>>7203776>This is literally the most unreliable thing though, given the volatile, changing social media algorithms and the quickly turning tide of public opinion.This is also true for the list you made above, nothing stays still.>Are there really no companies who are hiring anime artists?Learning other styles and theories of art does NOT cancel your knowledge anime style, wider set of knowledge is more than separated and compartmentalized things. The more you know the more you will be able to do. Besides "style" is a fluid thing it constantly changes as you progress and learn which will inevitably happen if you put the time in.>games>feng zhu style concept art onlyTry Indie game companies? It might be less secure and lower wage but competition is also far less frantic and have a wide variety of styles available.
Are you asking or dictating? Because you're wrong/ignorant about most of those. And you're assuming you can only stick with american productions/industries for some reason. Anyway this is likely just a thread made to complain and I doubt you even draw at all.
>>7203776I'm not that knowledgeable but I'm pretty sure you can just go to France if you want to make comics.
>>7203776If you are a good marketable artist, then you can draw in different styles.
>>7203776bro you literally picked a style that millions of chinks can do better than you, and the one that AI excels at.#1 rule of marketing is that being first is more important than being best, and you will never be the best when you're competing with insectoids that have been drawing your style every day for 12 hours a day since age 5. your first career option as an anime artist (assuming you are good) is to grift to other anime artists and teach them epic japanese anime vtuber illustration secrets or whatever, but naoki saito has already taken up that niche for the most part so you have to compete with him.your second one is learning to make vtuber models, but considering you chose a style literally designed to be easy and fast to churn out i doubt you have the attention span to learn that.
It always seemed that the Comics Code and Hays Code's effect on american media and culture are overplayed. Sure, shit got worse because of it but american animation and comics weren't really that great when compared to what Europe and Japan were doing at the time. Not to mention pretty much every artistic breakthrough in the history of american media seemingly comes from a foreigner or someone heavily influenced by foreign stuff.If I had to guess, the decline in quality for comics and cartoons has less to do with the law or public outcries and more with stagnation caused by america's isolationism making them lag behind artistically to the rest of the world.
>>7203826The Code amplified isolationism. American comics were very healthy before the Code, in terms of diversity of genres and just raw quality in general. Putting the Code in place wasn't just a matter of content. EC Comics had a system in place where creators would receive better page rates and would be allowed to be known to the public, with an entire page dedicated to talk about them in every issue. This meant people working for EC would make 4x the effort they'd give to any other company. However, as we know, the Code was very directly tailored to ban comics EC was making in particular, like a real "fuck you in particular" moment, and the Code just so happened to be made out of DC, Archie and the company that would later become Marvel. In the end, it's just another case of american retardation disguised as "freedom", kind of like how the car industry lobbied for the destruction of America's public transportation because they wanted people to buy their product. When Marvel was thinking of creating a Vertigo-type line, I think it was shut down because Stan Lee thought comics were for kids only.
>>7203776>wahhhhhh major corporations won't hire me but they'll hire a black gay guy wahhhh what should I do ic????just get over it and kill yourself
>>7203776The anime industry hires foreigners so try that maybe?
>>7203776
>>7203776The Japanese love Disney, while you are copying animu, they are buying shit from the Florida rat.
>>7203776Go to Japan to look for work competing with millions of yellow people who draw that shit better than you.
>>7203776you excel at tracing 3d models and cut and pasting bug eye expressions? congrats. and you wonder why you cant get a job fucking faggot.
>>7203929>>7203931>>7203934>>7203950I can't imagine that people who post this type of shitpost even draw or paint. Probably just tourists who come here for the free porn
>>7203973The only useless person who doesn't draw here is you, that's why you post shit
>>7203977not op, so your ad hominem missed its mark
>>7203776character art and loading screens for gacha games, it's common for some studios to hire artists outside of their art team as freelancers to draw some of the illustrations and I heard they pay well. the issue is having to learn moon/gook/chinkrunes on top of art to get in touch with them in the first place
>>7203982Ad hominem???At what point did I discredit your opinion based on your condition??? don't use words if you don't know their meaning
>>7203776>animation industry>AmericansThat's your problem OP I'm not a Burguerman (I thank God everyday for that) and I'm a full time 2d animator drawing anime art style. I got hired on Xitter, I just had to put "アニメーター" on my bio and a production assistant direct messaged me. the pay isn't that bad either.

