The U.S. Department of Labor predicts that employment for production designers and art directors in television broadcasting will grow slower than the average for all careers through 2024. Little or no change in employment is expected for those who work in the film industry. It is important to note that there are more production designers and art directors than the number of available job openings (especially at major television and film production companies). As a result, those wishing to enter the field will encounter keen competition for salaried, staff positions as well as for freelance work.
