About

VP Creative, Grapevine Star Entertainment Inc.
Senior Consultant & Team Leader, Social Media Analysts™
Owner, QuietYell LLC

Scott Monaco serves as Grapevine Star Entertainment Inc.'s Vice President of Creative and as Senior Consultant & Team Leader for Social Media Analysts LLC. Mr. Monaco is a visionary designer and entrepreneur that has excelled for over 10 years in entertainment property development, illustration, product design, graphic design, advertising, and web design and development amidst other similar disciplines. His creative leadership has led him to be the founder of multiple endeavors as well as hold art direction & design positions at multiple agencies.

Scott served as a designer at Ignition Inc., an industrial design firm (employed from 1997-2000). He supported and helped develop creative concepts from market & demographic R&D through minor product styling & product brand identity to hand & digital rendering of product concept illustrations including the building & rendering of 3D computer models of various product concepts for products & brands including Fossil Watch's re-entry into digital "brain" & pda watches, next generation cell phones for Fujitsu, next generation children's hand-held mobile video devices for Stick Networks, and others from companies such as Samsung, Texas Instruments, Motorola, DSC, Alcatel, etc. Mr. Monaco also worked on projects including corporate identity systems, brochures/literature creation, packaging, art directing product photo shoots, promotional communications, posters, exhibit/display design, and trade show booth graphics. He was also responsible for web initiatives and digital flash presentations, along with the development of presentation print collateral and short concept & presentation animations including one for a Ignition's award acceptance over LeapFrog's original Phonics Desk.

Following his time at Ignition, Scott co-founded Spiniker Media Group in 2000. Scott managed clients as creative lead on the development of client projects including concept ideation, brand identity, print & web marketing & advertising, website development (front-end design including interface design & site architecture), interactive presentations, flash animations, video animations, art direction of photo shoots, packaging design, and served in other creative lead capacities. Spiniker's client list ranged multiple industries including collaboration with various Dallas-based agencies bringing clients such as Boy Scouts of America (intranet concept work), GameStop (web concepts), Pecan Deluxe Candy Company (website & packaging), Santera Systems (trade show animation development), Tidel (web development, product slick sheets, etc.), Troy Aikman (website development), Mike Modano (website development), TXU Energy (interactive flash presentation with video), Walmart (web ads), and others.

Leaving Spiniker in 2003 to pursue intellectual property development, Mr. Monaco spent the following year developing the concepts, artwork, website, and marketing materials (including product concepts) for his co-founded company, MeMe & My World Inc. During this time, Scott co-founded Release Studios, offering agency services from brand identity and print collateral to web & interactive development. Clients ranged industries including People Solutions / Portenta HR System (extranet application site architecture & usability), Sunstone Yoga (logo & website), Taqua Voip (website), Urban America Television Network (logo & identity collateral), AFC (Advanced Fiber Communication) (flash animation), Blockbuster (3D store traffic-flow layout & planogram), and others.

As MeMe & My World Inc. continued development, Scott expanded I.P. development with Jacob R. Miles III through Grapevine Star Entertainment Inc. During this development time, Scott took a position as Art Director at Calise & Sedei ad agency (from 2004-2005). Calise & Sedei had been a client of Scott's company, Spiniker. Responsibilities ranged from art direction & marketing campaign concept development to graphic/print design, web design/development, interactive presentations, and animation support for multiple clients including Ace Cash Express (tv & radio commercial concept & development), Cool Cuts 4 Kids (direct mail & in-store signage), Service Experts (franchisee logo structure, direct mail, photo shoot art direction, print ads, etc.), Starlight Power (Now "Texas Power Online") (ad campaign concept, art direction & development, web development, direct mail, etc.), and other various clients.

As GrapevineStar's development increased, Mr. Monaco took an art direction & design position at Springboard Agency (from 2005-2008) to be in closer proximity with Jacob. Springboard Agency had been a client of Scott's company, Spiniker. Similar to Calise & Sedei, responsibilities at Springboard ranged from art direction and brand identity design to direct mail, print ads, billboards, presentation collateral, etc. to website development, Flash animation, and more. Client included: American Floral Industry Association (convention campaign branding, direct mail, website, ads, etc.), Dallas Desperados (game program magazine, posters, tickets, ads, point-of-purchase displays, etc.), Dallas Mavericks (presentation support), Yao Ming (web maintenance), Daystar TV (website support, direct mail, dvd & cd booklets, etc.), Love & War In Texas (menu designs, website, ads, etc.), Gameworks (in-store signage & posters), and other various clients.

In 2006, Scott founded QuietYell LLC for the development of urban asian intellectual properties & products. QuietYell is represented by Grapevine Star Entertainment Inc.

In early 2008, the continued growth & opportunity allowed Mr. Monaco to leave Springboard Agency to focus on GrapevineStar full time, serving as VP Creative. Since mid-2003, Scott has developed not only the brands of GrapevineStar but has also developed the digital distribution network, including the asset manager, website & social network strategies, as well as the detailed vision of the 3 proprietary social network systems. Though Scott has played and continues to play an instrumental role in GrapevineStar's overall vision & development since its inception, his primary responsibilities are to the creative arm of the company. The Creative Department is responsible for the development of GSE content from Concepting to Creation & Development, Creative Production, and Support. Content development includes all disciplines including: writing, graphic design, web design, illustration, photography, animation, video/film, TV, audio, video/online game, mobile, product, etc. The Creative Department also supports other internal GSE departments as well as external licensors, partners, contractors, vendors, etc.

With years of design, illustration, branding, advertising, and web development, Mr. Monaco now applies this experience towards the creation, development, marketing and business growth of his entertainment and product ventures at Grapevine Star Entertainment Inc. Whatever the niche a brand falls within, Mr. Monaco's creative & internet/interactive technology skills, insight and diversity provide depth and richness to whatever project he is involved with.
