In this week's Monday Meeting, we were thrilled to host special guests Joey Korenman and Joe Donaldson, the creative minds behind Rolo, a transformative platform designed to connect artists and studios seamlessly. They gave us a deep dive into the vision, design, and goals of Rolo, and highlighted its potential to reshape the landscape of the motion design industry. The duo talked about the conception and purpose of Rolo, its distinction from the artist-optimized School of Motion, and the promising prospects of community involvement in the platform. The intentionality behind Rolo's development was clear as they're focused on creating a scalable, self-sustaining model, sidestepping features that would require heavy financial or manpower investments. Ryan Summers, a Rolo user and Creative Director at SPILLT, shared his firsthand experience of the platform's efficacy. He underscored the accuracy and speed of Rolo in aligning the right talent with the right project and introducing his team to new creative voices. We also explored the challenges encountered while building Rolo, such as balancing the artist and client rosters and the potential of integrating testimonials and case studies to spotlight successful collaborations. The conversation also highlighted the importance of showcasing soft skills to stand out in a highly competitive market. Joey and Joe shared their approach to vetting artists for Rolo, aiming to foster diversity and avoid creating an echo chamber of talent. Their commitment to inclusivity extends to exploring partnerships with community-based organizations. The discussion wrapped up with insights into using Rolo's search tool effectively and the future prospects of the platform, including providing education and personalized service to clients for a better understanding of its technical aspects. So, tune in for an engaging and insightful discussion about Rolo and its impact on the motion design community!

2022 may be remembered as the year things got back to “normal,” but also as a year of big changes, and our industry is no exception. The economy was booming, but now may be stalling. The rapid development of AI tools makes our jobs ever easier, but also might be stealing them away. In-person work and events have returned, but are people ready to show up? New tools are making serious in-roads against the established giants. Freelance rates had been booming for the past couple years, but a flood of tech layoffs may shake everything up.  School of Motion's fearless founder Joey Korenman is joined by Creative Directors EJ Hassenfratz and Kyle Hamrick, former SOM Creative Director Ryan Summers, and an all-star lineup of studio owners and industry experts for their hottest takes on this year's burning questions, including “can we even define what motion design is anymore?”.  In addition to our regular podcast format, this year we also made this multi-hour odyssey into a video, so you can see the work, tools and events as they're being discussed. So get comfy and prepare your ears for a full recap on all things mograph for 2022.

For this episode of the RevThinking podcast we are excited to 'go back'. We are going to be sharing what we call the "best of" episodes with you. Recasting the top episodes from that past one hundred episodes of the RevThinking Podcast. “All I need is my family, a bottle of wine, and some warm weather, and I'm happy.” – Joey Korenman In this episode of the RevThinking podcast, Joel Pilger speaks with Joey Korenman, founder and CEO at School of Motion. From a successful – yet unfulfilling – role in motion design studio to founding School of Motion, Joey's story illustrates how leading a life with intention will enable you to achieve your goals, but it may not look like what you thought it was going to look like. After all, you may end up going to work everyday in flip flops.

2020 was...well, it was certainly a year. Not just for the MoGraph industry and for School of Motion, but for everyone. We know you don't need a recap of all the challenges and craziness that made this year what it was. Instead, we want to focus on the positive. While 2020 certainly presented a difficult road, we have seen our community emerge stronger and better than ever. On the 2020 End of Year Podcast episode, our founder Joey Korenman is joined by Creative Directors EJ Hassenfratz and Ryan Summers—along with a special guest—to talk about the artists, studios, tools, trends, and events that made MoGraph news in 2020…plus all the exciting plans (and bold predictions) for the coming year. This is a long one—but worth it—so grab a comfy seat and join us.

It was a heck of a year for the MoGraph industry, and for School of Motion. SOM's 2019 Motion Design Industry Survey revealed greater participation, enthusiasm, opportunity and income than ever before; and SOM's business, course curriculum, core team, enrollment and online reach and engagement grew at exceptional rates. Not to mention SOM's rebrand with Chris Do and The Futur, the brand manifesto video with JR Canest and Ordinary Folk, and the completely redesigned website coming soon.

Allen Laseter Talks Productivity, Passion Projects, People Management, Motion Design, Direction, and Developing Your Own Style Nashville-based animator, illustrator and director Allen Laseter didn't 'study' motion design; the famed creative, known for his bold, striking scenes and uniquely stylized characters, transitioned from live action with trial and error and online tutorials. One day, after graduating with a BFA in Film, he was offered an animation project from a friend of a friend — and the rest, as they say, is history. Allen's since completed projects for the likes of Lagunitas, TED, Coke, Disney and School of Motion. How does he do it? Almost exclusively in After Effects. And now, with a new baby at home, how does he juggle his creative work, commercial direction and family life? On Episode 81 of the School of Motion Podcast, our founder and CEO Joey Korenman and his guest Allen Laseter discuss the road to renown; developing your own style; After Effects animation; coordinating paid client and personal passion projects; billing for your services; working freelance versus studio employment; project and people management best practices; and Stanley Kubrick, School House Rock! and The Beatles's Yellow Submarine.

