In this episode of Monday Meeting, host EJ Brieva leads a discussion about the most valuable career advice community members have received throughout their motion design journeys.
This episode covers:
- Networking fundamentals: Why relationship-building matters more than traditional marketing and business deals often happen in social settings
- Managing creative anxiety: Dealing with perfectionism and finding activities that help you disconnect from work stress
- Career movement: Balancing staying loyal to build relationships versus moving around for diverse experience
- Project completion: Learning that "shots are never finished, only abandoned" and creating reels for clients, not other designers
- Communication: The importance of over-communication and setting clear boundaries to avoid misunderstandings
- Collaboration mindset: Shifting from "the artist" to being a collaborator with clients
