Great news! AAA game studio wants to pay you $1 million to be the lead artist on the next (insert favorite game franchise) sequel!
Scammers suck and they can be really good at targeting vulnerability. Artists work so hard to build a great portfolio - to reach that professional, hirable threshold. So when that golden email finally shows up, the excitement and validation that we feel can make us blind to red flags.
In this video, I'm joined by must-subscribe art YouTuber @KelseyRodriguez to discuss red flags to watch out for and strategies to protect yourself from scams targeting concept artists. We'll share our own war stories and offer practical advice that could save you some headaches in your career.
Don't miss out on this important discussion - join us for a short video that includes a fun painting taking shape in the background. And if you want to stay up-to-date on the latest tips and tricks for concept artists, be sure to subscribe to our channel and hit the notification bell.
