067: Ivan Despi, The Acid House

Kendrick Loves to Brand

The Acid House is one of the country's most established motion animation studios, having done excellent work for both local and global brands over its long tenure in the industry. Ivan Despi, who founded the studio with his wife, joins me on this episode to talk about how he discovered his love for animation and the leap he took to start his own studio.

I love hearing stories like this because even for someone who has had a long history already with his studio, you can really hear the passion still going strong from creative entrepreneurs like Ivan. He tells the origin of The Acid House and how they built their name slowly but surely, all while keeping an extremely lean team backstopped by a network of collaborators and freelancers working harmoniously to produce the great works that the studio is known for.

We Filipinos have always had the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit, and stories like this hopefully inspire the next generation to take the leap and create their own path to showcase the best of what our country can create and produce.
