Episode 187: Tré Seals

We're wrapping up our series with the incredibly creative Tré Seals.

We’re wrapping up our two-part series with a conversation with the extremely talented Tré Seals. His specialties lie in branding and illustration, but Tré is also a fantastic typographer.

The interview starts off with Tré describing how he got interested in design, and talks about his time at Stevenson University (where he learned from one our former guests, Andrea Pippins). Tré also talks about his company, Vocal Type Co., and we get into a discussion on typography and fonts as he talks about the project he’d most love to do one day. You’re definitely going to want to keep an eye out for Tré Seals!

Episode 186: Tynesha Foreman

Tynesha Foreman is a DC-based animator with a proclivity for the grotesque. (I love that!)

For the next two weeks, I’m looking at two talented young creatives in the DMV area. First up: animator Tynesha Foreman. When she described herself to me as someone “with a proclivity for the grotesque,” I knew I had to look into her work and bring on the show!

Our conversation began by going into some of her current work at The Atlantic, and she talked about how she approaches new projects and where her love for animation began. Tynesha also spoke a bit about diversity in animation, some of her inspirations and influences, and where she wants to be career-wise in the next few years. Tynesha has such a unique and powerful visual style, so I think we’ll definitely see more from her for years to come!

(Note: The audio quality is a little crunchy on this episode, but we cleaned it up as much as possible.)

Episode 184: Alex Fefegha

Alex Fefegha is a creative technologist and graphic designer in London, England.

We’re closing out March by talking with with London-based product designer and creative technologist Alex Fefegha. As the creative director of his own Alex’s work has taken him all over the world, and he’s currently creative director of Comuzi, an agency with clients like the BBC, the University of the Arts London and NHS England.

Our talk is less of an interview and more of a conversation. We touch on a few entrepreneurial topics like starting a studio and finding clients, the state of diversity in design in London and the United Kingdom, and I ask Alex what he thinks prevents more Black designers from becoming recognized leaders in design. It’s a little bit of a departure from the norm, but I’m glad that we were able to candidly discuss these topics. Thanks Alex!

Episode 183: Chikezie Ejiasi

Chikezie Ejiasi is a senior interaction designer at Google currently working on Daydream VR.

I’ve had my eye on Chikezie Ejiasi and his work since we profiled him for 28 Days of the Web back in 2015. Fast forward to now, and Chikezie is working as a senior interaction designer at Google on their new Daydream VR platform.

We had a lot to talk about! He shared information about Daydream and why virtual reality is becoming so popular right now, his “anti-conference” stance, and how not following a traditional design path helped set him up for success today. It’s a great conversation that I’m sure you’re going to enjoy!

(Thanks to one of our patrons, Nate Koechley, for the introduction!)
