A Brief History
That no one asked for
FROM CONCEPTION
TO PRODUCTION
J. Jason Groschopf has been working in design for twenty years. He's moved around a bit, both in terms of the sectors work, as well as geographically.
He started out in the before time cartooning for the Badger Herald. He's designed shirts that wound up in Urban Outfitters for a t-shirt company run by drunks in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He taught himself Cinema 4D while working for a marketing firm in Milwaukie, OR. And he refined his ability to combine 2D design with 3D modeling and thinking in the cold vacuum of Arctic air known as Minneapolis, Minnesota. He’s now finding new ways to elevate his skillset while on his second tour of Portland, Oregon.
Willing not only to ideate and sketch, he’ll also create mood boards… and iterate concepts… lay out graphics. He’ll model up spaces, build the presentation decks, and pitch to the client. After that? He’ll build production-ready files, create install directives, and output web assets. He’ll roll up his sleeves and do whatever the job requires.
Get yourself a designer that can literally replace the clutch on his car by himself or create a beautiful oil painting (not with the aforementioned car’s oil, of course).
Jason’s hobbies include illustrating, hiking, and being a big damn hero as a second responder as part of the Portland’s emergency apparatus. Contrary to what you’ve heard, he does not like talking about himself in the third person.
