Workbook Radio

In this extended episode, we wrap up our 2022 standing out in a saturated market panel. Workbook’s Heidi Goverman ends on the subjects of social media and portfolio reviews with Senior Art Dir Jason Gan, CD Jana Jarosz, and EP Dir. of Production Michael Kaminski.

About the Panelists:

Jason Gan is a 2021 Adweek Creative 100. He started his career as an intern while still in school at space150, Mistress, WFT Creative and The Fantastical. After graduating he quickly moved into an Art Director role at Arnold Worldwide working with companies Progressive, Carnival, Avocados From Mexico, Santander Bank, National Association of Realtors.

Jason then moved to Goodby Silverstein & Partners working on Adobe, BMW, Doritos, Pepsi and HP before landing in his current role as Senior Art Director with Droga5.

Jana Jarosz is a hybrid creative thinker, maker, designer.

Whether working to shift the boundaries of inclusivity, diversity, and cultural standards to build a brand with a social impact point of view across all platforms or creating content by hand and by pixel, Jana’s working process celebrates the agility of design thinking applied to ideas, a disciplined curiosity, and the joyful spirit of endless innovation—from the post-it with the big idea to the social posts.

After content creation hours, Jarosz spends her time sharing her creative expertise with students at CUNY’s City Tech, Manhattan’s only full-time night high school, and with creative-preneurs at the New Museum’s tech incubator, New Inc.

Michael Kaminski is the EP, Director of Production at JUICE Pharma Worldwide, and leads the agency’s internal B12 Studio.

Well versed in creating content while making an impact, it’s no surprise that you can find him mentoring students in the NYC SALT program or teaching photo & video workflow at SVA when he’s not busy meeting client deadlines.
