I was in close direct contact with clients and worked most facets of a project manager as well as initial design creation, comp layout, implementing corrections, gathering sign-offs, prepping files for printing and attending press checks. Most pieces were unique and required “outside of the box” thinking but also had to ensure the integrity of the client’s identity standards. Coordinated closely with vendors including printers, photographers and promotional materials suppliers.
