Styleframe Saturdays

Most motion designers add sound design at the very end of a project. But Joe Basile, aka The Chicken, says it should start at the very beginning. And once you hear why, the sequencing is hard to unsee. In this episode of the Styleframe Saturdays podcast, we sit down with award-winning sound designer and composer Joe Basile to explore what happens when audio and motion design collide from the very beginning of a project. Joe breaks down and reveals the sonic philosophy behind his Favorite Mix, including a technique borrowed directly from The Shawshank Redemption to transition music from non-diegetic to diegetic sound. From finding rhythm hidden inside an animation before a single note is played, to knowing exactly when to bring a sound designer into the room, this conversation will shift how you hear your own work.

What’s the most underrated tool in the motion design workflow? The Creative Brief. In today’s episode, Justin and Audrey Havey of Sword and Shield sit down with us to break down the creative process behind their launch ident: a hand-drawn, frame-by-frame battle sequence built on intention, world-building, and one very special Easter egg of a Favorite Frame™. We go deep on utilizing the creative brief as the north star of any project, what it really means to build an artist-first studio, and why the best work happens when you let go of control and trust the people you've hired. If you’re someone who’s obsessed with both the process and the craft of motion design — this one's for you!
