Meet Michael Clark

We were lucky to catch up with Michael Clark recently and have shared our conversation below.

Alright, so we’re so thrilled to have Michael with us today – welcome and maybe we can jump right into it with a question about one of your qualities that we most admire. How did you develop your work ethic? Where do you think you get it from?

I’ve worked a lot throughout my life. Ever since I was a small kid, I would help my grandpa out in the hay fields in whatever way I could. As I got older my understanding of finances was better and I knew that hard work was the best way to earn cash.

Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?

In college I got my degree in visual media with an emphasis in Photography. My journey to photography went through some different levels though. I started in animation, working my way to video. During my video days I realized that I loved working the camera and finding different angles and lighting. I moved to photography where I could hone these skills specifically. This is where I would learn to do product, still life, and lifestyle photography that I would use in my everyday career now. I have been working as a full time professional photographer for 7 years now. Throughout my career I have had to gain and develop different skills such as marketing, writing, broadcasting, design, and even continue to build on my video experience. I now work with my wife on our business Korvus Kreate to help grow and produce content to get our name and art out there.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

I would say it is focus, an open mind, and critical thinking. The skills and abilities that you will need to do a job will come with experience on the job, but having the open mind and ability to think through problems is going to get you a long way. Learning to take opportunities that you may not want or doing work that seems uninteresting to you can get you something in the long run. Being able to focus on what in front of you, but keeping your mind open to what you can get form these experiences is a great help.

Okay, so before we go we always love to ask if you are looking for folks to partner or collaborate with?

We are always looking to collaborate with other artists, crafters, and creators alike. The community is stronger when you are working together to build each other up and get the right skills for the right jobs out there.
