codes

Emily and Zoë dive into the world of code-breaking and espionage in the Alan Turing biopic, The Imitation Game. As we uncover Turing's life and work at Bletchley Park, we discuss why the Polish are the unsung heroes of this story, what Snow White may have had to do with Turing's death, and how Benedict Cumberbatch can't seem to escape playing Sherlock. 

Ever wonder why the gay community loves labels so much yet they often say they hate them?  While satirizing gay social norms, Mike proposes his hypothesis, talks "gay codes" and gives special guest DJ George Jett a gay labels quiz.  Learn all about twinks, bears, otters and much more.  If there was ever a cheesy but educational episode of The Geek With Muscles Podcast, this is it.  

Journalist Jordy Yager joins Professor Nelson in the Study Center library to share his findings from research concerning Charlottesvillle's black citizens' access to property (and the power that comes with it) from the plantation era to today. 

The Kahuna Kids discuss a fun heist movie done in the tradition of Oceans 11 a whole nine years before that was a thing people said. Is Sneakers a near perfect movie? What anagrams can you get out of Kush and Kai? What did the director of this movie have to achieve to get this made? Wheres the line between Dan Akroyds character and real personality?

##Storytelling for designers

Today’s episode is about storytelling.

This is a conversation around what the role of storytelling looks like for a modern designer in this creative economy.

Because, the most successful, companies/designers, who are able to convert known and unknown customer needs, into a story the customer can get behind, end up becoming the best in the industry.

I tweeted this yesterday “The emotions evoked by the stories you tell is what sells a product. It’s no longer about the features.”

So, the conversation prompts are these:

1. What are some of the companies that are great storytellers?Why?
2. What role does story telling play in what you do?
3. What are some things we can do as designers to help evoke the emotions that make it easier for customers to get behind your brand?
4. How does it work when you are working at a company and storytelling is not part of the culture. What are some things you can do, to help create a culture that understands the importance of great storytelling?
5. If you are in high school, first year in college, or fresh out of college, and you are listening to this, why is this important to you?

Thanks!

Episode 81 - What’s my Vlogging workflow like

Intro

Welcome to another Late Nights!

Topic

Today, I’m going to talk to you all about how I go about thinking through how I am going to produce daily content on the vlog.

Step 1

Understand what your day will look like tomorrow.

It all starts with planning, if you listen back to “Maximise your productivity with these 14 daily habits” you will hear me talk about planning.

I have a Trello board that is broken up into my weekly and daily tasks. By doing, this I can start to get an idea for what my day is going to be like tomorrow.

Step 2

Once you understand what your day will look like, think about what is going to be the most interesting part of the day that I can share.

Step 3

I create and write a mini outline that helps me think through what

• my hook is
• the music i’ll be using
• what my transition will be like
• the main part of the story
• and my outro

Step 4

Once I understand this, I’ll fill the different pieces out throughout the day. I’ll fill them out as they appear in my day. Because I planned, I know what to look for.

Step 5

Put it all together, this is the part I have the most fun with. Re-arrange, cut, etc. It’s where my artistic style meets what I captured. It’s really fun to see what you’ve had in your mind all day, put together in a neat little bow.

Some thoughts

I want to keep it all mobile, so everything I capture is on mobile, and all my editing is on my phone. I can then quickly post it up on Instagram, litter it with some hashtags, and post it up.

Thus far, I’m liking it. There is only one thing I don’t like. That is the compression Instagram does on my video. It looks great in iMovie and then Instagram does it’s thing. I’m sure as mobile video picks up, that Instagram will get better at it.

Episode 80 - Vlogging

Intro

Welcome to another late nights!

Hook

Today’s episode is pretty much solely going to be about what we’ve done the last couple of weeks and my newest creative endeavour I am embarking on.

What have we done?

• Adobe
• InVision
• Some new guests
• Brainstormed some new ideas
• Some negotiations

My newest creative endeavour

• I’ll be vlogging daily on instagram under my account @losmontoya
• So when we started this podcast, one of the things I wanted to get better at, was taking an idea, forming an opinion around it, and then regurgitating back in a way that was understood by anyone listening.
• I want to do something similar with vlogging.
  • I want to be able to create, for myself, on-demand, daily stories.
  • My hope is that I’ll learn how to capture story in one minute, and I hope I get better as time goes on.
  • Also, instagram’s minute platform is a tight constraint for a daily vlog. Did you know that I’ve coined the hashtag #MinuteVlogger? A Los original

Conclusion

Don’t wait for things to be perfect, jump into the pool, start splashing around and see what happens. If you have an idea, own it, and go after it.

Every day we use physical and digital products. I mean, every day we hire physical and digital products. Today we talk about the "job to be done" of the products you hire everyday and how you can start thinking about the "job to be done" of the things you make.

#Developing Self-Confidence

My wife asked me a couple of weeks ago. How can you be so confident all the time?

You want to know my answer? I told her, I got it from my momma.

For your sake, dear listener,let me expand that answer:

I grew up in a home where my dad usually worked 2 jobs to provide for us, or worked at odd hours of the day where I didn’t see him much. And as such, I was around my mom most of the time, at least in my formative years. I gained a major portion of my confidence from her, she would say things like, I know I’m beautiful and of course people love me, can’t you see how awesome I am.

Now this wasn’t said with a prideful tone. She would always have an underlying joker’s tone to it, always playful.

In today’s episode I want to deliver a message around self-confidence and how true confidence can’t be faked, it is a by-product of two more important skills:

unwavering self-awareness and a continuos fervor for learning

#Self-awareness

Q:What is it?
The ability to be assess your own strengths and areas for development.

Q:How do you build self-awareness?
Practice. Create a list of the skills you deem most important for your role, your life, whatever you care about. Then assess yourself on each of those skills. Which are you great at, which are you terrible at, which are you somewhere in the middle?

Q:Then, what do you do?
Get others to assess you. You can’t ask people to go down the list like you did, you have to do it in the moment. Right after you do something that required a skill on your list, ask people how you did.

For example,

1. “What was the best/most effective thing I just did there?”
2. “What’s one thing I could do better next time?”

What you’ll find is a gap from where your self-perceptions are and where other people’s perceptions of you are like. Your goal is to decrease that gap over time.

Q:What’s next?
You’ll have a sense of what you are good at and what you are bad at. Now your role is to be ok with it and grow by-way of learning.

#Coninuous Fervor for learning

You must believe that all skills can be developed through hard work and commitment, that wherever you are now is just a starting point. Having this mindset will not only empower you: it will create a love for learning and a resilience to criticism.

This last part is important, because as you learn, you will make mistakes. You will be criticised there is no way around it. Get comfortable in being corrected and questioned.

If you do this, you will be less afraid of revealing to others that you’re bad at something and more willing to put in the effort to improve at it.

Q:If someone tells you, that you are bad at something how do you react?
Good on you if you instantly become inquisitive and ask “what could I be doing differently?”, “Who’s someone that’s great at this thing?”, “How do you think people get good at this thing?”, etc. Do you become offended by the criticism, or do you thank the person?

#Closing Thoughts

Self-awareness and a fervour for learning are the skills to focus on, not confidence. With a continued effort in developing those two skills, you’ll exhibit all the characteristics of a confident person and you’ll develop real confidence as you patiently become an expert in the areas where you invest your effort.
