EP 516: Creative Careers with Craig Francis

August 5, 2021 by Cody Rich

Those who are interested in being a creative, Craig Francis @craigfrancisphoto has been doing some really cool AMA style videos on Instagram and they are great content. Craig provides a ton of value and though I don’t consider myself a creative their is a ton of valuable information. In this podcast Craig and I dive into career advice both for outdoor industry as well as any industry really. I really appreciate Craigs backstory of being at a bit of a dead end, feeling like his life was not where it should be and then making a deliberate change.

We dive into the creative side, aka photo/video of the hunting industry and some deep topics like working at an agency vs a brand.  We also talk about books and influences that have shaped his career.

This podcast is brought to you by On X Maps. On X has some really big updates and some cool features this year. One really big feature is the new 3D mapping on desktop. As I spend more time e-scouting than actually scouting these days thanks to that dad life, the new 3d mapping has been awesome. I find myself using google earth less and less and its just easy to e-scout all within On X. Another tip as we approach season, Make sure your account is up to date before season arrives and be sure to also download maps. this time of year I go through and re download any maps I will need for upcoming hunts so there is just one less thing to worry about.

Quick interruption here to tell you about something your inner fat kid is going to love. Backcountry Fuel has launched a new box option. I don’t know why we didn’t do this earlier but now, if you aren’t into backpacking meals you can just get a monthly box loaded with snacks, no meals just snacks. For those who had a hard time justifying the box because they didn’t use the meals now you have zero excuses. Sign up for the new big foot snack box and get high quality outdoor snacks delivered right to your door. Whether you are hoarding boxes of for hunting season or making it rain empty snack rappers in the back seat of your ford ranger I won’t judge.
