What happened to all the concept art community that used to make content for youtube? I haven't seen anything for the past few years
AI fucked them up. why get feng to do it when AI can do the same art station slop faster and cheaper?
current youtube meta is making negative videos, aka TOP 10 THINGS YOU ARE DOING WRONG.For process videos, zoomzooms no longer have the patience to watch the whole thing, so nobody makes those anymore. Everything is shitty tiktok montages, or AI scammers doing the eraser grift.
Art Youtube died with KJG
>>7812692Speaking of art communitities, where did they go?
>>7812723No idea, in my mind they are still on Artstation since every other art website also allowed AI slop. Maybe Instagram and X
>>7812723They died, like all other communities. The internet is now all about selling yourself and your product, not bonding with others.
Concept artists did a pretty good job of flanderizing themselves out of relevance. No one really cares about them anymore, everyone moved on to animeslop.
>check if schoolism still a thing>it is>check youtube>not a single video over 10 minutes in a yearTiktok art brainrot videos took over hard I guess
>>7812759New call of duty looks sick
>>7812762 Yeah I just recently got back into the hobby and even 5 years ago shit wasn't THIS bad. I guess on the plus side it just makes me want to use books/courses and draw instead of fucking around on Youtube most of the day.
>>7812692they're still aroundhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeT5vP3hlrcbut concept art as a career is a hard sell for zoomers that are terrified of putting effort into anything, and would rather become 'independent creators' selling porn on patreon
>>7812723/ic/ could've been a community but too many bitter faggot kept letting their jealously get the better of them so they chased off anyone talented enough to make it.
>>7812762I kinda wish they resisted that shit. Still make long form videos, then just cut up some highlights for the algorithm and the retards.
>>7812692Social media and Patreon. Why put it out for free, when you can charge 10-20 a month from hundreds or thousands of people.
>>7812759and furries, and fan artists, and porn artists, and commissionslop artists, and patreonslop artists.
>>7812786My experience is that drawfags won't foster shit. They will treat a place as something to take from while the taking is good instead of putting in any work to make a community grow and last.
>>7812699All the student's artwork from feng's factory looks the same anyway.
>>7813261that's kinda the pointconcept art is not illustration, their portfolios just need to show that they've got enough fundies to follow whatever spec / vision the art director gives them, and iterate ideas based on it
>>7813269It's really not.The director doesn't do all the work, a lot of that gets offloaded to the seniors and even the low level guys. Having good fundies isn't good enough, you need to prove you have your own vision.
>>7813272feng was training junior artists about to enter the industry, their vision matters very little at that stage if you're working on the next aliens movie / game, the important part is that your props stick to the established design language, not whatever style you personally like
>>7813248They will treat /ic/ as a place to not put identifiable work in because the art industry is filled with people who care too much about what you do online
>>7813248>communityI come here specifically to not have my art recognized while getting crit, for me it is the main appeal of this placeWhy not go to LevelUP or something if you want people to give crits but be buddy buddy and recognize eachother
a lot of wrong information here, never change ic>t. senior concept artist
>>7812786the conceptart fellas from /ic/ early-mid 2010s have left, we're on discord servers now
>>7812692>What happened to all the concept art community that used to make content for youtube?Either they quit the concept art industry, lost their jobs, pivoted to other art industries or became indie creators.Anyone that went indie did the right thing, there's no need to fear the art industry using AI instead of hiring (you) when you hire yourself, just become an entrepreneur like most western animators in 2025, their industry collapsed in 2023 and never recovered since so the majority are jobless, working in food delivery, do freelance in the anime industry via Xitter or became Youtubers.
I kinda wish I had an artist to act as my mentor. I am too stupid to learn by reading and it's hard to practice when you don't know wtf to practice or what to pay attention to. I'd like for an artist to tell me things, to break down art from others that has caught my eye, and to draw in from of me how he would do XYZ thing that I would like to be able to do.>>7813503The RAM thing is making me wonder if AI will be stopped by physical scarcities.
>>7812692I guess the closest thing that fills that void is The Art Nest, but the guy just crits stuff and interviews people doesn't really paint anything ever.
there are no communities anymore, this is the last one unironically
>>7813503>picrelpeople are so retarded and easily inlfuenced by fearmongeringthe AI shit has already plateau'd and it's still at a point where you still need human artists to fix the slop IF they even decided to completely put their trust into it and probably alienate majority of their customers since most people hate AI from a moral standpointall of this will blow over and ai will end up another tool like photo bashing
>>7818500>the AI shit has already plateau'AI is exponental growth retard.
