Art Director + Content Creator (Contract to Hire)
An Art Director + Content Creator at Door No. 3 sits at the intersection of concept, craft, and culture. This role blends motion design, content creation, and art direction into one high-impact position.
You are not just executing assets. You are shaping how ideas move.
You'll lead the creation of motion graphics, video, and social content for our clients across healthcare, mobility, education, government, and mission-driven brands. You'll concept, shoot, design, animate, edit, and produce work that performs in the real world. Not just in a portfolio.
This is a leadership-through-craft role for someone who can think strategically, execute at a high level, and bring scalable content systems to life.
You'll report to the Executive Creative Director and collaborate closely with Art Directors, Designers, Media, and Account teams.
We are a lean, senior team with a high bar. We're looking for someone who is a doer and a team player, who can flex between a variety of tasks, from owning and elevating content creation to developing client-ready decks to assisting art directors with re-sizes and versioning.
