Скачать или смотреть You Have A Cool Job: Toy Designer

You Have a Cool Job is a podcast hosted by Taylor Sienkiewicz from Peterson’s. The show highlights professionals who have a unique, interesting, uncommon, or otherwise cool job.

Our goal is to motivate you and show how interesting, fulfilling, and anything-but-average your career can be, and we’ll do this by talking with people who took a path less traveled. We ask these fascinating individuals how they got to where they are in their career based on their education, experience, and influences; why they love their job; and lots more.

On this episode of You Have a Cool Job, meet Rod Hoffmann, a toy designer and owner of Big Eye Studio. Rod gives us a glimpse into the toy making industry, and what designing toys for big companies like Disney and Marvel is like. He shares how the business is changing and moving towards selling directly to consumers, rather than to distributors. Rod tells us where he sees the industry in coming years and where he is taking his business. He also talks about what keeps him inspired to keep creating, and how young designers can get into the industry.
