"Slacking On The Job" Interview Series Kickoff with RUFFMERCY
In our line of work we interact with a lot of pretty damn cool people. Designers, animators, musicians, fortune tellers, Lindsay Lohan, the list goes on and on... Which is what initially sparked the idea of "Slacking On The Job" – an interview series where we pick the brains of some of the folks that have inspired us.
It's important to celebrate the success of others. Their story may even motivate you too!
Kicking off the series, we'll interview our old friend, the one and only Russ Murphy a.k.a. RUFFMERCY.
Russ pioneered the bold style of loose, hand drawn animations overtop of live action footage which has since become wildly popular in music videos. His destructive/constructive approach to filmmaking is striking and instantly recognizable. You've likely seen his work before. If not, it'll probably blow you away!
We take a deep dive into Russ' mind and talk about his early days, his success pursuing a career as an artist, and his thoughts on whether aliens exist. For the full interview, please visit our website here!
