• Feedback fuels your fire! Embrace it, iterate on designs, and watch as your collective vision blossoms into reality
• Team up with the Art Director and fellow 2D Artists to fine-tune and streamline the art production pipeline

• Embrace your role as a beacon of inspiration! Guide and nurture junior and mid-level artists to help them produce their best work
