Building the Ideal Creative Team - what makes a ROBOT? ROBOT has developed a formula to create the perfect design team. The standards are high, the competition is tough, and only a select few can call themselves “Robots”. How do we know when a person matches that description?

Check out the criteria that we have set for ROBOT creative team members!

Andrew Watson - a ROBOT designer profile Andrew Watson has been with ROBOT as our designing photographer for about a year now. Outside of ROBOT he is a successful commercial photographer working with local and national businesses.

Andrew is also a fine art photographer, and some of his work is currently on display at the Robot Art Gallery. The exhibit "Memory Studies - Photo Works" has attracted the attention of the San Antonio Current's art writer, Catherine Walworth. Click here to read the review!
