E117 - Mark Eshleman AKA ReelBear Media

What You Don't Hear

In this episode, I sit down with the talented (and hilarious) Mark Eshleman, AKA ReelBear Media.

Mark has been instrumental in shaping the visual identity of a lot of great artists, most notably through his long-standing collaboration with Twenty One Pilots. We dive deep into his journey, starting from his early days in video production, and while we cover the story of how he first connected with TOP and how their creative partnership evolved over the years, the biggest topic of discussion that threads throughout this one, is that of identity and self-discovery.

We also discuss the power of YouTube and social media in today’s music industry, and how these platforms have changed the way content is distributed and consumed, the importance of staying authentic in creation, being persistent, and continuously learning ever-changing industries. All the while, we ramble, laugh and giggle like two school children who stayed up too late. It’s a blast!

Whether you’re a fan of Mark’s work, a creative looking for inspiration, or just curious about the behind-the-scenes of video production and the creative process, this episode is packed with stuff you won’t want to miss. Most of all, the reminder to slow down, and zoom out on our life once in a while!
