For a 'How to Create your own Character' feature opener. Illustration: Pete Fowler.
Over my 5 years as Acting Art Editor and designer at Computer Arts Projects, I was fortunate enough to commission & art direct some of the best designers and illustrators in the industry. Cover, editorial illustrations, and step-by-step tutorials all utilized new specialist designers and illustrators to appeal to readers. The art direction is frequently ideas based & concept driven to playfully visually convey the title of the editorial. Here are some of my favourites.
Art Direction included a detailed brief outlining concept, purpose, composition, spec, and style sample. As well as the creative side, I was also responsible for the contracts, rights negotiation, usage, fee, managing budgets and deadlines.
