Production Designer Reviews
What is it like working as a Production Designer?
June 2022
Print Production Designer.
Production Designer in Los Angeles:
Pros: I love working in print. It’s so satisfying to get to have creative freedom on a project, produce custom work, and see the final product tangible and know that is it printed and distributed worldwide in mass.
Cons: Lack of community or having physical distance to limit/prevent human connection or a thriving creative environment.
December 2021
Competitive.
Production Designer in San Francisco:
Pros: There are often a fair amount of opportunities, however, my field is very competitive.
Cons: Sometimes the people are rude, and competitive.
August 2020
It’s alright.
Production Designer in Cincinnati:
Pros: Small town feel, you get to work with a lot of the same people no matter where you go.

Get what you can get.

May 2018
It's a great place to live.
Production Designer in Portland:
Pros: Working in Portland means that you love near Portland, and it's a great place to live. From the natural beauty, to all the potential adventures, to the bustling city, to the fun restaurants and activities to do you really can't go wrong.
