We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Howard Ross. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Howard below.

Howard, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Do you take vacations? Why or why not?

Rarely, but the older I get the more I realize the importance of vacation. Especially for a creative. It’s important to get away every now and then. Ive found that after a good vacation I always come back to my work with a new perspective.

Howard, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Well I’m a Creative Director in the music industry. I got in the industry starting off as a cameraman for Travis Porter. Working with them was my introduction to the music industry. I was actually traveling with them most of my senior year of graduate school at SCAD.

I provide pretty much all creative services: Video Production, Photography, Graphic Design, Art, Visual Effects, Motion Graphics, Web Design and Animation. I think so what sets me apart from others is my ability to provide all creative services at a high quality across the board.

New clients are normally amazed by the services I provide and the work I’ve done. I am really a “One Stop Creative Shop”! I work with major artist as well as independent artist and labels and my work speaks for itself.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

Seeing how the world responds to my work has to be the most rewarding aspect of being a creative.

How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?

I think consistency helped me build my reputation. After creating high quality work for different artist I feel like others were open to giving me a shot based on what i’ve done with other artist in the industry.
