Which Art Career Path Will You Choose? - Proko

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Ever wondered if you have the personality and spirit to be an entrepreneur? In this clip from the Draftsmen Podcast, Marshall and Stan discuss some of the different career paths an artist can take and how you can tell which path might fit you best. Clip taken from How to Shape Your Art Career - Draftsmen S3E01. Full episode TheOndore: I disagree that artist and bussinessmen are connected the way Proko suggests. A bussinessman, I believe, is a solution solver always connected to having profits to cover your expenses in that business, at least. But an artist is much more complex and I don't see that all artists have the same core goal or solution to solve. Some might search for a solution of the problem of stylizing something, or find the solution of creating a new scene or world, or the hardest, I believe, find the solution of showing to others the images you have inside of your head exactly as they appear to you.

I like making decisions for my own projects but I hate making decisions when it's for someone else's project. If it's someone else's project, I usually get stuck in a loop of coming up with ideas and then discarding them, because I don't know if they match the expectations of that person. For my own projects, I just do what feels right to me and experiment with the ideas I have. Don't know if I can ever make money with my art but even if not, I will continue to draw, learn, and practice because I love to draw. I stopped drawing once because I thought I wasn't good enough and didn't even realize how miserable that made me feel until I started drawing again. I won't make that mistake ever again!

I know it's not directly related, but I keep stressing over whether it's a viable choice to self-teach drawing and become legit good at it, so I can start earning some form of income from it eventually
I understand it takes time and diligence, which is why I'm afraid the time and energy I'll invest in it won't pay off (I've done my research and know well how to go about teaching myself/practicing, I'm just unsure of committing to the endeavor -)

I-m really excited to have found this episode and know about the podcast; I-m gonna be checking it out tonight, because it seems like a lot of advice I could really use. However, I did NOT appreciate that guy insinuating that a good artist is a good capitalist/entrepreneur. I hear what he-s saying about problem solving but it felt so oversimplified. That one part was irritating.

UGG. I love this discussion. I went through so much of this last year and it was so worth it.
Entrepreneurship got me into solving problems more and more from Communication to Designing and setting structure to executing the vision.
All fun things to do in an entrepreneurial environment, but by yourself, I see how they can be overwhelming.

Skip to about 5: 50. Thought this video would talk more about art career options. It did not. That-s my bad. It Kinda started out eye rolling at students that aren-t comfortable with project design vs decision makers. and ends with saying that both instruction followers and decision makers are both perfectly valid art career paths.

Great talk. I think one thing the people could take in count is Prince career in the late 90's. He defined in one interview the success as create music and the people could be able to hear it. Even thought he was a musician, some advices from Prince, as a creator and enterpreneur, could be useful as a artist and enterpreneur.

honestly, thank you for this episode
as a young artist who likes to be given the decisions more than making them, it's really nice to hear from professionals that there's a place for me in the industry, even if I'm not an entrepreneur myself. thank you very much, this helped a lot with my anxiety

I feel like there was three job types that can actually be described here
Writer: Creative ideas/concepts
Director: Able to Organise the concept, resources and people to bring the idea to life
Artist: Able to Render and refine the idea
All Creative in their own right -
