layout artist

Page design specialist

A layout artist designs the visual arrangement of elements on a page or screen—positioning text, images, and graphics in publications, advertisements, websites, or other media.

In animation and film, a layout artist determines camera angles, backgrounds, and scene composition before detailed work begins: The layout artist blocked out each frame of the chase sequence.
