Description

Joey sits down with Golden Wolf co-founder Ingi Erlingsson to explore how AI is reshaping animation, motion design, and the business of running a creative studio. Ingi shares his journey from building Golden Wolf to launching SYSTMS, an applied AI studio that combines artistic craft with custom tools and workflows.
