A Freelance Art Director's Career
Artisan Talent Tip: A freelance art director is the next step for a designer in terms of experience and industry knowledge. Besides understanding design and production thoroughly, a good art director will be able to work collaboratively with copywriters, creative directors, brand managers, and others in an organization, and supervise freelance designers as needed. The most important difference between a designer and an art director is in people skills. A designer may work primarily alone, accepting assignments and sending off completed work. An art director's job is heavy on communication, involving close cooperation with copywriters, creative directors, brand managers and others. You may even get to hire your own freelance design team to bring your ideas to life!
