As a creator who is just starting to get into brand deals/sponsorships, this was so insanely valuable 🤌🏻
matthew is such an inspiration. His creativity is something else.
Dope convo and awesome build. Cant wait to see the next one. Btw where is that denim shirt/jacket from?
@midconvo
Matthew is a great inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this in-depth conversation. I'm always learning something new from such discussions.
Two goats! Love this ❤
in my opinion I think Mathew is all around great content creator, skillful!
“You’re like the main character on your on life “brooo😂..thats deep …of course he is the main character in his own life ..bye Andy is the coolest
Super curious about why you have the mixed headphones 😮
Oakland ✌🏽
Convo's like this is what I will eat up! Thank you so much Paul and Ed for your passion of sharing with other creatives who are out here wanting it and willing to lean in! Huge encouragement!!
OAKLAND
Oakland! From Hawaii 🤙🏽
Planning to start my agency, Matthew is really motivating.
Oh I’m here for this
Brilliant episode. Thank you so much for sharing all the insights of being a creative
So inspiring! Thank you for the insightful chat. Big fan of Matthew's work!
i love the podcast, you gave out really interesting questions))
i've learned a lot from this interview. Thank you Matthew and midconvo
Awesome episode! Now I really want a mechanical keyboard hahaha
Had so much fun hopping on the mic with Matthew. Thank you to everyone who has listened so far!
OAKLAND YEEEEEE 🤘🏽 Thank you for sharing Andy. Much love 💯
Lovely conversation thank you for making this
🙏🏽
Wow I loved this video❤
Thanks
Does the keyboard sound correspond to a certain musical note?
The sound is shaped by the materials, density, and form, but does not correspond to any musical note.
Dang dude chase that story!!! @50:00 --> I feel like you backed out of a very interesting path to follow conversationally. All love, and an excellent episode -- I just wanted to express some thought there. Matthew was WAY more of a talker than I expected, and I'm sure it was tough to know what direction to take everything because he was ready to run whichever way you pointed him.
No idea how I accidentally formatted that with the strikethrough what the heck
What else were you curious about in that story?
@@MatthewEncina Your story was a powerful introspective look exploring a tough human question: "What do we actually want out of our work?" I wanted to hear more about your path to deciding your future was creating a design studio, rather than chasing Authorship and other opportunities. You have managed to narrow down and focus your brand exceptionally -- which seems to have come from some of those difficult decisions. How did you go about clarifying your path, and do you have any advice for someone trying to clarify their personal Brand?
Clear Goal and a Plan to execute is way better than Motivation
Absolutely loved this.
The top top top Designers in the world ....amazing interview. Thank you!
Hey, I’m a big fan of your content. Matthew and I learned a lot about you. You inspired me, thank you.

Oh wow, two of my favorite people on Earth in one frame.
