Disney Industry Investigation

Industry Investigation As of right now, I am investigating the industry of marketing design and directing. I am not fully confident that this is the industry that I will want to pursue, but am considering. Marketing design and directing means that I would have the skills of a designer, but also able to apply those with marketing skills and become a visual marketing director.

The only jobs associated with Walt Disney in either Michigan, or Ohio are at Disney Stores. These jobs are not similar to the industry I am researching.

Herdmark Media creates engaging content design about the topic of agriculture. I am not able to find how many years of experience are needed for this position, but I assume that a lot of experience and knowledge is needed in multiple areas of visual communication just by looking at the job description. Therefore, three job descriptions are • Working collaboratively with clients, team members, and the project Director to establish a creative vision and manage the creative process for all Herdmark projects • Work hand in hand with the Production Lead to ensure all projects are completed effectively and on time. • Contribute to Field Notes (blog) of the Herdmark Media, Inc.
