Podcast appearances and mentions of gavin strange

This year marks 5 years since our maiden episode with Richard Shotton in February 2018. To celebrate Call to Action® turning 5, we asked the …Gasp! team to rummage through all 130 episodes for us to re-release some of their favourites.  Back in January 2020, we kicked off the year with fizzy, fuzzy energy. The fizz and fuzz faded come March 2020, but before that, we packed our plasticine and carried out a search of The Avon to pick up Bristol's finest maker of noise, Gavin Strange.  By day, Gavin is Director and Designer at the beloved Aardman Animations, the Academy Award winning studio behind Wallace & Gromit. It is probably easier to ask what Gavin does not do, a sucker for a night-time side project, under the pseudonym of Jam Factory, he's also an author, toy inventor and speaker on the global circuit. In one of the …Gasp! team's all time favourite episodes, Gavin talks to us candidly on having car parts thrown at his head, pixels, plasticine, what Morph is really like, the unlikely crossover of Maya Angelou and Dragon Ball Z and why we need more wonky things.  Feel better about marketing with Episode 28 of Call to Action® with Gavin Strange.  Follow Gavin on Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn Check out his website And get his book: Do Fly Timestamps (01:59) - Quick fire questions (02:40) - First jobs, having car parts thrown at his head, getting a job in design (10:00) - Tinkering and creating his alter ego JamFactory  (13:15) - What it's like working at Aardman Animations  (16:39) - Pixels vs plasticine and long standing characters like Morph  (23:30) - Being time buddies with Beyonce and how he gets so much done  (33:10) - Doing silly stuff and his directorial debut (41:50) - Writing his book Do Fly  (53:00) - Listener questions  (1:00:00) - 4 pertinent posers  Gavin's book recommendations are:  Feck Perfuction by James Victore  Draplin Design Co: Pretty Much Everything by Aaron Draplin  Why?

Gavin is a true creative polymath, stretching his hands from directing, design, music, photography, writing and speaking. Gavin has been working with the Oscar winning animation studio Aardman for 14 years, mecca of stop motion, perhaps best known for bringing to life the wonderful and childhood shaping characters Wallace and Grommit. Gav is hilarious, articulate so curious and creative, and one of the most grateful humans we have had on the show. During our chat, we go through what it's like being a multi disciplinary creative in a world where specialising is typically more coveted, how being technology and medium agnostic can open you up to unique crossover and connections and he absolutely hits the nail on the head with the topic of style and finding your voice. Gav takes us through a snapshot of his process when directing the stunning and emotional stop motion animated short film, Turtle Journey.  I Hope you enjoy this episode where we pay tribute to the cement layers and manual labourers of the world, wig out over disrupting the space time continuum and Gav and I accidentally invent the newest version of LowFi beats to chill to.   Gavin Strange JamFactory @jamfactory JamFactory Twitter Aardman @Aardmananimations     Links The Imagineering Story  Peter Lord  Turtle Journey Film  Creature comforts  Morph  All This Mayhem  Seven title sequence  Teenage Engineering OP-1      Quotes "I love everything and I want to try and do everything whenever I can."
