The media landscape is constantly changing. It is changing more rapidly now than it ever has and Village Green Studios has an eye on it. We’ve been in the digital design and marketing space since 2000 and have steadily grown our offerings to include web design, print design, collateral, advertising, business cards, videos, social media marketing and more!
VGS is run by me, Jason Sikes. I live to be creative and make things, especially strategically creative things…for artists! I love working with and helping other artists. I taught myself to use the tools of design and web design, mixed in a healthy dose of the marketing experience I garnered (see below) and in what feels like an instant, Village Green Studios is moving in on its 25 year anniversary with four full-time employees.
I graduated Northwestern University in 1986 with a BS degree in Radio, TV & Film with a minor in Fine Art. Following graduation, I worked in the arts: performance art planner for the Chicago Office of Fine Arts, Artistic Director for the M.A.R.S Artspace and a gallery represented fine artist and neon bender.
I later talked my way into a junior marketing exec position at the just launched E! Entertainment Television where I worked a block up from the famous Hollywood & Vine. Lots of bums and heroin addicts hung out down there back then. None of which were famous.
Made my way over to the struggling, then four-night-a-week, FOX network as a mid-level marketing guy. My office had a view of the gate in the Charlie’s Angels open. Then was tapped to be the Director of Development for Daytime, Latenight and Alternative Programming.
I left with a buddy and we sold and produced a whole mess of TV pilots. None of which made it to air for various and often bizarre reasons. Came back to the corporate side, got my VP stripes but it just wasn’t for me. After 8 months I chucked my stripes and started Village Green Studios.
