Where could I filter a list of small agencies? I would like to contact the small ones.

Thank you.. i feel less alone… i was studying postgraduate on animation and have a really big guilt and even being anxious of art too much… i thought i was defective..

Love this ,but what if your not very good at drawing ?

by the time i hit age 40 i got my first 2D animation job at a local business and I-just graduated college just a couple years ago. and my friend that I went to school with in animation mentor and other animation classes got her job at pixar. and shes only like 5 years younger than me. so its never too late. to be honest theres nothing to dress to impress . i'm content that I have a job. I even have younger friends in their early 20's getting animation jobs, but i dont mind. the older you get the more wiser you become. it's like looking my nieces and nephews when they come up to me they ask me how to do this for art. it made me have courage that there is hope as well.

I have the same past and experience as you. I was so scared of drawing for the past years and i'm in the process of quitting trying to fit in animation profession. It shook me to destruction and took me so much time to recover and grow into a new mentality. I'm still scared of my decision and my problems, and in dire need of confirmation of my new perceptions, and you did it. I love how this video is necessarily so long and so detail. You are a very wise and helpful female mentor in this field (sorry but i've been looking for one for so long and they're really rare, so i'm assuming you're one to myself because you did help a lot of people through this).

amazing video thank u so much for making this

May I know if contacting an art director when I have an (exclusive) agency is effective?

Do you chose the fonts to use in other covers? Where can I buy?

Thank you so much for sharing this! Very inspiring for me

i love this movie😊

thank you!

Great video! How much should someone budget for a 32 page book to be illustrated...approximately

"Let's destroy captalism" I laughed on that. Not today, I wanna be a rich artist

this is SO SO helpful! Underrated video - you explained everything so well! Thank you 🥹🫶🏼

I also dreamed of becoming an animator as a kid, especially when I went to high school because of the influence of anime (more specifically Naruto). I used to hate it, but when Shippuden came and he became more mature and inspirational, that's what inspired me to draw, and I thought I wanted to be in that industry too. But I lived in a place where 2D animations aren't much appreciated, and my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer instead. Because I hated both paths, I chose the architecture course instead. I thought, well, there's drawing too, so why not? But man, I only enjoyed it up to my third year. The fourth and fifth years were worse because we had to use AutoCAD and Revit for designing plans. We had to use software where you don't really get to draw. By then, I knew it was a mistake. I'd already given up on animation, so I tried to focus on my course instead. My field in architecture was more inclined to BIM modeling. While it's true that there is animation here, it's definitely not close to anime. After six years of working in the architecture industry, I never once loved doing it. I only did it because I needed income to support myself. Even after working for that long, I took the bar exam three times but never passed it. I also tried freelancing as a BIM modeler but got terminated three times. Now that I don't have a job, I'm currently at a loss. I'm trying to regain my skill for drawing since I stopped doing it after I graduated. I'm glad I stumbled upon your video. This really helped me realize that I'm not alone in this fight, along with the other commenters. I hope I will be able to do what I love too.

Oh wow, this has me thinking. I just got a contract job to make illustrations for a small gaming company, they only pay me once (and not a lot) and will own all the rights to my work…is this a bad deal?

Thanks now I'm stressed

Would LOVE a video on composition! 💖💖

Mabybe a video on choosinga color palette for a book...?

GREAT. 👍🏻 New subscriber here (new subscriber to your CZcams channel).

thank you so much 😍😍😍

one of my resolutions this year was to create a portfolio in children's book illustration. I watched a lot of videos on the topic and yours is the most insightful and detailed one so far! Thank you for your work!

Hello Anoosha, hope you're doing great ! Thank you so much for the video, the true meaning of SHOW don"t tell, i"ve taken a children book course and they don"t show it as efficiently as you did in this beautiful video Thank you !

The song is funny

Hello! Your work is always so lovely, would you be able to let us know what font size you choose for most of your 8.5x8.5 square books?

My library teacher read this to are class and I never thought the person who wrote this book was a CZcamsr

👏👏👏

You are very lovely

Do you suggest where to apply as children's book illustrator in india? Thanks 😊

THANKS

i love ---> The Art And Making Of The Peanuts Movie

Love it❤

Thank you so much I hope you have a video about how to talk to printing houses too! As a self-publishing writer and illustrator sometimes I do not have a publishing house before I have the book ready.

Thanks…great video:) A question I have is why did you need a photoshop file if you work and send your stuff in Procreate. Just curious, I haven’t used either program before. I do understand that Adobe anything is pretty involved.

Thank you for sharing, i really want to know that the size of the artboard you using on procreate is 6x9 inch at 300 DPI also?

as someone who struggles with generalized anxiety and dreads unpredictability, your in-depth style videos like this are SO comforting to watch. Makes me feel way less stressed about getting into illustration as a career 💗💗

i love the textures 🩶!!

What file format do you recommend to save the illustrations? I plan on upload it on canva to finish my book layout.

This was so helpful thank you so much!

Thank you Anoosha! This video is really informative

Do you have advice how to approach an AD at a convention?

Do you think it would be a problem to contact companies and agents with a website under the name of a one person studio I’m trying to open for myself rn instead of my full name?
