Meet Perception—a motion design studio trusted by Hollywood and some of the world’s biggest brands to bring sci-fi dreams to life.
Ever wonder who’s behind the mind-blowing tech visuals in Black Panther or the holographic wizardry in Iron Man? In this episode of the School of Motion Podcast, Joey sits down with Perception founders Danny Gonzalez and Jeremy Lasky as they spill the ‘secret sauce’ that powers their studio’s success.
A Glimpse into Perception’s Playbook
Danny, Jeremy, and the team don’t just create graphics; they craft entire worlds. When they’re not busy building Wakandan tech for Marvel, they’re teaming up with brands like Audi to reimagine the future of automotive design. For them, design goes beyond looks—it’s about pulling people into an experience that feels like it’s been lifted straight from the future.
And it’s not just about eye-catching visuals (though they’ve mastered those); it’s about creating interfaces that are both functional and feel like they belong in a sci-fi epic. They tackle every project with a “What if?” mentality that keeps their work fresh and a bit magical.
Why You’ll Want to Tune In
If you’re in the design world and craving a hit of creative inspiration, this episode is packed with insights on blending art, tech, and a touch of the unreal. Danny and Jeremy share tips on everything from building a rock-solid design foundation to staying curious and adaptable in an ever-evolving industry.
This conversation is a goldmine for anyone obsessed with design, tech, or the sheer thrill of imagining what’s next. Dive in, and discover how Perception is shaping the worlds of film, media, and beyond—one futuristic interface at a time.
