S2 E07: Fangirling with Chilean Motion Designer Cristo Saez

Episode Summary

In this episode, I chat with Chilean Motion Graphic Designer and Illustrator Cristobal Saez. Cristo was raised in Chile and eventually made his way to New York City to attend FIT where he studied graphic design. He quickly realized that branding and logo work just wasn't for him and started creating illustrated GIFs of pop culture moments on his off time. But it was through his work creating this digital fan art that he was able to land a role at a record label creating content and now works at Universal producing visual content for artists such as Beyonce, Adele, and Lil Nas X. Keep on listening to hear us talk about why he chose to move to the US, his experience creating viral fan art, and his advice for breaking into the music industry today.