>>7824382NTA but how old are you?
>>7824382People say that shit every few months.It's always people who never keep up with AI and still think we are in the DallE2 era.
>>7812692Cat is out of the bag
>>7812714and the comics youtube community died with Ed Piskor
>>78243822 more exponential growths
>>7824472Ed was such a legend. I still rewatch the good Kartoonist Kayfabe vids multiple times rather than watching anything else on comics.
>>7824382>AI is exponental growthMore like Exponential cope.
>>78244512 years ago it wasn't able to perform certain tasks and now it can, 2 years from now it will be able to do what it can't now.
>>7824640Exponential hope! ... that I can eventually draw in peace when absolutely none of this and Elon is totally not a liar and tjis isn't just one big silicon valley money launderimg scheme.I can't wake up.
>>7824727Like what?
>>7812692concept art would be a viable career path if the internet didn't globalize everything and increased the ord force by a million times.
>>7824743Nigger go to rule 34 and look at how outclassed literally everyone who isn't at the top of their game is. That is probably 99.9999999%. You kinda lost. Like coomer-bux being muscled in on is NOT a good sign.
>>7824743animation, writing, and voice work
>>7824768On some level I still want to be one of those small groups out of highschool who rented out a fucking lot, the scrappy aesthetically naive concept art that was probably three notches above what you'd find in a spiral notebook. I want that.I was sold mad-maxian wasteland figures aura farming with staves not whatever the fuck this is.
>>7812692He seemed like a cool guy and obviously talented/educated but his English is terrible
>>7824783You're really an absolute bottom of the barell sub 90 iq third world brownoid aren't you?Coomer """artists""" were already a slop factory before AINo your 99999th pin up of Makima spreading her asshole with lighting and composition lifted off from someone else is not art you drooling gorilla nigger retard it's a product and not even one with any amount of loveNow the only difference is talentless trash like (You) won't be able to make money from art which is a good thing but certainly not the end for artists kek
>>7824788writing and voice work made ZERO progress since elevenlabs, what the fuck are you even talking about lmoa>animationthe coke commercial is just as shitty as the last one, the >>>/gif/ porn is just as shitty as when animation went publicI'm not even against ai on principle, I'm against it solely because it's unprecedented SHIT and it's turning the internet into a digital india whee every 60 iq subhuman dumps trash in the river and shits on the streetI wouldn't even be complaining if ai wasn't actively lowering my living standard
>>7825031it's pointless talking to them, the ai people believers are legit subhuman, they're the reason advertising is soulless slop now, why movies are soulless products, why every AAA game looks the fuckin same, they do not have a single shred of soul or originality buried within them, their minds are a wind tunnel, input goes in, input goes out largely unchanged without any intellectual parsingspiritually they are essentially the jeets of digital space and it is of utmost importance to make sure every single one of them ends up in a field or a warehouse and never even comes close to any creative-adjecent position of employment
>>7825031AI porn is honestly pretty good now. What you see on gif is just somehow the worst one you can find on the internet.The problem is that they are still limited to 5-10 second long videos or 10-15 for lower res. So you need to basicly take the last frame of one video and continue from there.
>>7825147Ok, so where is it? Link the best you've got.
>>7825130>why every AAA game looks the fuckin sameName 30
>>7825152No matter what i link you will just call it shit anyway.Go to civitai.com/videos sort by most collected all time or last year.
>>7825156Nigger, I'm not gonna sift through gifs of anime girls smiling at me to find what you claim exists, just link good porn if you have it
>>7825178If you sort by most collected it's literally just porn.
>>7825184no, it's anime girls and cute animals, I see no porn
>>7825187https://mega.nz/folder/jI0gyCYS#xjVkm3x5qK_qnE9GiLXsQwThese are the low res versions though
>>7825243I don't know, doesn't really seem better than the stuff I see on /gif/ eg picrel or https://i.4cdn.org/gif/1765689279907800.mp4 pretty generic and milquetoast, lacks the visceral feeling of the real thing or the atmosphere, storytelling and eroticism of 3D animation it's directly competing withliterally no reason to fap to it over those even ignoring the duration limit
>>7825280stop trying to make me like chocolate girls
