I am Jason Hoppe, a production specialist with graphic design background. I have lived in Seattle for 20 years and worked in a variety of production management and teaching positions. I have a passion for classic cars and you will seldom see me without a car... or several.
I enjoy solving design, production and digital problems of all types. I have always loved all things mechanical. From a very young age, I was fascinated by cars, lawn mowers, Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Legos and anything I could take apart and put back together. I also enjoy renovation projects which allow me to apply my design and color skills to create kitchens, baths and homes that are functional and enjoyable to their owners.
I have worked at several agencies in Seattle over the last 20 years; CF2GS, Hornall Anderson, HL2, Bozell/FCB, McFarland Richards and Graff. Heading up the electronic production department for several of the agencies allow me to hone my skills in production as well as the industry leading software.
Teaching Adobe software and design classes for 19 years has been challenging and immensely rewarding. My love of teaching has been amplified by the great people and students I have met and the things I have learned from all of them. I teach Adobe Creative Suite and design classes in Seattle at The School of Visual Concepts, Luminous Works and Seattle Central College and am the founding Instructor at creativeLIVE, the leading online education company. By teaching others, I am helping to create the next generation of designers and Adobe savvy students that share the passion for design and production.
As an Adobe Certified Expert and Adobe Certified Instructor, along with my background solving complex mechanical issues, I have helped clients such as Costco bring their entire catalog process in house, setting up a complete integrated system for the design and implementation; Cascade Design with a streamlining of their workbook using InDesign best practices and work flow management; Institute for Functional Medicine with a complete interactive PDF system for their Practitioner Certification Process.
