Production Designer
What is a Production Designer?
We marry both technical and creative problems by using our graphic design skills to support campaigns. Once a concept has been established, we help to blow out all deliverables. We work fast and efficiently, and we love learning new skills and helping others.
“Usually I’m building out Instagram ads, Meta, Facebook. A lot ofreels, a lot of social media advertising. The number one thing I love about my job is the people I work with.”

This is what I do most days…
I work with our project managers and design teams on projects that our clients need created.
I follow the Art Director’s ideas and use them to edit photos, layouts, and create and update content.
I use computer design software to create digital ads, social media content, emails and websites, and design print materials.