>>7205696What trade can I learn that won't take years before I start getting paid and won't be invalidated by AI and robots? I'm thinking HVAC, electrician or carpentry but dunno if they pay well enough
>>7203776>animation industry and comicsforget about it, japs work for 600dollars/month and most of it is outsourced SEA, and china. If you would start out as a BG artist, color filler, assistant etc its even worse. If you are a westerner tho, finding a job in the US claim you are gay and retarded and you can sue the company for racism if they don't hire you.dead, dont bother, even worse outsourcing than anime. Look at invincible s2 at what state is in it. Unless you are some extremely passionate and a way above everyone else, as you have some super appealing style like Smiling friends' Zach and Cusack or Hazbin Hotel's Vivziepop. >gameslmao, massive layoffs are already happening in the industry as blackrock money dried up, MAYBE if you learn blender. The rest is indie-scamshit which is more unstable to commission hunting.>art teachingOn par with being an english and history teacher. >fine artshave fun earning 30 dollars at a theme park a month.>Is commissioning, convention hopping, and hentai the only thing anime artists can do? This is literally the most unreliable thing though, given the volatile, changing social media algorithms and the quickly turning tide of public opinion. Are there really no companies who are hiring anime artists?Yes congrats, you realized the grim reality as most artists are e-beggars with the "my mom is in the hospital/my dog died sub to my patreon" types. You work 10+ hours a day, +weekends too just to barely be able to pay bills.Companies are hiring, although you are probably not on that level. The company has to approach you, not the other way around. If you want to remain SFW you need Mika Pikazo levels of appeal, if you are NSFW you'll need to draw shit you didn't even dare to dream about.Also this >>7205696 is literally the best advice you'll ever see in any art thread. Get into trades, and creative stuff be a hobby. Do not fall for the STEM meme either.
>>7203931No they don't lmao. They love sanrio and their own shit, nobody gives a shit about DEIsney outside of nigmerica
>>7203776Can I imitate this look digitally?

>>7203776>What career path exists for someone who excels at the anime-aesthetic art style?Serial RapistI'm dead serious
>>7206365how does one put bread on the table by raping?
>>7206270Nah, sadly perfect imitation of ink-wash type stuff is one of digital's weaknesses.If it was a monochrome image (as it would be if it were in, say, his manga) then it would just be a matter of drawing skill.
>>7206376well are you raping hard or hardly raping?rape ain't easy but it's honest hard work
>>7206150Japan is the second country where Disney is most popular and merchandising is consumed, far from Paris, Disney in Japan is the one that raises the most money with visits and it only uses the license, I mean, that's it, throw yourself a hole, Japanese mangakas like Ozamu Tezuka were fans of the Florida Rat and tried to replicate the classic Disney animation through the oldest anime, and that for me Disney is shit but it doesn't mean that what the other person said not is true, Disney is too much popular in Japan.
>>7203776>What career path exists for someone who excels at the anime-aesthetic art style?Professional pedophile perv

My high school art teacher sucked at art and lowkey would actively sabotage the very talented students. Hell, you even got professors doing this shit in colleges. Teaching art is where the people who sucked and couldn't make it go to shit on those who are still unbroken
>>7209056how do you become an art professor?
>>7209058Depends on the prestige of the school. Most community colleges will take someone with just a bachelor's and a decent portfolio (this is also where a lot of the crabfessors would reside). Most unis will require a master's or even a doctorates with the quality of both your teaching and art portfolio dictating dictating the kind of unis you can enter into. Your best bet is a community college if you're trying to do this as becoming a professor at a uni then earning your tenure is a goal for many people because it's an easy guaranteed paycheck until you retire, so it can get pretty competitive.
>>7209086>will require a master's or even a doctorates with the quality of both your teaching and art portfolio dictating dictating the kind of unis you can enter into.Not only art portfolio, some unis will require you to be an active artist, as in actually selling your art in galleries etc., if you do not have the status you can only apply for the assistant position.it's much simpler if you want to be say art teacher in highschool or gradeschool.
>>7203776Or you forge your own path and keep doing things you're passionate about until one of them takes off. It may take a decade and multiple failures and lots of networking and if that's too stressful to go through, yeah, you might want to just accommodate your skills to what the market is asking for.
>>7209086can one become an art prof with a stem bachelors, or do i need a bfa?
>>7203776Imagine if she farted while standing like that then her hair would smell like her ass hahaha that’d be so weird.
>>7212607she's a minor, you disgusting fuck
>>7203776Fine arts is unironically a filter. Non-nepo babies who make it in the Fine Arts are savvy businesspeople and networkers in addition to being competent artists
>>7203776Make your own cartoon and post it on YouTube This is of course, assuming you are good
