A handful of the Genesis team went for a hike up the Mournes last Sunday. Now that he’s had time to recover, here’s some parallels our Creative Production Manager Gareth Hammond (full credit for the video) made to managing the studio:   1️⃣ Fail to prepare, prepare to fail. Walking the Mournes without the right preparation can be a recipe for disaster. The same goes with managing a Studio. Ensure you have the right elements pulled together (from brief to assets to people) and the job should be a walk in the park.   2️⃣ Teamwork really does make the dream work. We bit off more than we could chew, got lost and ended up in a precarious situation. But the Team pulled together, helped raise each other’s spirits and helped turn a tough situation into a real achievement that we could be proud of.   3️⃣ Perseverance pays off. Grit and determination got us up the mountain, despite screaming leg muscles and poor weather. Hitting a brick wall can be challenging and frustrating at times, but perseverance pays off and the next thing you know, you’re through the worst and happy.

Meet Andrew Donovan, one of our brilliant Workflow Specialist at Zund America. With 6 years of expertise, he's the go-to guy for all things #ZundCutter. From nationwide customer support to top-notch tech know-how, he's the friendly face behind every installation and troubleshooting session. But there's more! Let's explore Andrew's exciting world beyond work. Q: What’s your favorite movie genre? 🎬 A: I'm a big fan of Eastern Action Films and Kung Fu movies. Their action choreography and cinematography are second to none and are borrowed heavily in Hollywood's action films. John Wick wouldn’t exist without John Woo. His movies in the late 80’s and early 90’s paved the way. Q: Where would you go if you can hop on a plane within an hour? ✈️ A: Probably Japan... or the Polynesian Islands. Q: What show are you binge-watching? 📺 A: Firefly... again! My son recently discovered it, so we've been watching it together. Check it out if you haven't seen it. Q: What is your favorite sport? ⚽ A: I get loudest over Hockey. I became a fan after moving to Denver and going to an Avalanche game. They've been my team ever since. Q: What is your favorite book? 📚 A: Anything by Neil Gaiman. He's such an amazing storyteller. If I had to pick a favorite, it'd be American Gods. #zundcutter #meetzund #employeespotlight

Okay, character animation and hand-drawn techniques? Those were never my strong suit. Makes me extra appreciative of animators who make it look amazing, especially those who bring much-needed representation to the screen. I'm committed to exposing more, exceptional people of colour in the creative and tech industries. Wesley Louis, Director and Co-Founder of, the BAFTA-nominated, The Line Animation Studio serves as an great example in the world of Character animation. I'm so inspired by his studio’s work, and his commitment to creating hand drawn art and animation art featuring Black people on his insta. The studio’s work is DOPE. Check out The  “AMARO AND WALDEN - Joyride" music video.  https://lnkd.in/eNtEEtZK It's a brilliant mashup of 2D animation layered over real-world footage.  The characters are so well done and feel so alive, their personalities and energy jump out of the screen. I honestly forget I'm not watching real people!  The attention to detail in animation of the characters brings them to life.  The music is banging, and the candid style really draws you in.  The animators' skill in bringing this story to life with the existing footage is incredible.  Pure magic where tech and analogue meet. #animation #2Danimation #characteranimation #musicvideos #creativity #tech #BAFTA #representationmatters #Blackcreatives

What kind of team player are you? In the wake of last night's 49er undefeated win #3, players George Kittle and Christian Mcaffrey got me thinking of unselfish play. We know them first for their awesome play making but what often goes overlooked is that the majority of their play is in support of other play makers. This is the type of team character that they have. What kind of team character do YOU have? Do you block, set picks, run decoy routes, and cover so your team mates can shine or are you only engaged when the ball is in your hands? In our creative group I teach my team to fill the gaps to keep the team from dropping the ball. So although designers aren't always expected to, I encourage them to project manage, drive the project, reach out, text out, call out or even walk across campus. If need be I'll even do it to get the job then give them the floor so their own ideas can shine. Are you THAT team player or is that someone else's job. As they say Team work makes the Dream work. Go Team. #teamwork
