Wing Press provides marketing and printing services to the healthcare, higher education and auto industry. As a production artist my responsibilities range from page design, image editing, front end web development and processing bulk mail lists.

Metrocorp Publishing publishes Philadelphia and Boston Magazine along with Home and Wedding ancillaries and Pennsylvania Wine & Spirits Quarterly. In my guise as a production artist I enjoyed the change of pace that a monthly publication presented. My basic responsibilities were;Preflight and log client ads for publicationsImage retouching and silhouettingColor correcting filesPlace ads in publication pages

I enjoyed the energetic pace and diverse range of projects that were printed at TGI. Being able to produce a capacious range of products in a short amount of time garnered them prestige with clients in Philadelphia and surrounding areas. Work included various printing projects for Merrill Lynch, Bristol Myers Squibb, Vanguard, Merck and PHH Mortgage. This experience was invaluable in the aspect of learning the intricacies of the various graphics programs used, along with the requirements for printing and finishing clients projects. My core responsibilities preparing client files for printing on offset presses were;4color & Spot color separationsCreating die linesTroubleshooting client filesColor CorrectionImage retouchingDesign/Page LayoutReformatting client filesRunning color proofsCreating mock upsAdvising clients on file setup
