"Is Being a Generalist bad?" Feat. Hardy Fowler
Просмотров 1092 месяца назад
Should you generalize or specialize? Today, Hardy and I discuss this topic, and how specializing doesn't necessarily mean what you think it means. Hardy's Channel: youtube.com/@fowlerillus

    Working and talking about something aren't mutually exclusive. You can do both. You say it's a massive problem that affects many areas. So why (and how) would it not be a prominent topic of conversation? You say it has only substituted "crap jobs", which both isn't true, but also has no solidarity for the artists working those introductory "crap jobs". and finally.... you're talking about it too? You can choose to follow your own advice and just focus on your art projects as well.

      I respect your POV. My points were that the issue is universal, and yet artists are acting as if we are particularly hurt by it, when I would argue that the issue goes far beyond. The reason I'm talking about it is not to talk about AI itself, but the result of me seeing my art heroes arguing with each other over the issue. The arguments to me are much more demotivating than the original topic is.

      @@GarudaPSN Also another thing, I wasn't trying to be derogatory towards artists who haven't been able to get more "highly esteemed" art jobs or whatever. I'm in the same boat myself. I can't get hired by many companies either, so my best bet personally is collaboration through my own networking. I know not everyone has the same kinds of goals that I do either. I was just making a point that there's other very good (and less depressing) alternatives other than working on scammy crypto projects for what amounts to pennies.

    Your rant highlights the exact reason why I’m assuming the role that I am James. Of course, I have the responsibility to be there to answer people’s concerns and questions - so I need to stay active on the subject when people need answers. However, my end goal is to help the community out of the mud so our wheels can grip solid ground again and regain our positive momentum I also read a comment on my video from someone who said they relied on channels like mine to get away from drama - which reinforces my desire to start teaching some healthy online practices Like Jackson Galaxy says, if you want to stop your cat from clawing up the furniture then you need to offer them an alternative scratching post, you can’t just tell them to stop In order to pull people out of this hurtful mindset you need to latch on to a healthier community Thank you James, I’m 100% on your side and agree with you wholeheartedly ❤

Thanks so much for the comment, Adam! 😊

    Hardy's such a great resource, thanks for sharing this interview! I appreciated a lot of what you guys talked about, but also in particular bringing up Christopher Nolan and his comments on directing. I'm an actor in my local community theatre, training to be a director, and yeah. Dipping your hands a little bit in everything allows you to understand what it's like on the other side of the notebook and more holistically refine what your conversation will be about the subject you're tackling. It's so cool how in creative pursuits, nothing exists in a vacuum and different spheres of creativity can inform each other.

    Is game development hard like if you never done before? Do you have to learn a bunch of stuff like a bunch of 3D and programming? The only thing I can do is draw. Would it take like a really long time to learn from scratch?

    • @TheDedicatedGhost
      @TheDedicatedGhost 3 месяца назад

      I did game dev and 3D for a few years before I got into illustration. I definitely feel more capable now than I did back then though, because I've matured a lot as a creative since then. But yeah, it's a lot to learn, but you can use easier tools, especially early on. I used RPG Maker before learning Unity. 😊

      @@TheDedicatedGhost yeah I always found it interesting. I just started. You know learning how to draw probably last year. I'm pretty good at like figure drawing at this point, but there's so much to learn with drawing it's really overwhelming. You learn one thing and then you have to learn three other things. Once I'm a bit better at drawing, there's so many things I want to try like animation, making games. I guess it will be easier in the future with technology.

    What a relatable thing. I'm currently in game design class, and when the teachers forced me to write a game design document it squeezed out all my creative energy, and caused severe procrastination. Due to my overly negative reaction to the paperwork, my teachers immediately lost faith in me and joked that I was going to fail the semester. I rushed the game design document because I was extremely eager to just jump in and start making my game. And after three weeks of hard work I left my teachers in awe when I presented my game. Honestly, @#&%! The stupid paperwork and mandatory documentation. My game won the award of best game of the class, all because I took more time to polish instead of writing dev logs and collecting learning evidence.

      Man I hear so many horror stories from classes like that. This is why I believe online classes are the way to go in most cases. Way to go on persevering, despite so much friction from the people who were supposed to help you. ❤️

    @sirsasquatch4721 4 месяца назад

    Great video, keep up the passion! Wanted to mention that a game design document is not a must, especially if you're alone on the project. It is just very useful for onboarding and to answer any future question any other coworker might have. As long as you have your ideas flowing, especially when the concept is still cooking, I wouldn't even consider any documents, just notes to remember what interesting ideas you have. Make sure to have fun creating your games ;) Good luck!

    • @TheDedicatedGhost
      @TheDedicatedGhost 4 месяца назад

      Thank you! Yes and I think as time goes on, the project will become more organized with specific tasks to do. I think early on especially though, I'm fine with cutting something out if it isn't fitting, since I'm developing the first draft solo. 😁

    James, you just took that whole Hanako San concept to a much darker level - I LOVE how you reinterpreted it. And to comment on the theme of your video, I really appreciate what you said about "not dismissing things too quickly" - that's something I wish every aspiring artists remembered. We're often far too quick to just dismiss something the first (or 10th) time something doesn't work out. Just don't lose sight of why you chose to try that thing out in the first place, it MEANT something to you. Now look what you're doing - you literally OWN every medium you tackle, 2D and 3D. It's sick how capable you are in these very diverse mediums - a true creator through-and-through. A huge thanks for posting this.
