Title: RAP SNACKS. . .Are you ser?
Post by: antbach on July 22, 2005, 08:54:12 am

So I got this job at work today and I open the file and see this "Chopper" character pointing at me and almost lost it. . . Anyway, do people actually think people will actually buy this stuff!? Although it is "The Official snack of Hip Hop." On the bottom left its says Also look for Rock Snacks, wonder who they got on the packaging of that one.

My friend Nathan once said, "America\'s a beautiful thing when it\'s done right." That product is the reason why America\'s attraction factor is currently "fugly".

ant, what exactly do you do?

Good question, sort of difficult to explain, but I\'ll give it a whirl. I am a Graphic Artist, not a Graphic Designer (I have no artistic talent for that).

My company is a "prepress" shop. It is conisdered part of the "print industry", although we do not do any printing here. We make flexo plates for printing companies (National Graphics in North Haven is such a company, I think they have their own prepress department, but they have printing presses there).

What my job consists of is setting up files in Illustrator or Freehand for films to be plated for press.

As a whole we basically only do packaging for food items (vegetables, potato chips, cookies, pork skins, etc). We also do coca-cola and gatorade\'s plastic bottle labels. I\'ve also come across Playboy covers too. I\'ve also done gift boxes for Abercrombie, CLaiborne, Saks 5th Ave, etc.

Some of the companies I do stuff for I have never heard of, maybe some people on here have, others I know. Just to name a few to see if anyone knows of any:
  • Stop & Shop, Giant, Southern Home, Tops, Publix, Shop Rite, River Valley, Hannaford, Food Lion supermarkets
  • Uncle Ray\'s potato chips, Rap Snacks (heh), Mac\'s Pork Skins, Avon comsemtics, and a bunch of others I can\'t think of.
