Richard has spent the last quarter century animating games as massive as stars and as minuscule as mice. He helped to redefine the animation workflow, and pushed character depth in VR. Yet, after all this, I've decided to climb out of my animation box. And wow, the view from here is inspiring.

This is a motivational talk about our journey as creatives. It explores why we do what we do, how easy it is to lose sight of this purpose over time, and how to age gracefully in an industry that's ever changing. As an animator who's now a music composer, designer, sculptor, founder, etc... He shares his story in a way that relates to each of our personal journeys.

Takeaway

He hopes to inspire attendees to better envision their own creative growth within and beyond their current trade. Find more comfort aging gracefully in an industry that values their experience and skills.

Intended Audience

Anyone who has a passion for game development that intends to make it a lifelong career. As an animator myself, this talk will be animation and creativity focused.
