Nick DenBoer Followed by a Q&A session |
In this presentation, Nick denBoer will share his experience in adapting his weird and unconventional artistic process to the commercial world. Nick will give a behind the scenes look into his projects including the most recent music video Pomegranate which he directed and animated for deadmau5 & The Neptunes, along with other commercial projects for KFC, Old Spice and more. Nick is a strong believer in leaving room for the creative process within the timelines of software applications in a world where all the fun stuff is usually done beforehand in pitch decks and storyboards. He will demonstrate his workflow and show how he leaves room for improvisation throughout the entirety of production. He will show how leaving room for experimentation in commercial post production can lead to better work and faster turnarounds than the traditional workflow of planning every detail before execution. Nick also creates a huge amount of experimental personal work, short films and other weirdness. He’ll talk about the importance of leaving time for the fun stuff and how to use personal work to drive the direction of your career.
