Some good responses in here. I would like to think I'm a good Art Director but I guess until one of my designers comes on here and I catch them saying bad things about me I'll never know for sure.

(Aug 29 06, 13:58)oh shit... forgot to tell you... after i left i guess the cd tried desperately to talk her way out of posting my job and when it didnt' work she i guess had her doctor give her a 4 week off pass from work for being 'so sick'. i'm sure it was to try and diffuse the situation.
last i heard she was on a suspension pending. i think they are trying to replace her but are trying to figure out what they can do legally cause she could sue (cause she's that type of person) if they fired her for taking off so much work when she says she's 'sick'.
crazy shit.

my ex AD was a nice guy out of the office (and if work wasn't being talked about), but I think he often felt threatened that someone else would surpass him creatively. Not that his job was on the line, being a partner/owner, but I think it was more of a blow to his ego.

I disagree with e-pill that an art director is a failed artist. They can be, sure, but not always. It depends on the place they work that they have that position.

i draw pichas 'n click ma mouse
art directors are different in each medium (film, print, interactive, gay midget anal pr0n etc etc)... I've always found that an Art Director 'should' be well-rounded w/his/her team's skills... and a good designer themselves... and able to keep the team focused and working in continuity while be the liason w/the client...
... i couldz be wrongz thoughzz
