Tech Pack Creation

Responsibility was to work with client's concept design to turn into a manufacture-able product.  In this project, I took designer's artwork files and produced 10+ page tech pack file to provide to manufacturer to produce samples.  Then evaluated samples with team and applied revisions  and updated tech pack files until product was finalized.

Moose Racing Sahara Pant Tech Pack

Worked with design team to create new and improved Moose Racing Sahara racewear.  I took design teams final designs to create tech pack specification file to develop samples with overseas factory partner.  Field tested, test fit, revised, and communicated revisions and final artwork with factory until we reached final product to launch.
