Job Description: Duties for this position require the ability to use common media such as tempera, oils, pen-and-ink, or pencil with average skill. The Illustrator I copies drawings, either by tracing or freehand; applies coloring or wash to line drawings; letters by hand or by use of templates, and does detail or background work on illustrations which have been prepared by an illustrator of higher grade. When working with scientific subjects and technical equipment this Illustrator acquires basic knowledge of subject matter field and develops information about the field of work that will be illustrated. When working in the general fields of illustrating, someone in this position acquires necessary information about subject of the illustrations or applies general knowledge to the subject.

Education: None | Min. Years Experience: 0 | Experience/Education Substitution: 2

Job Description: The Illustrator II usually is assigned to projects involving several of the common art media such as pen-and-ink, pencil, tempera, wash, oils, and airbrush over a period of time. These projects require the Illustrator to be proficient in the use of these media and in executing acceptable drawings in many styles. Generally, Illustrator II executes drawings that have been conceived by others and presented in the form of rough sketches. This illustrator does not exercise an extensive knowledge of the subject matter involved when preparing medical, scientific or technical equipment illustrations, but does acquire information about the subject assigned to illustrate and develop a background of subject matter knowledge through carrying out these illustrating assignments. However, the kind of illustrating work assigned does not require an extensive prior knowledge about the subjects illustrated

Education: Associates | Min. Years Experience: 2 | Experience/Education Substitution: 4

Job Description: The projects to which the Illustrator III are assigned, usually involve several of the common art media (as in the case of Illustrator II), but the illustrations themselves require a higher degree of skill in the use of many of the media. This degree of skill is required for the following reasons: (a) the speed with which the illustration must be completed requires the ability to work quickly and competently in order to produce an acceptable finished product within the available time limit. (b) The illustration calls for the use of fine detail, special artistic effects, or an unusual use of the chosen medium or; (c) The method of reproduction, how the illustration will be used, or the information or artistic results desired, calls for exceptional care and skill in the use of the medium. The themes illustrated may be either concrete in nature or they may represent ideas and abstract concepts. The illustrations differ from those typical of Illustrator II in that they are expected to interpret the publications, chart, poster, or exhibit in which they appear, while Illustrator II presents factual, rather than interpretative material. Illustrator III is required to have knowledge of a specialized subject matter field such as medicine, science, or technical equipment, and will prepare illustrations that are designed to reproduce the appearance of specific medical or scientific specimens or of pieces of technical equipment.
