I attended a panel entitled ” Coloring Our Sets in Style” and found an amazing collection of uber-talented creatives who gave some astounding statistics on the scarcity of people of color in their guild. They also tackled the question of AI coming for their jobs. Please take a look and listen to one of the most compelling segments of the PAFF Institute. Shout-out to LAMOH and Shelly Wallace for assembling this group.

Art directors determine which photographs, art, or other design elements to use. Art directors are responsible for the visual style and images in magazines, newspapers, product packaging, and movie and television productions. They create the overall design and direct others who develop artwork or layouts.

A skilled and creative art director can make your company stand out from the crowd. The best talent will respond favorably to a well-written art director job description and salary information (if provided), so this is your chance to put your best foot forward.
Could anyone recommend a black freelance set designer please? Preferably Midlands based #artsjobs #theatre #diversity pic.twitter.com/1V52l4gaxQ
