If you don't know the right people it's not even worth trying

>>4214690
I'll get to know them, i'm sure they're mostly a friendly lot. And get to make art together, win win.

Are you ACTUALLY retarded?

What's with this shitty Joker drawing I keep seeing? Is this the new forced meme?

I want to work in the film industry - namely Hollywood and go all the way - Fashion design, Storyboarding, character design - the whole bit, so yes the move is worth it and required.

Just like locals from Chicago or Ohio move to LA to go where the work is.

>>4214774
It's my greatest most bestest work of art.

>>4214938
Ok work is one thing but have you heard of the living conditions there? Bruh. You'd be surprised at how much you can do remotely. I make storyboards and character design from home and I work for agencies from across the globe. People seriously need to drop the idea that you need to relocate to get every job, especially in IT and design. It's awful for the environment, living conditions inside cities and your mental health.
>>4214940
You're gonna have to come up with something more original than that to make it in LA or anywhere at all

>>4214949
These were a joke - my art, but a 50% capactiy.

My mentality where i am is causing decay, i get the world is all digital and convienient, but some artists grow and become better by getting out from their hometowns/countries, exploring, creating, meeting new people, having goals, working in film etc. I'd rather go somewhere and fail rather than sit on 4chan saying I am doing something and sending a few TIFFs to employers getting paid a little each year.

>living conditions there?
Do you mean LA - Smog, overpopulation, homelessness..immigrants?? - or USA in general ??

Isn't it mean't to be one of the best countries in the world??

>>4215013
Noo it's terrible, I'm not even gonna elaborate. By all rankings Australia is one of the best places to live in the world, not to mention it has the wealthiest citizens (after the mini countries).
>>4215010
Personally I developed the most as an artist once I finally settled at home. I used to travel, go on scholarships, work in foreign studios... I mean do that, I definitely recommend it for personal growth, but in the end it's just exhausting and takes your mind away from improving at your craft.

>>4214938
The move is not required you retard

>>4215013>>4215010

For the love of God f you move to the US, move to a small cozy rural town, not a city, cities are dogshit

>>4214697
You're so out of touch, and I mean that gently. This isn't an insult, just a statement. I think maybe you should do some more research on this and learn about networking. It's not about what you guys can accomplish together. You're not buddies. It's about what you can do for them, and what they can do for you is hooking you up with a job.

Obviously not op, but how hard is it to get an art related job? I really would want one, because it would allow me to work from home, yet from what I hear it's a nightmare where you have to suck everyone off.

>>4215256
No one moves to the US for thier profession, more opportunities? Hmmm

>>4216345
Not for fucking illustration you God damn fucking moron, you have a fucking computer, use the internet for more than porn and shit posting, Jesus Christ.

>>4214685
Do your own thing. Make your own comic. Create your own portfolio. Illustrate your own book. Hell, release an art book online. Sell pron. You don't need a boss in the art field when the internet exist, unless you want to waddle around with the big name jews.

if you like your police states and extortionate electronics costs, how little anyone cares about providing decent public transport to the main cities where all the jobs are, resulting in crazy traffic and longer than necessary car trips.

>>4216488
And bringing in 100,000 3rd world immigrants per year.

I see, just illustrators do not go to America for work is what you are saying?-- Illustrators work on computers?, not with pencils, ink, paint, canvas etc?
Illustrators don't paint scenery at the location anymore, according to you, on 4chan - everyone should experience their life from their computer and sit in their room.

Those matte painters for movie sets though, they are allowed to move according to you.

God forbid one of these crazy artist folk go out and travel 1000's of miles, paint portraits and then happen on a new life they never imagined, even one without art in it anymore.

Can see why you're so angry.

These aren't very good
might as well just become a graphic designer for the time being.
Also I doubt there really are so few job opportunities in aussieland
every book needs cover art and every brand needs a logo,
You can introduce your "exceptional" art skills into your designs to rise up the ranks if you want.

>>4216764
Could you post your very good as an example.
I'm yet to see anything on /ic/ considered 'very good'

>>4216673
Nigga you ain't painting landscapes, you said so yourself.

And no, dumb shit retard, pen and ink traditional work is scanned and sent digitally now too, you fucking moron.

Illustrators don't move anymore to do work, you're so good damn stupid

Everyone in the alternate stylization thread is better than you, arrogant faggot
