Long-form conversations with the people who make the creative industries run - directors, illustrators, composers, animators - about how they actually built their careers: the breaks, the dead ends, and the difficult middle bit nobody talks about; and the music that means the most to each guest, and why. Hosted by Greg Owens. New episodes fortnightly.

    Yannis Konstantinidis: Visible Effort Is The Future

    Yannis Konstantinidis just flew back from New York with a Grand Clio, but he isn't here for the victory lap. Twenty years into running an animation studio, he thinks roughly nine-tenths of the industry he grew up in is quietly disappearing, and that the part worth saving is the part you can see someone bled to make. We get into costly signalling, cathedrals, why AI output feels like an insult before it feels like a threat, and the strange proposal that the behind-the-scenes might be the real product now. There is also a long detour into Philip Glass, musical theatre, chicken pie, and a Ryan Adams cover that will sneak up on you. It is one of the more openly philosophical conversations on the show so far, and worth your full attention. Yannis Konstantinidis is the founder and creative director of Nomint, an animation and creative studio whose recent BBC Winter Olympics trailer just won the Grand Clio, and he thinks the next era of the industry belongs to visible effort.

    Lucrecia: You Have To Be Cringe Until You’re Not

    This week's guest is a director who paid for her own shoots on weekends while account-managing in advertising, got threatened with the sack the morning after directing one of her now-best-known music videos, and learned the hard way that one cruel comment from a boss can almost stop a creative life before it starts. We get into why the most specific story is the one that travels, why she's stopped polishing and started chasing the energy of a scene, and what it actually takes to build a directing career when there is no blueprint. Stick around for one of the most moving answers about a film cue you'll hear all year. Lucrecia is an Argentine-British director who's moved from London to a mountain in Mallorca and is taking her music-video and commercial work into her first narrative shorts.

    Murugiah: The Most Personal Is the Most Creative

    Murugiah is the illustrator of the moment. He has a debut solo exhibition at the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration and a client list that runs from Apple to Elton John. But the thing he's proudest of isn't a brand commission. It's a painting of a broken figure being told it's going to be okay — the most personal thing he's made, and the image he's chosen to lead the whole show with. This one's about what it actually takes to make creative work with a unique voice, why "the most personal is the most creative," and why generative AI can, in his words, get in the bin.  Murugiah: Ever Feel Like opens at the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration on 5 June 2026. https://qbcentre.org.uk/exhibitions/murugiah-ever-feel-like Where to find Murugiah: https://www.instagram.com/_murugiah/ https://murugiah.com
