11/01/25(Sat)08:37:40 No.1021226 It's terrible. Constant layoffs from studios, frozen hiring, low pay, seniors have a trouble finding a job just as much as entry level jobs. But entry level is non existent anymore, the only listings are for industry vets. There is no game industry in Europe. Most of the vets who started off in 1998 rushed into Valve and been sitting there for the past decade. The last thing we need is more indians who learned how to use blender. So Pajeet, you have to go pick up a wrench and learn a trade in India.

I'm neither a pajeet or aspiring 3D artist. I just had some interest in 3D graphics as a kid but pursued something else and got curious how my life could've turned out otherwise.

Well you did the right thing then, your life would be down in the shitter already if you chose a career in this industry. Atleast you're smarter than "i only want to do muh passion and what I love" on this board.

11/01/25(Sat)15:06:55 No.1021235 me nor almost any other students can't even find an internship in the domain, don't even want to think about actual career. maybe it's good if you do niche stuff or tech art for specific interactions, if the only thing you can do is pretty assets you're cooked. doesn't help that the industry is so saturated with game equivalent of slop. if you become niche indie dev it might be the best thing to do, and capitalize on merch. 3d alone can't get you far, especially as anon said entry level jobs are dead

Indie dev seems to be a very good path for all types of aspiring artists. Every other entertainment industry is dead.

>The project got cancelled or made 100 billion dollars in the first day.
you out of a job, see you just project for less pay and more work.
then they start crying no one wants to work.
3D like all art are a shit as a work place.
what you want is to find 1 really rich patron that likes your work, or 10000+ sucker playing 1$ a month.

my friend works as a 3d artist, most of his class in college failed to find any actual internships at real companies. apparently you used to be able to find internships and jobs pretty easily. now it's borderline impossible to find either. i chose a field where actual jobs exist and do 3D as a hobby.

They're often autistic and picked it up while 12. Well, that's more programming but happens with art as well from time to time.

yeah, no parental guide and that's 3 years of college down the shitter with a now useless degree you can work in retail with
baffles me they can't inform themselves what they're getting into. reddit is one place where those artists cry about being unemployed for >3 years

Arcane is the most expensive animated TV series ever
Pixar's released the two highest grossing animated films of all time
Sony pictures Imageworks is now a serious contender in the animated feature space
Fortiche is making a movie
The productions have never been bigger

I just binge watched over 100 20 minute episodes of high quality animation and there are probably at least 5 other shows that have over 100 eps each.
One or two animated pixar movies sound like a joke.

Because they're shit. Most people are shit. Wanting to be an artist doesn't make you good at it.

the workers in the animation industry are being aggressively exploited, race to the bottom, because "muh passion" and artists are generally super low IQ about business.
the higher ups get rich, the people who do the work get nothing but a tiny pay check then get fired when the project is done.

Depends on where your located.
If your in the USA, markets like
-Manufacturing
-Game Design
-Animation
are a lot less profitable than consumable services
-Neche Porn
-Personalized digital 3D products
-Online Advertising
