It ebbs and flows
This time last year I was cruising. Same agency, same role and this year I'm buried
I know I’m just a junior but it sounds like you’re lucky with your CDs and clients. My ACDs lead me in one direction, CD kills it all, rework everything, client kills it, deadline remains in place and I don’t sleep in order to make it. My last headline assignment I wrote like 500 lines in a few days.
What agency? Curious about the level of work you guys produce.
Same as yourself!
Prob depends on the account(s) your on. Some are an easier lift creatively than others. Just my experience. Or you’re just really that damn good. Either or both could be true. Idk.
Sounds like you’re a natural talent
Also my feedback is always that I’m performing very well, clients like me, team dynamic is great, I surpass creative expectations. Before some of y’all insinuate otherwise lol. This is also not a brag I’m genuinely curious if I’m just naive or if I’m missing something.
Part of it could be how different stages of projects stack up. i.e. If you're at the ideation stage of several projects at once you can easily run out of time vs if things are well balanced
Set your boundaries and stay confident in your ability to meet deadlines. Do not let anyone make you feel guilty for having balance—some of them are lying, some of them have poor time management, and some lack the ability or job security to say no. Our industry is changing, however slowly.
