    since you talk in sections, it'd be super nice is you could add segments in the podcast videos so people could jump between topics❤

      Thanks for the suggestion!

    Love these interviews. So cool hearing from different artists. Their experiences doing cons are valuable because each talks about them from similar, yet different perspectives. Gerry at 18:28 drops a serious gold nugget here. Effective marketing of art, like great packaging or creating art with a special twist, can really help an artist stand out from everybody else.

      Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you got something out of it :)

    It's strange. I got started doing conventions in 2008, so videos like this to help people work in Artist's Alley were so scarce that they might as well be non-existent, if there were any at all. So I'm really glad to see content like this and people figuring out not only how to make a living doing conventions, but communicating ideas and conditions so that other people don't have to struggle and make bad mistakes trying to table. To hopefully that making a career in art isn't as boom or bust as it can be.
    It makes me wonder if I would have done better if I had videos like this when I started out. Or at least not crash out the way I did. Either way, I wish you stability and success.

      Thank you! When I first started a couple years ago, I felt the same way. I only knew of a small handful of Artist Alley vloggers and only a couple of them posted consistently, so it's nice to see how there's so much accessible content surrounding the topic.

    It’s crazy doing that many cons. I didn’t realize it at first but we were next to Gerry at Zenkaikon. Such an awesome guy

    I use a locking cash drawer but I attach it to the table legs with a steel cable and lock. I remove my cash at the end of a day and put it in a money pouch to transport it.

    • @Mualcaina
      @Mualcaina  8 месяцев назад +1

      Ooo I definitely didn’t think of that, it’s a good way to go about it if you’re using a cash drawer and want to keep your money safe 👀

    I love the interview series! It's really interesting and informative and Gerry's work is awesome! ❤I always wondered how proxies worked because I've started encountering more and more proxies running booths when I go to visit artists. I've also had random people cold e-mailing offering proxy services. 🤨 Can't wait for the next one!

    So far I’ve done one artist alley-and I have a couple more lined up this year-but this conversation seriously made me even more excited to continue pushing through! Like, I want to continue doing this. 🥹
