Welcome to The Creative Brief Podcast. Today, you're in for a real treat. I sit down with the sensational Amy and Jen Hood of Hoodzpah Design - a boutique brand agency in Southern California with a dream roster of clients including Nike, Disney, Adobe, and SeatGeek. We talk about how they've diversified their business with books, courses, fonts, and swag. I ask them how they handle being design influencers, and if they ever get nervous speaking at big events. And they share their secret formula for sparking creativity - which may or may not include Coors Banquet and country music records. If you haven't discovered Amy and Jen yet, you're about to meet your new favorite design duo. And if you are a long-time fan like me, I did my best to dive into topics they don't usually cover. It's a great episode, and I'm stoked you're here for it.

“Working with people is something you need practice with. Everybody has their own agenda, everybody has things that are important to them. You have to respect that but there’s times you have to fight for what you believe in.” Insung Kim joined the show to discuss his cross country journey from enivironmental design in Southern California to Kansas City to now working in the South as Senior Creative Director for the Atlanta Braves. Insung discusses how his immigrant parents supported his creativity leading him to attend art school and eventaully find a job as a designer in environmental graphics at a company where he stayed 15 years. Looking for a change, Insung moved his family to the middle of the country to work for internationally-known sports & entertainment architectural firm, Populous (formerly HOK Sport). While designing graphics for the Braves new Atlanta stadium, Insung struck up a relationship with Braves executives and was offered a job as Creative Director where he now leads a team of creatives and manages the Braves' iconic brand. He sheds light on how to have difficult conversations and what we as sports designers should really focus on and get joy in instead of the cool hero imagery. Listen along as Insung shares his story.