Some of the coolest work in the industry blurs the line between motion design and visual effects. School of Motion's VFX for Motion course teaches you to move in and out of these worlds with ease. On Episode 79 of the SOM Podcast, we go behind the scenes of VFX for Motion, discussing in depth what went into the course's creation with the creator himself, Mark Christiansen. The developer of the After Effects Studio Techniques series of books that helped launch a generation of visual effects artists, Mark has spent his career dedicated to creativity and mentorship — ideal for an instructor, online or off. During his conversation with School of Motion founder, CEO and Podcast host Joey Korenman, Mark covers his work with LucasArts and Industrial Light & Magic, shares tons of tips on compositing in After Effects, and answers a variety of questions SOM tallied from its audience.

Will Johnson, creative innovator, co-founder, director and partner of industry-leading motion design studio Gentleman Scholar speaks with School of Motion founder, CEO and Podcast host Joey Korenman about the importance of passion and work ethic; the naming, creation, development, key differentiators and success of Gentleman Scholar; and much more.

Joey Korenman, Chris Do, and Ryan Summers join us for our first Mega Show panel discussion. We talk about the state of the industry and answer questions from listeners. 2 hours was not even enough. There will definitely be a part two next year.

Liz Blazer was a successful fine artist, but the fine art world wasn't for her. She chose to blaze her own path, telling stories through animation — like Ozzy Osbourne fighting Elton John to the death. Now a famed filmmaker, art director, designer and animator, Liz has worked as development artist for Disney, director for Cartoon Network, special effects designer for MTV, and art director for Sesame Street in Israel. Her award-winning animated documentary Backseat Bingo was shown at 180 film festivals across 15 countries. But that's not all. Liz is the authority on animated storytelling. She wrote the appropriately entitled Animated Storytelling, now in its second edition, and currently teaches visual arts at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where she emphasizes the art of storytelling in pitching and delivering successful animation projects. School of Motion founder, CEO and Podcast host Joey Korenman raves about Animated Storytelling (and its illustration, by Ariel Costa), and makes the most of his opportunity speaking with "Blaze" on Episode 77. During her hour-long appearance, Liz speaks with Joey about her transition from fine art to animation; the importance of movement, breath and soul in art; animation's ability to "charm" and "suspend belief;" the creation of her award-winning animated documentary; how she ended up writing a book by accident; the differences between animation and motion design; the keys to compelling storytelling; and more.

Show Notes, Tools and Resources: https://www.feisworld.com/blog/joey-korenman Joey Korenman is the CEO & Founder, School of Motion, who wakes up every day “to help thousands of aspiring Motion Designers learn their craft and develop the skills necessary to have a career in this magical field of ours.” Previously Joey was a Creative-Director at the awesome Toil in Boston, MA, he also taught at the Ringling College of Art & Design, when he first packed up his bags and moved his family from Boston to Florida. After spending years running his own ad agency, hours each day on his commute and clients who’d surprise him with new deadlines nights and weekends, he decided to pursue a new way of life and left Boston. As a creative director who was working for top agencies in Boston at the time, things look great on paper. “I was at the top of the mountain, but then I realized I climbed the wrong mountain.” - Joey Korenman Instead of waiting for another 10, 20 years, Joey left everything he’d built, an unthinkable decision for most. Working as a college professor taught Joey quite a few things. He had a steady paycheck until he decided to go solo and pursue his journey as a creative entrepreneur. In this episode, he reveals the secret to how he was able to launch his first successful online course without marketing dollars. School of Motion wasn’t built overnight, but it’s still considered a quick success story. Joey committed to developing content consistently for 2 years, including a 30-day daily tutorial creation marathon that drove massive attention to his website.

In his conversation with our podcast host (and founder and CEO) Joey Korenman, the genius GMUNK discusses the tempestuous world of commercial direction, his experimentations with psymunk (psychedelic art), inframunk (infrared photography) and other art forms, his use of hallucinogens, why and when he may move to Europe with his family, the key characteristics necessary for long-term success, and much more. https://www.schoolofmotion.com/podcast/famed-designer-director-bradley-g-munkowitz-gmunk-som-podcast
