33 things I know about Art Direction

33 things I know about Art Direction | Digital Presentations in Education | Scoop.it
Things that might just help young creatives, about the Art direction.
Karen Aguilar's curator insight, February 22, 2013 2:42 PM

David Bell is an expert in design, and he shows this throughout this presentation. All the content in the slides is quite accurate for the topic of "art direction". What I liked the most about his brief but goog-looking article was that he gave important data and tips not just with words but also with the visual part. I think that's an important thing when it comes to designers telling us about design.

 

On the other hand, I think part of the content is only understood by designers, because it has many references to visual knowledge, that maybe not all of the people is able to understand. I'd like David Bell to make "33 things I know about Art Direction" for dummies. 7/10
