To be a good art director / junior art director, you must have a natural creative flair and a strong visual style. In the advertising industry, a junior art director is responsible for creating visual concepts in response to clients’ briefs and relaying them to the art director. This work involves all media platforms, including:
- Marketing materials
- Press and print advertising
- Television and video
- Logos and branding
Junior art directors need to be natural visual thinkers, ready to expand on their skills and learn from senior art directors in order to flourish.
Often working with a copywriter to develop ideas and concepts, the job demands the confidence to creatively assert ideas and the passion to sell ideas to peers and clients. A junior art director will also have some responsibility to help develop the design offering of an agency.

- Generating original visual executions that are both exciting and creatively attractive
- Delivering work of the highest quality after working with team members to develop new ideas
- Working with the art director and account managers to establish appropriate creative directions
