I Have a Question David Kamp

In which Chris Robinson asks animators profound and inane questions that have little to do with animation. Today's guest is animation music and sound designer, David Kamp.

'Ugly' by Nikita Diakur

You’d be hard pressed to find a recent indie animation short or commissioned work that doesn’t feature David Kamp’s name in the credits. From Nikita Diakur’s Ugly, Nicholas Menard’s Wednesday with Goddard, David OReilly’s Please Say Something to commissioned projects for Ted-Ed, The New York Times and other organizations I’ve no desire to plug without full compensation, Kamp’s soundscapes are distinct. The busy Mr. Kamp agreed to meet me by a dumpster near David Hasselhoff's Stuttgart apartment following a much anticipated private Blue Oyster Cult reunion show.
