Talking About Finding Your Creative Collaborator with Adi Goodrich and Sean Pecknold

This week Adi Goodrich (@adigoodrich) and Sean Pecknold (@seanpecknold) of Sing-Sing (@singsingstudio) discuss finding balance in their own lanes while supporting each other’s creative expertise. When looking for a creative collaborator, Adi talks about the importance of finding a partner with the same work ethic as you. We examine the importance of having dedicated time to yourself; when you can slow down and be intentional with what you create. It’s this work that will last longer than a cycle and will likely bring in more paid work than actual paid work. Sean dig into getting obsessed with the details of your craft, while Adi warns against getting too close to the client’s references; you want to avoid the Pinterest echo chamber. They also chat about being inspired by the past - the stuff that couldn’t have been made digitally - to make their art history grandparents proud of their work. We reminisce about live shows while Sean and Adi dig into the differences between commercial work and concert visuals. Lastly, we chat about doing things differently; trusting that little voice in your head and inspirations from the past because what makes you uncomfortable is where the new things come from.
