Our client is looking for an Art Director (Experiential / Production Design) to join their team! This is a full-time, 40 hours/week, 12-month contract assignment that will require hybrid work in Los Angeles, CA, with collaboration tied to a large-scale immersive environment. Responsibilities:
Lead the creative vision and art direction for a large-scale, cinematic immersive environment, shaping the visual identity and bringing a new experiential "world" to life from concept through execution.
Define and evolve the spatial narrative, establishing tone, atmosphere, and visual cohesion across all environments while elevating the guest experience through thoughtful world-building.
Translate conceptual ideas into fully realized physical environments, guiding production design across scenic elements, architecture, props, and materiality to achieve a cohesive and believable world.
Drive hands-on development of the environment, actively pushing and refining creative direction in partnership with internal teams and external partners to ensure a high level of craft and innovation.
Lead and mentor a multidisciplinary team-including set designers, scenic designers, illustrators, and fabrication partners-providing clear direction, feedback, and approvals throughout all phases of design and production.
Collaborate closely with producers, technical teams, and cross-functional stakeholders to align creative vision with feasibility, timelines, and budget while maintaining design integrity.
Oversee and approve all visual outputs, including environmental design, scenic treatments, props, signage, and CMF palettes, ensuring consistency, quality, and a cinematic level of detail across the experience.
Requirements:
Proven experience in art direction or production design for large-scale immersive environments, themed entertainment, live experiences, or film/television set design.
Strong background in building cinematic or real-world environments (vs. stylized/animated), with a deep understanding of spatial storytelling, materials, and physical production.
Demonstrated ability to lead creative teams and guide projects from early concept through fabrication and installation.
Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams and external vendors, balancing creative ambition with technical and operational constraints.
