Art Director

Description

We are currently seeking a full-time Art Director to lead creative teams of designers and motion graphic artists.

HUE&CRY is a new studio focusing on motion graphics, live action and the combination of the two. We make solid work built on solid ideas and we want you to help shape our voice and position on the visual landscape.

You must have a strong sense of story telling, a graceful touch with typography, and most importantly, an impeccable sense of design. You must think in color and dream of form. You smell like style. Your attention to detail is thorough, and a radical conceptual symphony pours from your brain. You must be adept at juggling multiple projects and excel in a fast-paced, deadline driven environment. You must be ready to attack at a moments notice and make work that defends itself. This is what we expect of our art directors.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Create and present concepts, boards and style frames to clients.

• Lead client creative reviews and serve as the client-facing creative lead on projects.

• Ability to facilitate brainstorming sessions.

• Nurture and grow talent. Work closely with, lead, encourage and inspire a team of staff and freelance designers and animators.

 

REQUIRED SKILLS / QUALIFICATIONS:

• 3-5 years experience as a creative lead for broadcast and other video content.

• BFA or BA degree with emphasis on motion design.

• Deep understanding of fundamental visual design principles.

• Strong design and typographic sense and thorough knowledge of motion graphic design and post-production workflows.

• Highly organized, self-motivated and able to adapt to changing priorities and strict deadlines.

• Must be a team player, passionate about motion design and thrive in a fast paced creative environment.

• Excellent written, verbal and presentation skills.

 

HUE&CRY offers a respectable set of benefits and is interested in helping you grow as a person and as a professional. We are in Richmond, VA. Richmond is charming, relaxed city blossoming with artistic initiative and we want you here too.
