the 8 types of creative directors

I’ve been really fortunate to have worked mostly with Creative Directors in "The Genius" camp.  But, I couldn’t resist poking a little fun at some of the other archetypes.

This cartoon is a response of sorts to this other cartoon I drew a while back.

And, come to think of it, my first ever Brand Camp cartoon was in this vein too.

  1. Every Creative Director believes they are The Genius. I know this because I am one!

    And leave my kids out of it!

    They’re all good, but the one on Creative Critics is genius. I think I’ve been all of them at some time. Poor designers.

    Thanks! I needed this today. Sometimes we need to be reminded not to take ourselves too seriously!

    I swear I’ve worked for a company that had every type of creative critic (aka project manager) working in the same office. I lasted 3 months.
