Marc Benanti is the founder and CEO of Mirvinsworld Digital. Marc’s career was born out of a passion for fantasy illustration. That led to other areas of graphic art including photo retouching and manipulation, comic book coloring (digital), corporate design, calendars, etc. Marc completed his Bachelor's Degree in graphic design & illustration at the School Of Visual Arts in 2000. His first post college position was with one of New York’s major outdoor advertising company, Artkraft Strauss Sign Corporation. He quickly rose to the position of Head Graphic Designer. Early in the game, Marc was an innovator in a very innovative industry. Within the first year at Artkraft, Marc’s fresh approach resulted in recognition for his work by clients and his employer… It was at this time that the seeds for Mirvinsworld Digital were planted.
Mirvinsworld Digital was established in 1993, primarily as a freelance operation to meet the demand for photo retouching, graphic design, corporate identity & logo design. What started out as a small part-time "gig" soon blossomed into a widely recognized and respected graphic design company. Mirvinworld’s mission was and is simple. Provide the ultimate in graphic design services; using communication skills, marketing experience, education and creativity. Marc built it, and the clients followed… Mirvinsworld Digital began to grow by word of mouth (still one of the best ways for a business to gain recognition). Each successful project led to more people learning about their existence and capabilities. Mirvinsworld Digital dares to “push the envelope”. If they can imagine it, they can produce it. Mirvinsworld’s excellent reputation has a foundation of satisfied clients, and the foundation continues to grow stronger nearly 20 years after they began.
Since April of 2005, Marc has been at Titan as the Head Graphic Designer / Marketing Coordinator for the New Jersey Transit Division of Titan. Titan NJ handles all the bus and rail advertising for New Jersey Transit, Coach USA, Titan offers clients the opportunity to benefit from Marc’s lengthy experience as a graphic designer. Taking a client’s concept and molding that into an effective bus/rail campaign is still something that Marc finds most gratifying.
Marc is a native of Staten Island, New York. He enjoys spending his “off” time with his wife of 11 years, Susie, and their three children - Brandon (15), Hailey (13) and Aiden (9, who is affectionately known as “Mr. Bibs”. In addition to his love of all things related to graphic arts, Marc also enjoys watching and playing hockey, swimming, reading comic books and going to the movies with the kids.
