My biggest motivation for retiring early is to get out of all of these damn meetings. What's yours?

Portfolio advice, from a lead who hires Concept Artists

(This was originally a twitter thread I wrote before the site self imolated, hense it's strange structure.) I wrote this after a weekend of portfolio reviews - 1. Like a maths exam, please please show your working. I want to see thumbs options, mid options and of course a final design.

2. Arrange your portfolio, I don't want to bounce about between subject matter and pipeline. Your portfolio's narrative should be as strong as your work... 3. Please make worlds that excite the viewer, make them want to go in and explore them, explain to them the interesting parts of the town, or the way the character's hat unfolds. How will this draw the viewer in? 4. As I've said before the majority of your project work is explanatory not mood, make sure your portfolio contains explanatory work. Explained here -

5. A lot of beautiful post apocolyptic paintings, , but 80% of realistic games and film, we just give the environment artists photo ref, they are capable artists in their own right. Different work in stylised where you do need to create rules for how things can be translated. 6. Production art contains call out sheets, material references and flat graphics. This doesn't have to be your final image, but it should support it.

7. Design characters on a swatch(es) of the environment they will be viewed in. Not on white. I make swatch backgrounds from screenshots, it avoids assumptions that damage readability. 8. Reverse of this, put people in your environments, show me the scale.

9. It's not a deal breaker for a review, but if you intend to get a job, please show me your work on a screen larger than a smartphone (print outs probably the cheapest option with the best battery life). 10. Please have your contact details clearly visible, and by that I mean email address, I will not pass your social media contact on, I cannot input your form into my tracking system. EMAIL ADDRESS emblazoned and bake it in, sometimes recruiters do funky stuff to pdfs

11. Your portfolio will never feel done, not to you anyway. You will have learnt from your latest pieces and want to apply it to older work. But we know art is a journey. Send your portfolio anyway. I've been in the industry 10+ years and my portfolio is still not 'finished'. 12. If you are applying to an environment centric Concept Art position then please vary your times of day! Golden hour is cool but show me some happy sunny days, looming overcast days, what about at night? Vary your weather too! Sunny snowy day? Rainy Spring day? Stormy night?

13. If you are applying for a character centric Concept Art role then please ensure your portfolio shows a variety of body types and ethnicities. 14. Designing characters for games? Please show back views and feet (!) Many potfolios contain only front views. This is a problem because:

You haven't shown you are considering the design from all angles.

In many games rear view is the main view.

Stop cropping feet.

15. If you are entry / graduating and looking at Portfolios to compare content and standard of yr own work too, look at hired grad/junior artists as opposed to seniors Seniors and leads often have old or personal work in their portfolio which isnt representative of the day job. 16a. Show clearly the intended use case for your Concept Art. Mention the game type in the description. Are these player character designs for a 3rd person adventure game? Then more back views please. Bonus points for diagetic ways of showing health / equipment / role etc.

16b. Are these designs for an FPS? Then really the player view of the gun needs to sell the player style/ choices, in an FPS your weapons are almost your character. Are these world designs? What's the view distance? For an RTS your shapes need to read from above & a distance. 16c. The lack of clarification means I am judging the design in isolation, which both harms the design (you might be considering the backview of a char as the main adventure character.) Or an NPC, their waist up expressions may be important for conveying exposition and mechanics.

16d. Concept art is not separate from gameplay, great concept art serves the game team before it is a good illustration.

17. Play games. A variety of games. Think about them. IMO to be a good concept artist you need to understand the common language & references used by your peers. Also understand the principles and common language your audience are used to. FPS design rules are v.diff from RTS.

18. There are many skills that are needed in concept art, please show them. For example: Graphic design - logos, liveries, typographic use etc. VFX concepts - Abilities, Ambience, motion concepts. Architectural knowledge - How buildings are built! & more but I'm out of space :O

If you're a potential student of museum-related fields, you might have gathered by now that it's a tough one. Questionable remuneration, fast-disappearing budgets, social invisibility, a limited number of permanent jobs, and ironically high barriers to entry are some of the main complaints. So if you know all this and you still want to do this because you love the field, then you deserve a star and a digital certificate (because there's no budget to print you a physical one and also #sustainability). We recognise your efforts and applaud your determination! 👏👏👏 And recommend you also get business and marketing skills because private practice may become necessary. . . . _______ Follow for more conservation memes. ❤️ . . . .

The Pros and Cons of Earning Money Through Social Media Posting

In today's digital age, social media has become an integral part of our lives. It is not only used for socializing but has also opened up new opportunities for people to earn money. Social media posting has become a popular way of earning money, especially for influencers and content creators. However, like any other profession, there are both pros and cons to earning money through social media posting.

Pros:

Flexibility: One of the biggest advantages of earning money through social media posting is the flexibility it provides. You can work from anywhere and at any time. This allows you to balance your work and personal life easily.

High earning potential: Social media influencers and content creators have a high earning potential. They can earn money through brand collaborations, sponsorships, and advertising. As your following grows, your earning potential increases.

Creative freedom: Social media posting allows you to express your creativity and showcase your skills to a larger audience. You have the freedom to create content that resonates with you and your audience.

Easy to start: Starting as a social media influencer or content creator is relatively easy. You can start by creating an account on your favorite platform and building your following. Once you have a significant following, you can start monetizing your content.

Cons:

Instability: Social media algorithms are constantly changing, and your income can be affected by these changes. Platforms like Instagram and YouTube are notorious for changing their algorithms, which can lead to a drop in engagement and income.

Oversaturation: Social media has become a crowded space, and it can be challenging to stand out from the competition. The market is oversaturated, and it can be difficult to gain a significant following and make a sustainable income.

Uncertain income: Unlike a traditional job, social media posting does not provide a stable income. Your income can vary depending on the brands you work with, the engagement you receive, and the platform's algorithm changes.

Time-consuming: Social media posting requires a significant amount of time and effort. You need to consistently create high-quality content, engage with your audience, and stay up-to-date with the latest trends.

In conclusion, earning money through social media posting has both advantages and disadvantages. It provides flexibility, high earning potential, and creative freedom, but it can also be unstable, oversaturated, uncertain, and time-consuming. If you are considering becoming a social media influencer or content creator, it is essential to weigh the pros and cons and determine if it is the right path for you.
