Episode 043: Lazarus Chernik (Take 2)

Episode 043: March 3 2025

Lazarus Chernik takes over the show for one episode to talk about Art Directors, Art Direction, their role in creative project management, and why they are (supposed to be) an artist’s best friend. It is also a career path for artists that is rarely talked about.

About Lazarus:
Lazarus has led artists and teams for nearly 30 years, including building and staffing multiple art departments from scratch and writing the manuals for those departments on how they need to work. His clients include multinational financial institutions, media companies, publishers, manufacturers, foods, game companies, and many more - all the way down to simple mom-and-pop retailers. Like Echo, he is a judge for Illustrators of the Future.
