    art directors are funny...

    agencies are booking me sometimes as an "art director" for photography projects... I prefer to say that I am doing art direction and not that I am an Art Director in this case...

    We start to talk... blalabla good model, yes... bad make up, yes.. photographer is from spain, aha yes... blabla

    me: you like veer fonts?
    ad: what?

    me: I would suggest to put the logo in the middle and smaller
    ad: WHY? the client likes it big

    me: what do you think about the new saturday & untitled websit
    ad: who?

    me: Alex Trochut?
    ad: who?

    me: Dior Homme suit
    ad: yes yes I bought it in grey & black...

    just an example... but its sad... they loose often their sense & interest... of course not everyone... but many

    • The spectrum of the "designer" lexicon is wide enough for one to be clueless about another's interestscannonball
    • to be honest, I am just talking about the Directors from BIG companiesmoamoa
