    Smartphones Are Passé and Other Revolutions with Justin Cone

    Is AI a threat to motion design? Wait, what is motion design? Is it becoming increasingly ubiquitous in our world? Is its own lexicon? What parts do education and community have to play?

    Attempting to answer these questions, our guest today is Justin Cone, the foundational motion design enthusiast, collector of sparkly pixels, and unabashed technology addict.

    Oh, and if you're listening to this in 2033, let us know if you're still using mobile phones, ok?

Can you animate our parable… for free?

I find it pretty ironic that after a relevant and powerful story of sticking up for yourself as a creative and believing in your own value that they “offered” their audience a chance to create an animated version that they would “showcase”, aka: work for free. C’mon, my dudes.
