:03

This week Alex Lang (@destroy.design), Augmented Reality expert and Director of Visual Propaganda at Liquid Death, and I nerd out about the future of Augmented Reality and how it involves flipping your camera around to augment the world instead of our faces. We discuss how the technology is in its creative infancy and we need to move past the “fart app” stage of AR where we produce the first thing that comes to our mind. Alex explains the idea behind being a Creative Technologist, someone who can translate between the coders and designers, and how it allows him to take a big idea and dissect it into how it actually works. We dig into the world of branded AR, how difficult it is to pitch clients interactive ideas, and the absolute necessity of prototyping. Lastly, Alex discusses the AR experiments he's working on and how he embraces technology as “the digital guy” to push the vision and visuals of a project.

This week Lauren Jonas (@laurenjonas_), a Charleston-based Wedding Photographer, breaks down what it means to be a hybrid photographer and breaks down what she loves about shooting on film.

Lauren fondly remembers her mentors and how you can’t be afraid to ask them ALL the questions; they only want to help make you better. We dive into building a network, both on and offline, and how word of mouth is the only advertising you need. She talks about the day-of timeline and gives us a peek into her amazing equipment kit, detailing all the well-thought-out extras she brings to simply wow her clients. Lastly, Lauren talks about why she fell in love with creating an heirloom not just for the couple but for their future family - it’s a legacy you’re helping capture.

This week, Megan (greydanusdesign.com), a graphic designer for TV and Film (This Is Us, The OA, Real Steel, Fast & Furious 8 ), explains her ability to mimic any style by being an expert in faking expertise, and how her work is like putting the design frosting on the production cake.

She details her strategy for breaking into the industry when you don’t live in LA, and how to find production designers that you want to work for. Lastly we recognize that it’s okay to not know what you want to do but acknowledge that no one is going to find a job for you - you need to show you can do the work before they pay you to do it.
