The video series exploring the career paths and experiences of industry professionals
Paul Annett Senior Designer
Paul Annett is a Senior Designer at Clear Left. He's spoken at a number of conferences about design and is the creator of the most popular magic trick on Google (Disclaimer: May not be true, but he's near the top at least.). In this weeks episode Paul talks to me about his career to date, how the Duty Calls cartoon is him (According to Relly), and what he's most excited about in the industry today.
