Dear Martin
Justyce McAllister is top of his class and set for the Ivy League—but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. And despite leaving his rough neighborhood behind, he can't escape the scorn of his former peers or the ridicule of his new classmates. Justyce looks to the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for answers. But do they hold up anymore? He starts a journal to Dr. King to find out.
Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up—way up, sparking the fury of a white off-duty cop beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. Justyce and Manny are caught in the crosshairs. In the media fallout, it's Justyce who is under attack.

Art Directors
Art directors are responsible for the visual style and images in magazines, newspapers, product packaging, and movie and television productions. They create the overall design and direct others who develop artwork or layouts.
Art directors typically oversee the work of other designers and artists who produce images for television, film, live performances, advertisements, or video games. They determine the overall style in which a message is communicated visually to its audience. For each project, they articulate their vision to artists. The artists then create images, such as illustrations, graphics, photographs, or charts and graphs, or design stage and movie sets, according to the art director‘s vision.
They also work with art and design staffs in advertising agencies, public relations firms, or book, magazine, or newspaper publishing to create
designs and layouts. They also work with producers and directors of theater, television, or movie productions to oversee set designs. Their work requires them to understand the design elements of projects, inspire other creative workers, and keep projects on budget and on time. Sometimes they are responsible for developing budgets and timelines.
The median annual wage for art directors was $105,180 in May 2022. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $57,820, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $207,060.

Education Needed
Art directors typically need a bachelor's degree in fine arts, a design subject, or a related field, such as communications technology.
Many art directors start out in another art-related occupation, such as fine artists or photographers. Work experience in art or design occupations develops an art director‘s ability to visually communicate to a specific audience creatively and effectively. Workers gain the appropriate education for that occupation, usually by earning a bachelor of arts or bachelor of fine arts degree.
Some art directors earn a master of fine arts (MFA) degree to supplement their work experience and show their creative or managerial ability.
| Duties
- - Determine how best to represent a concept visually
- - Determine which photographs, art, or other design elements to use
- - Develop the overall look or style of a publication, an advertising campaign, or a theater, television, or film set
- - Manage graphic designers, set and exhibit designers, or other design staff
- - Review and approve designs, artwork, photography, and graphics developed by other staff members
- - Talk to clients to develop an artistic approach and style
