If you’re in ad school, or just landed your first internship or job as a junior art director, then I hope this helps you.

It’s not much of an article. It’s more like a tool box.

I’m not going to share a lot of tips or advice on how to kill it as a young, ambitious art director because quite frankly — I don’t have the experience to warrant giving any advice myself. I’m also not going to talk about every single piece of software you should already be learning (ie. every Adobe CC program).

This is merely my attempt to share all of the resources I am currently using and find super helpful. Some of them are resources that I learned in school from other classmates or teachers. And some of them are things that coworkers and mentors have shared with me. I’ll update this article when I have more resources to share.

You deserve to hit the ground running, and I think these resources are going to enable you to do that.

That’s all I got for now! Let me know what your 2 cents are, and what resources I’m missing out on!
