Episode 533 - Jonathan Robinson

Revision Path

December is a good time to reflect and take stock of the year, and that’s the basis of my conversation with this week’s guest Jonathan Robinson. Jonathan is a creative powerhouse — a writer, a filmmaker, and a director, just to start — who’s currently on a personal journey of self-discovery. We started off doing a bit of a recap of the past year, and Jonathan shed some light on what creative and experiential producers do and how he came into those titles through his work in the advertising industry. He also talked about working with AI and VR, and spoke about how his time spent at Facebook and Twitter helped shape him into his current calling as a storyteller. For Jonathan, chasing his passions and connecting with other people are what drives him. When you look back at this year, what’s been your driving force? ========== For extended show notes, including a full transcript of this episode, visit https://revisionpath.com. ========== DONATE: For 10 years, Revision Path has been dedicated to showcasing Black designers and creatives from all over the world.
