Failure as a Creative Catalyst
It is often said that change is good but the reality is change is scary especially when the change is taking a brand new job or working on a new creative project in an area that you’ve never worked in before. It can be even harder when everything doesn’t go as planned and you encounter challenges, set backs or even failure on your new project.
In this session established designer Erik Natzke will talk about his experience leaving his own agency to come to Adobe and building his first iOS app, Brush, and the challenges he encountered along the way. Erik’s goal for Brush was to let designers extend their creativity and engage them to play more but the app development process wasn’t always fun or smooth. When he ran into set backs, solutions didn’t always appear right away. Ultimately the journey of getting through all the set backs led Erik to discovering new solutions and launching a truly delightful app.
