    Creative Director sounds more like a project manager that also oversees the artistic aspect. Whereas Art Director is more tailored towards all artistic aspects.

    If anyone has seen Mad Men a good way of thinking about this that Don is the creative director and Sal is the art director.

    this is an amazing explanation!!
    now I can tell what my sis is and what I am !!!
    - I'm an art director I do thing ! imaging thing and make it into real! and more I can take what other say and translated into scene! and turned into movie with many technical things!
    - my sis Is the Creative director because she tells me Do this ! because It will make sure people will got cry on this scene and will love it ! , and she ready to observe what others are saying and make a scenario and ask me to start making !
    I really got motivated when I'm with her !

    Hi Mark,
    Thanks for your great video. It’s very articulate and give such a good description of differences we tween one director and another and give some good insights into the world of print media, whether it’s for magazines visuals online or outdoor advertising, i.e. billboards,, subway & bus art etc.
    I’m in a funny position, perhaps in my third or fourth midlife crisis when it comes to career. My background is the motion picture industry, with a lot of my work being on national and international TV commercials. Obviously The production companies deal very directly with broadcast coordinators, with the clients, with creative directors, production designers, art directors, and various other departments from the ad shops.
    With over 50,000 hours and experience on commercials, I’m hoping to work in some creative area at a commercial art studio or at an ad agency.
    I’m fluent in Spanish and can relocate anywhere on the map.
    I’m curious if you have any suggestions. As with anything I’m more interested in the wealth and adventures and new life experiences, more than just a big bucks.
    Cheers, and thanks again for such an insightful video,
    Hunter M., a Clio winner

    Thanks for the info. Now you only need to invest in a better microphone and use some minimal amounts of audio noise reduction, and your videos will step up to the next level. Also, your camera angles needs to be further apart. An old journalism term is to think of a circle around your subject and keep your two cameras at a 30 degree difference to each other.

    Hey! Just trying to break that down further. Would you say it’s accurate that a Creative Director is more conceptual and goal driven with the client and senior/junior designers. While an Art Director oversees the production side of things, like printing, and works with designers to be sure everything looks top notch to go to final production. But the Art Director may not be as conceptual as far as brand development. (This maybe too far, but an art director could be like a “Final Production Director” ish).

    Beware of Creative Directors with degrees in things other than art or design, they usually have no design chops, are very square and got the job through connections rather than creative ability.

    I am a Creative Director and in my career, I have seen many many useless brand strategists : they just report what they see, they don’t understand trends. Despite having seen a bunch of toxic CD, rarely have I seen incompetent ones. AD+COPY+CD are more than enough to get it. Good brand strategists are too rare, that’s a fact. A CD is crucial to lead a team, they have the high level strategic and creative vision. Replace the brand strategist with the Copy, free the AD & the Copy time and they’ll smash it while the CD can teach them to level up their thinking

      Hopefully this got you in time. 90% of creative directors come from graphic design but you’ll need to familiarise yourself with multiple disciplines. Namely, videography, animation/motion graphics, web/ux design and marketing. Most of these, apart from marketing, are covered in a good graphic design degree
