Art Producer vs Print Producer

February 26, 2018

Q:

What is the difference between an Art Producer and a Print Producer? And when sending promos who precisely should I target?

A:

An art producer is the same as an art buyer, just a new term that sums up their role more accurately. If an agency has an art producer then I’d skip their print producers who often have nothing to do with choosing photographers. The only reason I’d contact a print producer is if the agency does not have an art producer, because then they are most likely doing both jobs. Definitely send promos to all levels of Art Producers (or art buyers). A print producer is the person who gets the image ready to go to print.
