wtf.. are artists really that insufferable in your experience? Can they never have real friends?

this is why you're alone. You project your own malignancy at the intentions of strangers to justify to yourself why you don't make an effort. Nobody is trying to rip you off. Nobody is trying to use you. Particularly when you're some animu-drawing dingus that seeks out cancerous places like /ic/ to vent about your feelings. If you had value you probably wouldn't be here.

Point being that you're too pathetic to be rejecting possible relationships or friendships over a fear that someone may exploit you for their own gains. You have nothing to offer! Stop being paranoid!
>wtf.. are artists really that insufferable in your experience?
no you created a weird greentext strawman
> Can they never have real friends?
you might as well just ask "can I never have real friends?" And the answer is "probably not" when you go around imagining that everyone is as malignant and cynical as you've allowed yourself to become.

I don't know what you did to get that warped of a vision of the craft but you're wrong. My dad is (was? he's at the end of his career) a pretty successful artfag for most of his life and pretty much all the friends he met, he did it through his work. When you work for theaters and operas, you do so in tandem with lighting designers, stage directors, actors,... Same shit when working in an animation studio for example, you gotta meet sound designers, directors, work with other animators,... Imagine freelancing for a vidya, you're probably to get in touch with a person or two for that.
In any project requiring you, the artfag, you're going to group up with other creatively minded people to work with and befriend, even if they don't have the exact same job as you.

It's not about where you're working, it's about being social. >>3687534 is probably right.

I have about a decade of experience working in the video production industry. Worked on a few tv shows, 3 low budget films, 1 $50 million dollar film, and a ton of industrials and training videos and stuff. I've worked in production (as a PA, AP, 2nd AD, assistant production office coordinator), art department (set dresser, props, construction, art director), I've been on camera teams pulling focus, I ran craft services on a feature, I've done assistant sound, assistant editing, I've been talent, i've done casting, budgeting, scheduling, and essentially have practical experience in every aspect of production. I've interacted with plenty of artsy production types.

Point is that irl there's no time or reason for people to be at each other's throats. They're all working together to achieve a common goal. Everyone's job is easier when everyone is working else is doing their job well.

And even when it comes to being a self-employed artist that produces your own shit, other than a few of the autists on /ic/, my real life experiences with other artists have always been positive and encouraging. They're fellow travelers. not to mention that art types are the generally pretty flaky and aloof and positive. The "cuttthroat" personality types are generally going to be drawn to "cuttthroat" industries.

>>3687561
/ic/ is toxic. It's full of toxic people that project a lot of bullshit that hide behind anonymity as an excuse to "be themselves" aka express and externalize their faggy feelings at strangers. not really a decent friendfinder.

>>3687463
people project their own worldview onto others. Malignant narcissist types always assume that everyone else is as shitty as them.

no wonder Roxanne got discarded, some retard forgot to scrub the set floor each morning. With work such as yours nobody in their right mind would put you in a "creative" position of any kind, and we're even ignoring the whole autism surrounding you jimmie.

lul tards, be friends with 3D and VFX artists.
They're equally disconnected from the world, totally into what you're doing and get your lifestyle but won't be cucks about not knowing how to draw.

They can have friends, how ever they usually expect their friends to make an effort to maintain the friendship, artists are usually very independent individuals and are too busy working on their craft.

Another thing too, theey dont really need friends, but will make some in life, mostly withh people who are not artists. They are loyal friends and respectful.

If you ever make a friend with an artist, treat them nice and you will forever have their hospitality and it will be the greatest friendship ever

[Anonymous No.3687735]

>>3687332
It's not that artists are cutthroat and want to extract value from you, the issue is that they're all already making an effort to maintain their own network of friends and acquaintances on top of being busy with art. so if you don't push through, they'll never notice you and you'll never make friends. Sure, some people only care about how much value you can provide and how much exposure they can get out of you, and it really sucks when that's the case, but I don't think it's the standard. Most of the time it's an issue with yourself anon, not everyone else.
