The Failed Experiment

Send us a text

Chris Ray is a skateboarder and filmmaker residing in Southern California with his wife and kids. Partners with Martin Fobes at Motion Clubhouse (their production company), Chris is responsible for some of the most influential skate videos over the last 15+ years.
In today's episode, Chris shares his journey from working crummy jobs while pursuing his passion for filmmaking in the skate industry, turning down a six figure job offer from DC Shoes (yes, you read that right), to accepting the same job offer a year later, leaving DC Shoes after 10-years to start Motion Clubhouse with Martin, and our deep love for Taco Bell amongst a whole host of other topics.
For all of my filmmaking friends out there, this is truly an insightful look at one of the hardest working individuals in action sports. Chris provides invaluable insights on his journey and how others can apply hard work, kindness, and punctuality to find success as a creative.
