Micah Schmiedeskamp’s Experience
-
Senior Graphic Designer
Ervin & Smith Advertising
(Privately Held; Marketing and Advertising industry)
February 2008 — February 2009 (1 year 1 month)
-
Production / Art Department
Ink Tank Merch
(Printing industry)
October 2006 — February 2008 (1 year 5 months)
Primary hire in start-up screen printing shop / tour merchandising service provider. The shop was created by Saddle Creek Records in an effort to expand their ever-growing empire. I act as one half of Ink Tank's daily operations. My business card says "Art Department / Production" but the reality is that I handle each job from art files in my inbox to printed shirts sent off in a UPS truck.
-
Art Director
Sacco
(Marketing and Advertising industry)
March 2006 — October 2006 (8 months)
At Sacco, I adjusted to a smaller organization and the more hands-on role of Art Director. Though my time there was short, I gained valuable experience and inspiration from a few exciting colleagues. I worked heavily in concepting, web assistance, general design and production work.
-
Graphic Designer / Intern
Bailey Lauerman
(Marketing and Advertising industry)
June 2004 — March 2006 (1 year 10 months)
I snuck on staff at Bailey Lauerman immediately after graduation as an Intern that slowly morphed in to a Designer. BLA is an incredible organization that truly formed my view of what an Ad Agency should and could be. I worked for a wide variety clients ranging from gigantic insurance agencies and jewelry retail to professional lawn mowing and over-the-road trucking. I worked heavily in production work, prepress, graphic design and concepting.
