MATTE is hiring a Senior Art Director to work directly with our Creative Director across a roster that includes Marc Jacobs, Genesis House, Disney, Warner Bros., Four Seasons, Moncler, Salomon, Oura, and more.

We are looking for a creative with a strong style, a deep reference library, and an exacting standard for craft at every stage, from first concept to final delivery.

Conceptualize, lead deck design, build custom mockups sharp enough for high-visibility luxury presentations, and source image swipe that holds up in front of a discerning client.

Work on the visual side of shoots end to end: shot lists, production design, prop and set decoration, casting, and direction across styling.

Evaluate photographers and directors brought on, and act as the connective tissue between photographer, talent, client, and our client services team on set, translating creative intent into clear, actionable direction for every department.

Run selects and retouching rounds, supervise color and edit, communicate directly with retouchers, and be the arbiter of delivery specs and formatting post-shoots

MATTE is a 360° full-service creative studio at the convergence of hype, storytelling and design. We bring people together to inspire new ways of engaging, to provoke long term progress, and to entertain audiences around the world, while helping forward-thinking brands and institutions nimbly and truly do the same.
