You'd probably only get the fun pre-production stuff, right?

11 Feb 23:56

Finnjamin

Yeah, that's what he means. I wonder, if you have a portfolio of just beautiful fantasy/sci-fi landscapes and stuff, would you still risk being hired for dogwork?

For example, beauttfully finished artworks are for presentation/promotion. Dogwork is usually line, block-ins or draft speeds for enviros.

Exactly Finn, the stars you have mentioned are there for the pitching phase.

Isn't kekai still working in bungie?

11 Feb 20:44

Finnjamin

Destiny is an excellent example of that, Bungie commissioned paintings from Kekai Kotaki and Jaime Jones to provide inspiration to their in-house artists.

11 Feb 20:43

Finnjamin

The beautiful artworks most often don't come from a studio at all, but are rather created by freelancers hired to boost morale at the beginning of the project.

11 Feb 20:41

Finnjamin

Yeah, Feng Zhu says that even with a diverse portfolio the new hires on a studio concept art team are going to be doing a lot of three-quarter views and line drawings, until they become a senior artist I guess.

You're essentially a tool ina production line. Shit will get old real quick. Most here I'd imagine would ideally like to create their own universes

11 Feb 20:19

Nous

Production art is the business standard afterall. Yet I'm questionin concept art as a career path.

I should start doing a little bit of spitpainting, not so much to learn how to be fast, but how to be efficent.

11 Feb 11:49

Nous

I mean if you're just trying to break in as a junior artist that's another story.

11 Feb 11:48

Nous

Yeah but those favorite have probably working for years to build that

11 Feb 11:37

futurespaceghost
