A Podcast for Creative People
Who Make the Work Happen

Behind The Pixel is where we bridge the gap between those who buy creative content and those who make it.

We talk shop, share stories, and ask the questions we don’t even know we're dodging.

Creative work is a puzzle and half the pieces are vibes.

We understand freelancing can be wild. One minute you’re designing something amazing, the next you’re negotiating a scope creep spiral over Slack.

You’re talented, but let’s be honest, no one teaches you how to freelance. That’s why we made this show. To help you connect the dots, ask better questions, and feel a little less alone in the chaos.

We’ve been in your shoes.

We've been freelancers, employees andstudio owners.

Co-founder of Open Pixel Studios

We started Behind The Pixel to create the kind of conversations we wish we had earlier: honest, funny, occasionally weird, but always useful
