Watson is looking for an accomplished Art Director / Motion Designer with hands-on capabilities and an eye for design.

In this role, your focus is all around the craft and concepts of a campaign. Beyond the look and feel of a visual direction, you define the why and how of that direction —going beyond single assets and further defining how a campaign comes together collectively. Additionally, you'll be looked to for creative concepts that build off of the campaign strategy and creative direction.

Reporting into a Creative Director, you’ll both support and lead on a mix of visual exploration and production —ensuring consistency, cohesiveness and an elevated and rationalized aesthetic across all output.

Responsibilities

• Create and develop campaigns for films, TV series, and brands based on a defined art direction or supporting brand guidelines.
• Work in tandem with the creative team to confidently brainstorm and define concepts and executions with an emphasis on craft and conversation.
• The development and creation of presentation decks for holistic campaigns, visual direction, and concept deliveries.
• Create or guide the creation of visuals that communicate the message, tone, and idea while ensuring the defined art direction is always adhered to.
• Lead other members of the creative team, such as illustrators, animators, and designers to bring cohesive visual elements to the project.
• Ensure details such as imagery, font selection, hierarchy, and spacing are not only legible, but thematically aligned with the campaign vision.
• Confirm assets suit all digital platforms for optimal experience.
• Expertly master Adobe Creative Suite while ensuring you efficiently and effectively influence the development of others who use it.
• Ensure project assets are organized and managed for easy access and efficient workflows for yourself and the creative team around you.
• Manage workloads and project deadlines for yourself while ensuring the creatives supporting you are moving forward efficiently.
• Conduct thorough reviews of all work to ensure accuracy, consistency, and high-quality creative outputs — all adhering to the production timeline.
• Present visual direction and concepts to internal stakeholders and external clients with the ability to adapt and amplify off provided feedback and direction.
