Bradley Rubin began using 3D printing while getting his Bachelor of Architecture degree from the Syracuse University. With a passion for storytelling and design, he has worked in both the digital and physical world of film entertainment. Brad's credits include working on films such as This is 40, The Internship, The Muppets, Real Steel, and The Hunger Games. He has worked on multiple films in the capacities of graphic consultant and as an illustrator/3D modeler. Brad spent three years in Boston working as an architect, and did volunteer work that promoted design and architecture to children and Boston area citizens.

Chris Thompson began his career in 3D printing at Hive76 hackerpsace, where he printed his first ever object: a dovetail joint, modeled in SketchUp and printed on a Cupcake CNC. He furthered his skills by building a RepRap and running 3D printer building workshops for new users.

Prior to this, he was a Technical Supervisor at NextFab Studio in Philadelphia and an expert in the field of digital manufacturing. He is also a mildly successful entrepreneur with meatcards.com. His previous positions gave him experience with laser engravers, fine hand skills, and digital design tools.

Samson Tiew is a co-founder of The make lab, an online digital fabrication platform servicing the Australian market. Coming from an architecture background, he identified a gap in the market to make digital fabrication more accessible to retail customers. Within the field of design and fabrication, he is highly interested in the idea of experimental practices fused with practical experiments.

The make lab is a platform for designers and enthusiasts to fabricate and manufacture customized products. Albeit focusing on laser cutting in the interim, the personnel that form The make lab are very much in tune with other digital fabrication techniques such as CNC routing and 3D printing.
