A day in the life
You’ll start your day reviewing production schedules and connecting with your direct reports (Art
Directors, Stylist, Videographers) on priorities and blockers. You might join a creative kick-off for a new

post-production review providing feedback on edits and color correction. You’ll close the day by
updating stakeholders on progress, conducting a 1:1 with a team member, and planning for the next
production milestone.
