Podcast, Startups 





The Early Team Podcast by Shawhin Mosadeghzad centered on conversations with early employees at startups and how they defined their roles on the job.

When I first heard of the idea for the podcast, I thought of the ups and downs and the pivots that often come with working at and early stage startup — especially as a founding member. There’s a lot of figuring it out on the job, trying and failing, iterating until success, and lots of pivots. 

I chose a hand drawn and hand lettered look, because startups are scrappy and often unpolished — that needed to be reflected in the visuals of this identity.
