Start Before You’re Ready | Matthew Encina | TEDxCSULB

How do you spend less time debating, have more time for creating, and grow exponentially in your career? Creative Director, Matthew Encina, shares his story of how a challenge he felt he wasn’t ready for, had turned into one of the most successful projects of his career: the groundbreaking interactive music video “Ink” for Coldplay.
Matthew Encina is an award-winning creative director and content creator for brands, entertainment, and games. For the past 10 years he has been working on top-tier campaigns at LA’s premier design studios and agencies. Coming from a thorough background in design and animation, he currently leads teams of artists as a creative director at Blind. Matthew’s work has been featured in Fast Company, Inc., Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, MTV, and in film and design festivals around the world. Some of his career highlights include 3 time Webby Award winning interactive music video “Ink” for Coldplay, and the CLIO award winning “Jump Ahead” film for Xbox.

[@jeffronium]

volume is horrible. I can barely hear what this guy is saying.

[@BRIANSINGAPORE]

Option 1: You can turn on the Subtitles.
Option 2: Find a way to increase the volume - I am using a headset so the volume is fine.
This presentation is worth your time.

[@jeffronium]

+Brian Lim thanks bud
