We recently connected with Scott Baldino and have shared our conversation below.

Scott, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. When did you first know you wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally?

I’ve been an artist as long as I can remember. I was born with an eye for art and an ear for music. Most of my artistic pursuits involve entertainment as I have done work in the film, television and music industry

Scott, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I graduated from Kent State University in Ohio with a BA in communications. I started out in video and worked at various news outlets on the east coast including CNN in Atlanta Georgia. With my artistic inclinations, I gravitated towards the marketing and promotions aspect of the news industry and fine-tuned my skills with Adobe software including, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Premier and After Effects. In the early 2000’s with the onset of the Information Age and the World Wide Web, I decided to pursue web design and learned HTML and CSS.

Coupled with a video marketing background and web design skills, I can offer a wide variety of business solutions including websites, app development, corporate branding and digital marketing.

What sets me apart is a natural eye for art blended with a strong technical background. This balanced skillset enables me to design client websites and marketing collateral with both form and function that will help them stand out from the competition.

My latest accomplishments include, designing all the conference collateral for the Charleston Defense Contractors Association’s ‘Eastern Defense Summit’ in 2023. I did all the design work for the stage area and exhibit hall as well as the website and attendee app.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

My vision is to provide the latest in digital marketing to enterprise-level businesses – helping them create them a unique brand personality that has maximum impact on their global identity.

My mission is to combine established design principles with marketing innovation to turn my clients ideas into impactful realities.

Have any books or other resources had a big impact on you?

I listen to several podcasts about web design, graphic design, leadership and entrepreneurship. My favorites are Bedros Keuilian, Kady Sandel of The Profitable Graphic Designer, Josh Hall of Web Design Business and The Ed Mylett show.
