We are living through a Cambrian explosion of new tools, powered by generative AI. It can be tough to wade through the sea of options in front of us, and find platforms that actually help us in our workflow instead of being a distraction. That's why it was so refreshing to discover the tool Capsule a little over a year ago. We use it to create motion graphics and short videos for Design Better, and the experience is a thousand times easier and more rewarding that using arcane tools like After Effects. Today we're chatting with Champ Bennett, CEO and co-founder of Capsule. We talk with him about his entrepreneurial journey, what motion design systems are and how they fit into more general design systems, and how motion design fits into branding. This is a sponsored bonus episode that we're excited to share, as Capsule is a tool that we love. They believe that video storytelling should be easy and scalable, and if your team is hoping to create more video their platform is the place to go. If you're interested in open design roles or in building a motion design system for your enterprise team, you can learn more at capsule.video Bio Champ Bennett is the co-founder and CEO of Capsule—an AI-powered video editing tool that helps enterprise content and marketing teams create more videos while staying on brand. His background is as a software engineer, designer and musician. After running a product agency for 4 years, Champ pursued a decade-long journey as a 3x startup founder focused on creative technology. Fascinated by creative tools since he was a child, Champ believes there's never been a better time to be building creative tools than now. Through Capsule, he is showing the world how AI can be practically applied to augment human ability rather than replace it — solving real world challenges in creative workflows. Capsule raised $7.75M after a product demo went viral on Twitter, recently raised a $12M Series A round, and is working with some of the world's leading B2B brands to help democratize video creation in their organizations.

Mack emphasizes the importance of community and collaboration in their growth, the challenges of managing large projects, and their approach to business and creativity. They also delve into the impact of AI on the creative industry, the significance of maintaining human touch in design, and the potential of events like Dash Bash to foster industry camaraderie and innovation.

PJ Richardson, co-founder of motion design studio Laundry, shares his journey from graffiti artist in San Francisco to running a successful creative company. This episode explores how personal struggles and anxiety have shaped his creative approach and business philosophy. Richardson discusses his experience growing up in Chinatown with a single mother, finding creative escape through graffiti, and eventually transforming that hustler mindset into entrepreneurship. He reveals the insecurities that still plague him despite his success and how he's learned to harness chaos as a creative force rather than fighting against it.This episode was produced in association with Paradiso Key Takeaways:Creative anxiety and perfectionism are common even among highly successful professionalsEmbracing chaos rather than trying to control it can lead to unexpected creative breakthroughsPersonal experiences and trauma often fuel creative drive but require addressing for long-term wellbeingThe parallels between graffiti art and marketing reveal how creative hustle translates to business successCreative leadership requires learning to delegate and set boundaries rather than doing everything yourselfMaking personal experimental work can lead to unexpected commercial opportunitiesThe importance of not waiting for permission to create and try new approachesCreating "sandboxes" for discovery rather than rigid plans can yield the most innovative resultsIndustry change is constant - studios must continuously evolve or risk becoming obsoleteWorking with people you enjoy collaborating with should be a priority metric for taking on projects Mindful Creative: How to understand and deal with the highs and lows of creative life, career and business Paperback and Kindle > https://amzn.to/4biTwFcFree audiobook (with Audible trial) > https://geni.us/free-audiobookSigned books https://novemberuniverse.co.ukLux Coffee Co. https://luxcoffee.co.uk/ (Use: PODCAST for 15% off)November Universe https://novemberuniverse.co.uk (Use: PODCAST for 10% off)

In this episode we chat with Yann Lhomme, co-founder from the SF-based studio Thinkmojo.

Meine erste Frage an David Luepschen war erstmal, warum seine Arbeiten so weird sind. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob er mir wirklich eine Antwort darauf gegeben hat, aber wir sprachen auf jeden Fall über eine Menge Sachen und mir wurde klar, dass er in vielerlei Hinsicht einfach einen sehr eigenen Weg geht. Es ging um die Trennung zwischen seiner Kunst und seiner kommerziellen Arbeit, die sich gerade vor allem im Motion-Design abspielt, und warum ihm seine Kunst zu schade dafür ist, sie nochmal in einem Werbekontext anzubieten.

Being creative ain't easy. There is something about putting yourself into your work that can be hugely rewarding, but also massively exhausting. Doing something without putting your heart and soul into it can come with its own drawbacks, but at the end of the day the results of your work are not tied directly into how you see yourself. For people who consider themselves to be creative and work in creative roles, the sense of burnout can be real. At the same time, creative work can be invigorating and rewarding in the right context, giving the right leadership, and working for the right clients.This is what Mack Garrison was trying to create when he founded Dash Studio, where they make videos that matter.  Dash is a ‘high-end animation and motion design studio that believes in the power of creativity and community.' This is one of the lessons that he learned in the 9 plus years that Dash has been doing business. A big part of their success comes from community: communities of creatives, communities of partners, communities of supporters, and frankly communities of communities. In fact, you could say that creativity either comes from, or at least is enhanced, by community. As part of their effort to create community, they have their annual Dash Bash event, June 11-13, 2025. If you are interested in motion design, or just interested in meeting some great people in Raleigh, NC, check it out. Great speakers, workshops, and social events. Dash Studio - https://www.dashstudio.net/Dash Bash - https://www.dashbash.net/Mack Garrison LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mackgarrison/

Together, they explore the evolution of creativity in motion graphics and design, how motion graphics artists can succeed beyond entertainment, and the role of AI in supercharging creativity and reviving the power of personal touch.

It's not unusual for people to be a little on edge about AI, both where it is now, and where it could be in the near future. As a creative, will you even have a job in five or ten years? If AI can create art, where do we humans fit in? In this episode, Chris is joined by fellow LA Motion Design Director Kevin Lau to talk about the similarities between starting their careers with the beginnings of After Effects and Motion Design in the mid 90's, and how it feels similar to this dawning of a new AI era. Kevin has a long history working with the newest tools in the industry, building businesses, and winning awards, and after almost three decades, has a lot of insight to share about how the future isn't something to be scared of. Kevin and Chris will talk about how taste will become the primary driver of a creative's potential, in a world where AI can do a lot of the legwork, and why it's important to pay attention to the trends of your youth.
