Episode 199: Gintel Gee

Explicit
Gintel Gee is a multidisciplinary designer and creative director in Los Angeles, California.

There are more options for you to enter design than you think, and Gintel Gee embodies that fact. This self-taught designer has honed her skills over the years and produced work for a number of LA’s top agencies.

Now she’s branching out on her own, so we talked about the freelance hustle, the type of work she likes to do, and what designers helped inspire her aesthetic. We also discuss the pros and cons of working for agencies, how cutting her teeth on message boards helped her discover her calling, and the one piece of life advice that’s sustained her over the years. Keep an eye out for Gintel Gee!

Explicit
Laci Jordan is a creative director and multidisciplinary designer in Los Angeles.

There’s few designers out there that can match Laci Jordan’s unique mix of talent, energy, and hustle. This Los Angeles-based creative director and multidisciplinary designer is killing the game with her work, and I’m honored to get a chance to share this conversation with you all.

We started off looking at the design scene in LA, talked about design awards, her time growing up in Alabama, and how a short stint with the FBI fueled her passion for design. I truly feel like Laci is at a point where her career is about to skyrocket, and I’m so excited to talk with her. Enjoy!

Episode 188: Brian Hollingsworth

We're closing out April by revisiting London creative director Brian Hollingsworth.

This week’s episode is a bit of a walk down memory lane. Back in 2014, London-based designer Brian Hollingsworth was Revision Path’s first international interview. Three years later, I’m checking back in on Brian to see what’s new over on his side of the pond.

We start off with a look at the London design scene for Black designers, then we go into the evolution of his current studio, Hollingsworth& and some of his other projects, including a design blog and being part of an art collective! Later on, we explore creative insecurity, and how that plays into Brian’s artistic endeavors and entrepreneurial goals. I hope you enjoy this week’s episode!

Episode 175: Chad Brown

It's our 175th episode, and I'm talking to designer, adventurer, and creative director Chad Brown.

I’m so glad I had the opportunity to speak with Chad Brown. Aside from his own studio, Chado Creative, he also owns the nonprofit organization Soul River Inc. and has his own apparel line! On top of all of this, Chad’s an adventurer at heart.

We start off talking about how he got started in design, what it means to him to be a designer today, and then Chad shared his backstory of being in the military and how those experiences shaped him and helped him to where he is today. I really want you to listen to what Chad says when he talks about inspiration, because it really gets to the heart of what I think all designers struggle to overcome. Thanks to Chad for opening up and sharing his story, and thanks to Douglas Davis for the introduction!
