Hello, my name is Emilio Di Donna. I’m a graphic designer living in Amherst, Mass. I am currently enrolled at Umass Amherst for a bachelor’s degree in Art & Design, and I’ve spent the past couple of years studying design at Greenfield Community College. I’ve worked with many small businesses before and love working with a team to develop and grow organizations.
I’ve spent the 2 previous years employed with SchoolsPLP designing textbook lesson
headers and refining my design and creative skills, which my boss from the company would be happy to vouch for. This involved working with a team of over 20 people and communicating all the time, developing up to 100 images in a given day. I’ve designed for numerous up and coming businesses, companies such as Amazuu, an Olive Oil company, designing product labels and advertisements to bring popularity and clients to the business. I started doing marketing & design at a young age. I designed my first product mockups in photoshop at 12 years old. I have over 10 years of experience with the Adobe suite, I have an extensive knowledge of Premiere, After Effects, and Photoshop. Since then I’ve worked with every kind of athlete, from middle school athletes to NFL Hall of Fame players such as Kam Chancellor, and recent super bowl winner Leonard Williams. I have years of experience with similar programs
such as Illustrator, Bridge, and the rest of the Adobe Suite.
I have done tons of video editing throughout the years, I’m currently doing a video
editing internship for Pledge4Peace, and can edit very efficiently & effectively in After Effects, Premiere, Sony Vegas & More. I’ve also linked my website to show experience of publications and web design. I have been learning Blender for 3D Compositing and developing CGI Scenes. While my specialty is Branding and Commercial design, I can make any type of digital art come to life, please take a minute to look through my portfolios. I would love to help develop this
organization and work with the team. I love this kind of work.

Amazuu was a startup company selling Olive Oil. I was hired to design branding, logos, and marketing to promote and shelf the Olive oil, I created approved labels which had to correspond to FDA regulations and demonstrate the legitimacy of the product. Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator were used for this project.
Active Beast was a training program where I made poster designs for using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. During which time I would be tasked with making 1-2 posters per week to use as social media advertisements, these would involve manipulating images of the athletes the program would train, and edit them into advertisements.
I designed lesson header images and demonstrative images for K-12 Textbook lessons, it was between 25-40 hours of work per week, I would edit between 30-100 images in a given day. I was given a getty-image subscription and tasked with using Adobe photoshop, and Illustrator to merge images to create compositions relevant to the lesson, as well as Premiere to edit video clips.
