Description

Nik is the founder and director of creative studio Twenty Third C.

We talk about Nik's route into motion design from making legos as a kid to graffiti to getting his first break in London and eventually starting his own studio.

There's loads of inspiration here for anyone who's looking to carve out a path in motion design.
