EFII Podcast Episode 3 – Collaboration

Collaboration

For this week’s episode, I am joined by friend and collaborator Jason Ritz, sound designer of Whiskey Sound and Symbolic Pictures. Together we discuss our 16-year history of exploring the art of collaboration, and the ways that we have benefited and grown as creators from these joint efforts. We approach the topic as an analysis of three possible forms of collaboration, and talk about how you can use these methods to Escape From Illustration Island.

As a special treat, I close out the show with a song that Jason and I recorded together last year in a long-distance collaboration process mentioned on the show.  You can also take a look at some of the paintings we’ve worked on together in the image above.  Enjoy!

EFII Podcast Episode 2 – The Process Diary

The Process Diary

In the sequel to Episode 1, I speak with Paul Caggegi, creator and host of The Process Diary, an excellent podcast and blog where he opens the doors and windows to his current project, allowing the audience to eavesdrop and respond to the ongoing commentary.  Together, we discuss the benefits and risks of exposing the inner workings of a project that is still in development, the value of seeking out a dissenting opinion, and a unique approach to creating tutorials.  I also read some listener mail and add more resources to the growing list.

Here are some of the resources Paul mentions on the show:

The Process Diary
Blender
Blender Nation
Gimp
The Making of “Thriller”
