Transcript excerpt

The era of casual aesthetics is over. We're all directors now. Let's talk about the art direction of everything. I saw these wedding photos shot by a fashion photographer that blew me away. It reminded me of this new visual era we live in. Brides follow accounts like Lensel and bring inspo and concepts to their wedding photographers. The office selfie has been elevated to a personal branding art. Having a partner or a friend that takes really good photos of you actually puts you in the position to make more money. It is an asset. That one photo wall in a retail space could be the difference between a store that goes viral or quietly closes. So So if you're building something, it's worth thinking through the art direction universe around it. One that includes objects, because a glass, coffee bag, or a strategic bouquet can become a visual rank. Concepts, because your audience needs a reason to look again. Themes, to give your visuals coherence over time. And composition, because that carousel hookshot needs to stop the scroll. Clayton from Sprezza and I sat down with some of our art director friends in New York, in a new YouTube video with Air talking about all these concepts.
