Mark Boszko, Video Producer

Full transcript and show notes at theomnishow.omnigroup.com

Mark got hooked on video and special effects at the age of five when he saw a TV show about the effects behind The Empire Strikes Back.

After creating videos for vast government bureaucracies and The History Channel, Mark moved to Seattle to come work at Omni — which, from his point of view, is a video production company that happens to create some companion software to go along with the movies.

Mark also hosts The Optical podcast, which you should listen to. And — most critically — Mark is this show’s intrepid producer.

You can find Mark @bobtiki on Twitter. You may, if you meet him in person, call him Bob. It’s fine.
