It would be great if you make a part 3 of this series, but with examples. How to present your models, give credits to the concept artist, what to show (and what not to show) examples of "students vs professionals". Would help extremely much. Thank you again for making these amazing videos, and the things you say are so so helpful. Keep up the great content.
20:25 I'm at that part of my current sculpt. Sometimes finding those inaccuracies and subtle details to add and where to point the viewers eye adds so much time. However, I agree it is critical because that is what adds the realism to a creature and suspends audience disbelief.
Thx for being brutaly honest. I like that u say u need to have props aswell. Ive been thinking about that cause nobody will let a intern or junior do a lot or any characters its like u said u do modeling. And im fine with doing props in the beginning and work my way to characters. Ill just make characters on the side thn. I really enjoyed this video. Thx guys!
maybe mount the mic stands to the back of the table? so the clamps aren’t front and center :) or get the mics in hand and nix the table altogether! love u guys
Great points ✌🏻 Living in iran it's actually really hard to even get paid cause of sanctions, i can't even get a bank account outside iran. I even lost a really good freelance job cause internet went down for a week+ when protests began. Will move out of here next year but it's been a pain for the past years working like this and losing really good opportunities cause of things i can't control.
Mm, if we do a 3D character via someone's concept or from a game/film, will it be deemed fanart (copyright,etc)? If we ask for permission from them, does that work?
So i dont know if its just a lack of experience but whenever i want to see what i am really capable off i search already made like really simple concept art. and when i try making it it just doesnt look like the concept art at all. but when i come up whit something of my own i can make it. so is this just a lack of experience?
Hello. I have a question. So I really hoping to get into film industry as a modeller. However there’s much less opportunities in the film industry than in games. If I couldn’t find a job in films right away, do you think I should get in a game company first? Or should I keep improving my portfolio and wait for the opportunity? Finance is not a issue
Nice video. Because of you two, I plan on taking Scott Eatons Anatomy for artists course this January. Cant. Wait. Also I'd love to have you two mentor me. Not sure the cost but I'll cut out whatever I need to in order to afford it.
I notice that like 95% of all characters on Artstation are rendered in a proper renderer, as opposed to Marmoset toolbag. For people wanting to get into game industry should they have only characters rendered in a proper renderer (which of course wil make the character look ten times better) or Marmoset?
How do you guys feel about making a realistic version of a cartoon concept? Like if I did a realistic version of a Ben 10 Cartoon character (which I did) and it looks really good w the same overall silhouette, could this work as a portfolio piece?
Good Stuff! But are your episodes on all major podcast services though? I only see 3 older episodes on your Pocket Casts site.. Guess it's not major then? :p
Hey guys, can I ask something is there high opportunities in the industry for artists based in africa? There is a community called cgafrica.com but there are not much senior artists from what i see it is a one artist from weta digital sydney kimbo. If you can please do an video that covers on that. Thanks.
Hi, I love your channel and it has taught me so much. But there are a lot of areas that you don't really make videos on. Rigging and animation are good examples. I get that you guys were character artists and therefore don't know a lot on the subject. But could you then perhaps hire someone that does know a lot about the stuff. Someone like you who has also been in a professional production and knows how production is in those areas.
Err, did you just suggest they hire someone to teach you how to do something? :P. Roflrofl. Cmon guys, hire someone to teach me what I want to know! I'm just joking around. Dont take offense to this, but that's how i heard it in my head.
@@adam551982 I just stated that there are subjects that they don't touch on. Such as rigging. And if they don't know much about those things they could hire someone who does. I just think it would make the channel even better than it already is :)
Support them by purchasing their merch and they might consider investing money into hiring more teachers. Gotta appreciate this helpful and valuable information they share for free!
When you're talking about digital sculpting and form and taking classes, you're saying a word, "cro-key?" Can you tell me what the real word is? Lol. Google isn't helping.
Thank you for the advices ! I watched all of your tutorial videos and not only. You helped me a lot with learning software.Some day I hope I will make it into Industry . A link to my ArtStation account : www.artstation.com/andreiandrei1
36 minutes of 2 guys talking ..not very interesting or compelling. Consider this 1..You are communicating on a visual platform (RUclips) and 2. Your target audience are visual artist..who respond more to visual info than audio info. It would have made more sense if you showed examples of Character art or Character Artist or some Portfolios of some character artist, etc..or anything more visually engaging than 2 guys talking for 36 minutes
@@Felix-os5hf Podcast are for engaging ideas and discussion..and not meant to be visual....art is a visual media. Podcast has it s place..saying I would hate podcast is an ignorant statement its like saying I hate pajamas because I don't wear them in public..I wear pajamas at home not in public..doesn't mean I hate them
@@Felix-os5hf You miss the point entirely....Art is visual..talking is audio. If you're talking about art or anything visual you should have visuals to support it. Imagine a film critic talking about a film without showing visual references, or a news anchor talking about the news event without showing clips of the event. talking about art with no visuals....is a no brainer..I need a hug like you need a brain THINK
@@rodcav3There is some irony in your demeaning comment about me in that you seem to need every sense to be stimulated in order to take in information. All the things you listed regularly exist in the former over latter, where I'm from anyway. I dont want to have an argument, but it sounds like you want to, which I think maybe affects your judgement. Try to chill out a bit! After all this is just a youtube video, you take from it what you want, it's not forced upon you. :)

