    04 - "What Makes a Good UX Designer?" Ft. McLean Donnelly

    Growing into yourself and your career role in an ever-changing fish pond can instill a lot of pressure. However, with acceptance, willingness, and moral passion, you can find much more dexterity to run your own race.  In this episode, we talked with our new SCAD UX Professor McLean Donnelly, and learned a few things about the hard and soft skills behind what makes a “good UX Designer,” and how we incorporate them throughout our career journey.  This episode is a wonderful introduction to gain some tactical insight into the tech world, or even just a fun listen to learn more about our new UX professor and his views and values.  —— Sound Designer: @meghann.rrose Visual & Social Media Designers: @ghalibicious @seth_stormberger

    03 "inFLUX Live" ft. Vincent Lee, Erika Williams, Varalika Mishra, Jacky Lo, Laura Lopez Andreu

    The good, the bad, and the ugly of interning--all answered by our five wonderful UX internship panelists: Vincent Lee, Erika Williams, Varalika Mishra, Jacky Lo, and Laura Lopez Andreu. This session was a special one because YOU the audience were able to participate and ask all your dire internship questions! So, a big thanks to all our lovely inFLUX fans.  All of our panelists are SCAD students, between Juniors or Seniors that have studied UX. For some, this is their first internship, for others, this process is nothing new. In this episode we cover the many hats a UX designer wears between internships; the diversity of job and coworker atmospheres and how to manage them; reaching out for interning mentorship, and the research that goes into learning about the position long before the interview.  --- Sound Designer: @meghann.rrose on Instagram Visual Designer & Socials: @ghalibicious, @seth_stormberger on Instagram

    S2 EP 12 - Khoi Vinh

    On Nico's and Varun's last episode before graduation, we are happy to say that we have a great guest to celebrate the end of an era. The guest is none other than Khoi Vinh, Design Director at Adobe. Khoi details his journey as a designer starting from Otis College of Art and Design to his time at The New York Times to his current position at Adobe. Varun and Nico also pick his brain on the difference between artists and designers as well as between generalists and specialists. Furthermore, Varun was excited to have Khoi on the podcast to talk about his love for movies and his blog, Subtraction. As the last episode of the quarter and 2021-2022 academic school year, this episode is unmissable and a farewell letter to everyone who has listened for so long. That said, I'm sure Nico and Varun will be back sometime or another.
