And while I started to have success, post-covid economics have shut a lot of my clients down. So finding mentorship to navigate and rebuild makes this video really valuable...thank you!

    I am creative director/ art lead of a small indie game developement team. It is extremely demanding but extremely rewarding work. I make the plannings as well so my team always knows the time and dates. But sometimes i gotta play with the schedules because i'd rather have an artist take a little extra time to understand a certain principle better. Means she operates faster later on but most importantly the quality is much better.

The Sr. program manage sabotaged the entire project by not communicating & denying every motion to accomplish the Directors Top 3 directives. I accomplished two , but when it came down to the main reason why I came into the team. She denied the motion. 1 week to completion ( final deliverable : “strategy plan” ) and still no payment ! What should I do!?

Recognized, remember. Brand promise: What value bringing to customer. Mission. How we are different, how we are better? Brand equity: result of everything. Word of mouth marketing.

    Hello, I am currently majoring in marketing (this will be my third year) but I want to become a creative director. Is this possible to achieve this career with my degree or should I change it. I was thinking of minoring in art or media management, my college does not offer a graphic design minor. This video was very informative, thank you!

    • @PhilipVanDusen
      @PhilipVanDusen 12 дней назад

      Minoring in art won't help. Media management is a better minor. But if you want to be a CD, you have to be a designer first. Marketing is a good foundation though that many creative don't have, so that will help you, but you need to study design, either in school or on your own!

    Great video, great info. I'm currently a Marketing Manager, but I'm lookin for a way to get into the more creative side of marketing. I do photography and videography as a side-hustle so I have that sort of experience, but I'm just starting to learn graphic design. Am I headed down the right path? Should I be looking to eventually get a role as a junior designer and then work my way up?

    • @komalkr4222
      @komalkr4222 18 дней назад

      NO. You should not get a job as a junior graphic designer. If you work as a video editor as a side hustle you can apply for a Video Editor role in an agency. Learn graphic design side by side And then try side projects of design as well. Marketing skill will be an add on in this to get more side hustle projects.

Apart from the main job requirements, I aim is to remain humble and approachable to my team - this creates a togetherness - which always generates the best work. The best idea can come from anyone 👍🏻
