Nate Heck
Executive Producer | Host | Animator

A former art educator, Nate has always been concerned with the yearly decrease in arts funding. In 2013, Nate set out to create online arts content that could be seen by students around the globe, regardless of their educational institution’s financial status. 

With the show now growing beyond the arts, Nate set out to prove creativity and innovation are happening in nearly every profession. Creative people are fascinating, and Nate is out to dig into their stories.

Nate loves other cultures, languages, traditions, and formerly lived in Nancy, France. He now travels the globe with his family, but you can often find him back in France where he cannot get enough of its museums, mountains, and patisseries. When not filming, you can find Nate playing soccer with his son, Phoenix, or flexing his mediocre unicycling skills.

Sam George
Producer | Videographer

 Samantha "Sam" George is a production designer & producer from Indiana. Graduating with a degree from Indiana University, Sam originally wanted to be an archaeologist. Unfortunately for her, that dream was short lived as Sam is highly claustrophobic, which limits exactly what she can do in terms of uncovering lost civilizations. So there went that. Eventually, Sam ventured to the Herron School of Art & Design with the hopes of figuring out what she would do once she got there, but it all circled back to one thing: Sam's love of stories and the personalities who tell them. So she stumbled into filmmaking, and has been there ever since.
