| Video Discription | One of the first projects James worked on after finishing his Design Studies at CCS was the Ford GT90. This car was the CyberTruck of it's day in terms of how polarising it was. People either loved or hated it. More than 25 years later, it has aged incredibly well and become a legendary icon of the 90's. James talked in depth about how this project came to be and all the adversity he faced when he first started sketching ideas for it. We also covered another baby of his, the Ford Mustang, which until the mid 2000's had lost it's appeal and more importantly, it's identity. There was an overwhelming amount of requests for this episode. I hope you enjoy it! ABOUT JAMES: Hailing from the home of Autodesk and the mighty Neil Young, James Hope indulged me for an hour about old school renderings, full-scale tape drawings, China, as well as business ownership. He's a Design Director that has primarily worked on Car Exteriors. He's been responsible for countless icons such as the insanely cool FordGT90. In the early 2000's he was in charge of a team developing interior concepts with touch surfaces and was trail-blazing UX/UI design 15 years before it became a buzzword in hipster start-up culture. Most recently, him and his team transformed the Chinese brand, Chery, by giving them a visual identity that the company can now call its own. There are simply too many accolades to mention! They say that a true master is someone not with the most students, but the one who creates the most masters. James is certainly en route to this status, having mentored brilliant designers like Alan Derosier, who I interviewed in episode 2. He is now also passing the torch on to the next generation. James is known for being someone who champions teamwork. People that have worked for him have personally told me about how he goes out of his way to empower each team member and publicly recognise their work. He is a true gentleman and an example of a great leader. This discussion is for absolutely anyone interested in Car Design. If you're an experienced director or you're still in school, there is something for you. Enjoy! ============================================================================== THIS IS FREE. WILL CONTINUE TO BE FREE. PLEASE SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL BY SUBSCRIBING ============================================================================== ABOUT ME: I am a South African Designer, Digital Modeller and the host of Crown Unfiltered. I will be talking to a cross section of people that work in the Car Design Industry. These will include designers, digital and clay modellers, vis artists and colour & material designers. The focus of our conversations will be centered around personal processes and experiences within the business. My aim is to demystify some of the preconceptions about this industry and give people an unadulterated glimpse into the business. I also wish to give the younger generation the opportunity to see that the people that these professionals come in different shapes and sizes and some of them will be unknown. The intention is to see that you should always be yourself and not let your job define or change who you are. Please get in contact if there is something specific you would like me to cover. I would also be really grateful if you could subscribe and share the podcast with anyone that has an affinity for cars, design or both. Thank you!