What’s the best way to get concept art
For someone (me) not in a school or program
Thanks

HAHA! I love you guys!
For the record: The art-directors stated the similarity in style as a factor in the first job-interview. No mystery about it.
Well there you go 😁

XD In the first minute . I feel like Henning is a robot . Sitting and staring at Morten 😂😂
Great, as usual. Can you do one for artists who are not interested in characters? Hard surface, weapon artists, etc.?
Thanks guys, this is very informative. Keep going with more tutorials and other guidelines too....
Great talk! I would love to see one about environment art portfolio maybe with a guest?
I just realised I watched this video 3 years ago or so when I started with 3D and I can say you were right 🙆
lol, that mike setup 😂 A pair of lavalier mike could be more presentation friendly.
maybe mount the mic stands to the back of the table? so the clamps aren’t front and center :) or get the mics in hand and nix the table altogether! love u guys
I would love to see a video on creating procedural textures!
Please can you elaborate the whole ideal procedure from learning art fundamentals like drawing, sketching, painting to 3d character artist? Please
Can you guys do a video for 3D generalist portfolio
Hah, I feel so called out by this video. I'll definitely have to join the discord though. It's difficult finding people
Great points ✌🏻

YEEEAH! I was also looking for it!
its on their website as well.

For games, present it in a real time engine that would reflect the actual have model. Marmoset is you're best bet
Awesome info.
anyone have link to the discord mentioned in the video????
An old man sitting would make a great attribution
Great work, helped a lot
I have misssd it but how many characters should you put in your portfolio?
3-4 is a good amount. Make sure they are varied and of excellent quality. Dont rush them.
How do you guys feel about making a realistic version of a cartoon concept? Like if I did a realistic version of a Ben 10 Cartoon character (which I did) and it looks really good w the same overall silhouette, could this work as a portfolio piece?
where that discord channel at? I don't see any links homie :)
They didn't link the discord.
0:53 why you still don't work as character artists?
We took FlippedNormals fulltime instead :)
@@FlippedNormals I know but why?
Good Stuff! But are your episodes on all major podcast services though? I only see 3 older episodes on your Pocket Casts site.. Guess it's not major then? :p

Just use coasters for the mic clamp
When is portfolio series??
Its recorded - coming out in the coming months.
@@FlippedNormals Tq for the reply coz i gave my artstation link I'm waiting to see what u think about it .😄
Hey what is the Flipped Normals Discord? I couldn't find it just by typing "Flipped Normals"

Croquis drawing is quick and sketchy drawing of a live model. Gesture drawing. I think that’s what they’re talking about.
