Starting ArtistsWhat Does Your Brand Sound Like?Tony gets philosophical on your brand with the challenging question of what it might sound like. Sure, we put a lot of thought into the visual elements of a brand. Brand messaging, from mission to key talking points, are hugely important and far more likely to have been given serious thought. But in an increasingly content-focused digital world, the idea of your brand's signature sound is something you may want to take into account.With easily-recognizable examples of audio shorthand and some personal anecdotes from his decades as a promo producer, Tony makes a case for sound branding on...2025-04-2809 min

Starting ArtistsJames F. Wright, Comic & Game WriterCalling James F.

As you'll hear, James fought "work guilt" and struggled at times to find meaning in what he was creating.

Starting ArtistsLouisa Onomé, Writer & Narrative DesignerNigerian-Canadian writer of books and video game narratives Louisa Onomé had a few false starts along her career journey. Nothing nightmarish, some of them quite helpful to her now. But she had it in her mind that she need a "real job," because she didn't know if she'd realistically ever become an author.With two books (Like Home, Twice as Perfect) out on shelves now and more in the works, it's safe to say she's living her dream!

Starting ArtistsSo, What's Your Plan...?Thinking back to my conversation with Sonya Ballantyne last episode, I'm struck by her hard-earned sense of self and ability to bring all of who she is to storytelling.Sonya is doing what she wanted to do. She's seems unstoppable, and I can't wait to see what she does next! I'm also kind of scratching my head over how and when I lost touch with the cocksure, unflappable, ready-for-anything creative I felt I was earlier in my career. I'm still good at what I do. It still comes naturally. But why did I start doubting myself?I dig into...2025-04-2815 min

Starting ArtistsFind a Brige & Get Over ItI always want to be honest and vulnerable on this podcast, because that's where the real stuff is. The point of Starting Artists is helping other people who feel stuck, or need to make a next move, and just can’t quite make themselves do it. If I actually intend to be helpful, I have to let you know what I went through, what I worked through, and how far I've come since.That said, I think this is as close to a punctuation mark on the topic of me quitting my longtime job as I can give. I'll re...2025-04-2814 min
