The Magic TCG Studio is looking for an Art Director who is passionate about fantasy art, physical product design, and exploring how specialty print can bring extraordinary collectible cards to life.

This is a tactical, hands-on role where you’ll explore visual treatments and card-frame designs while exploring how offset printing, specialty inks, materials, and finishes can become part of the creative expression. You’ll work closely with Production Artists and collaborate with creative, production, and manufacturing partners to turn creative ideas into exceptional collectible cards.

• Bring an analytical eye to print-ready files, print separations, proofs, and physical samples to anticipate how builds will come together and ensure quality.
• Explore visual trends, collectible products, materials, and emerging print technologies to bring new ideas to Magic.

What You'll Bring:

• 4+ years of professional graphic design and/or art direction experience, ideally with physical products, print, packaging, or collectibles.
• Hands-on experience developing specialty print treatments and a strong understanding of offset printing, prepress, color separations, materials, and finishing processes.
• A portfolio demonstrating strong visual judgment, graphic design, art direction, and physical print execution.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator, with a strong eye for detail and experience preparing technically accurate print-production files.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to balance creative ambition with manufacturing feasibility and a passion for experimentation and continuous learning.
