SPI 135: How an Animator Built an Online Business by Being Transparent

This week’s episode is my favorite kind of episode: the kind where I share another success story that came straight from you, the listener. My guest this week is Morr Meroz, an animator who runs BloopAnimation.com.

As an animator straight out of art school, Morr wasn’t used to thinking about his creative career in business terms. He created film after film, attracting very little traffic on his YouTube channel, until the day he tried something different: he posted a video called “How to Make an Animated Movie”. The overwhelming response stunned him. He had attracted an audience simply by being transparent about his process.

If you work in a creative field, or if you’re curious how to draw your audience into your work in a fresh way, Morr’s story is a must-listen!

Thanks for Listening!
