Job Title: Art Director – EY GDS Studio (Recording, Streaming & Live Broadcast) / Assistant director

About EY GDS Studio

• EY GDS Studio is an integrated creative and broadcast space designed to function like a corporate newsroom — agile, insight-led, and visually dynamic.
• Equipped for recording, streaming, and live broadcasting, the studio delivers leadership messages, brand storytelling, and thought leadership content to audiences across EY’s global network.
• This is where communication meets production — combining the polish of a newsroom with the creativity of an agency.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an Art Director who can lead the creative vision for EY GDS Studio — bringing together design, storytelling, and broadcast aesthetics across recorded, live, and hybrid formats.

You’ll set the creative tone for everything from leadership townhalls and live streams to news-style segments and campaign videos, ensuring every frame reflects EY’s brand voice, visual excellence, and purpose.

Your Key Responsibilities

Creative & Visual Leadership

• Own the creative direction and art supervision across all studio outputs — recorded, live, and streamed content.
• Design the visual architecture of live broadcasts: on-screen graphics, lower-thirds, transitions, overlays, and branding elements.
• Develop storyboards, mood boards, and design templates that bring complex messages to life visually.
• Shape and maintain the studio’s creative identity to mirror a global newsroom — dynamic, precise, and brand-right.

Studio & Broadcast Design

• Collaborate with production and AV teams to design backdrops, lighting, and stage environments suitable for both live and recorded formats.
• Guide the visual setup for multi-camera shoots, LED wall compositions, and interactive screens.
• Define broadcast graphics standards — framing ratios, color grading, data display, and animation systems.

Live Streaming & Production Direction

• Partner with producers and technical directors during live broadcasts to ensure seamless creative execution.
• Supervise rehearsals, live transitions, and visual cues to maintain visual continuity and composure under time pressure.
• Create brand-consistent visual assets for webcasts, hybrid events, and live-streamed leadership communications.

Innovation & Continuous Evolution

• Introduce newsroom-style innovation: live graphics, data visualizations, and AI-driven video formats.
• Collaborate with tech and comms teams to explore new tools for virtual production, AR, and real-time graphics.
• Anticipate trends in digital broadcasting and corporate storytelling to keep the studio experience cutting-edge.

Team Collaboration & Mentorship

• Mentor designers, editors, and motion artists — fostering excellence in design and live production craft.
• Collaborate closely with communication leads, event producers, and brand teams to ensure unified storytelling.
• Champion high creative standards and message alignment across all studio formats.

Skills and Attributes for Success

• Proven expertise in art direction for live or studio production, preferably in a newsroom, broadcast, or hybrid corporate setup.
• Strong design sensibility with deep understanding of motion graphics, lighting, and set design for live environments.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, with familiarity in live graphics tools (e.g., vMix, OBS, Vizrt, Unreal Engine, or similar).
• Strong grasp of camera framing, transitions, and broadcast composition.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills to bridge creative and technical teams.
• Calm under pressure — able to make real-time creative calls during live sessions.

Experience & Qualification

• 8–12 years of experience in art direction, broadcast design, or live production.
• Experience working with live-streaming and hybrid event setups.
• Bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication, Design, or related field.

What We Offer

At EY GDS, you’ll help pioneer a new era of corporate storytelling — where live conversations, leadership broadcasts, and creative design come together to inform, engage, and inspire.

You’ll work in a high-energy studio that mirrors the pace of a newsroom — where every project challenges you to blend design precision, storytelling power, and live agility.
