What does an art director do?
As an AD, ideas are your playground. Your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to bring brands to life.
Together with your copywriting partner (most pros work as a pair) you tinker and explore new concepts, and new ways of communicating your client’s promise. You create websites, billboards, TikTok campaigns…anything to deliver your message. Every day is a new adventure.
JAYANTA JENKINSHead of Content Marketing at Disney+
“Going to M.AD gave me the opportunity to know if this business would be right for me. I can’t describe how grateful I am for the experiences I’ve gotten through this profession.”
The Art Direction Curriculum at M.AD
What (and how) you’ll be learning.
Your training covers everything you need to know for a brilliant career in Art Direction.
Courses are practical. Instructors are all top communication professionals (art directors, creative directors, videographers, producers, etc..) They teach you the skills they use everyday at the agencies where they work. Class projects are realistic. You may even work on a live project for a brand and present your ideas to the client. Students have created a Super Bowl spot that aired, a Facebook app for UNICEF and a social media campaign for Burger King.
You’ll use design, type, illustration and photography to create anything that can tell a story for a brand. Teamed with a copywriter you’ll brainstorm and produce magazine ads, videos, websites, TV commercials…maybe even temporary tattoos, or an original action figure. It gets wild and creative. And the skills you learn will last for laugh.
It all goes down with an innovative curriculum of courses like:
- Ideas First
- Video Storytelling
- Short & Sweet
- Everything is Media
- User Experience
- Visual Impact
- Motion Graphics or Short Cutz
- Digital Campaigns
- Gaming Concepts
- Pop Culture Engineering
- Social Media
- The Brand Called You
- Product Creation
- Content Creation
- Get a Job

BRIG WHITEFreelance Director (Apple, Adidas, Amazon)
“Before M.AD, I was pretty much without a plan. I liked design, but didn’t know much about it. I liked reading books and watching movies. But other than that, I had no idea what I wanted to do."
