hey guys I got my newsletter working again, (the first link) sub there to get my brushes and tools for free.
3 Essential Elements from Video.
1.) Narrative- How should the work feel - funny? mysterious? Strike a cord. Think about this before you start, (key words : calmness, for example)
2.) Have a Story- Makes work more interesting, helps them to remember the piece more. A focal point, creates clarity as well. Mood initial sets up expectations, narrative elements build on this. Soft framing- showing a story without explaining everything. Hard framing- when you show/explain all things.
3.) Lighting- Ties mood and story with intent. Blue can be calm, red can be anger. Atmosphere. Direction of light can make a different feeling. Helps with emotion, guides the viewers eye. Separates average from great art. Creates a sense of balance.
MicroTip-
-Save special EFX till the end. Ex - Glows, rain, snow , lensflares
-Paint local colors - which tends to be in "Overcast" first gives flexibility to change the lighting easier to anything else. Example can make a new overlay layer, paint some orange for a sky, and mask out the areas you dont want lit. This also makes painting easier because you focus on one problem at a time, instead of all lighting at once.
Great video
same thing happened to me for the past year: waves of interviews about illustration jobs that went nowhere. I decided to find a day job in another field, just to pay the bills while maintaing my art skills just in case the sun rises again
yup. I recently started full time at my current day job while continuing to work on my art and portfolio on the side. I'm trying to see it as an opportunity to grow. Getting better at time management, work efficiency, and using 3D and other techniques to speed up the process so that I can make more with less time. Blender has really helped with that. I think the sun will rise again. But in the mean time, the best thing to do is to grind so that when it does come up, we are ready.
Would you happen to have an art Instagram? I'd love to give you a follow if you'd like that
hi tyler, sorry to hear about those interviews. I want you to know no matter who hires or doesn't hire you, you are a massive inspiration to me. Whenever i feel in doubt or worried about the future, your videos help me a ton. Not to mention, you sharing the less fun side makes you insanely relatable. Even though you don't know me directly i look up to you and i really see you as a mentor
If they didn't pick Tyler in those interviews, wtf am i doing here? I don't stand a chance.
its insanely competitive right now, these both were for very high positions like 6 figure contract type of big. i did the best i could. The funny thing is i didn't even apply, they sought me out and asked me to interview. and still didn't make it. ;/
@@TylerEdlin84 that's a bummer Tyler !... Can you give us, aspiring concept artists, some insight on the junior level type of jobs, from your own's and your peer network's experience in the industry? Are people being hired like before? Is AI replacing them already? Is it realistic to expect to be hired in a small to medium-sized studio without prior experience and shipped titles? I try to have a positive outlook on the matter and continue my portfolio building as usual, but I am really struggling with the uncertainty of the field and want to hear some pro opinions about the future prospects of the concept art industry, and if it is plausible for people to start from scratch, or whoever got in until now got in and that's it, it is incredibly unlikely to get a job from now on etc. I would really love to watch a video about this topic with you and maybe other youtube artists, (like Adam Duff for example). Sorry for spilling my guts here, i just for carried away :P
Keep in mind that it's not just a matter of being good or skilled enough, but what kind of art style the people hiring you are looking for.
You definitely don’t with that attitude
Great topic. I'm feeling the same. @@nickphilipps3900
Cmon, folks, we know how the algorithm works. Lets help out this man that has helped us countless times.
Just want to share with you something my mom always said to me whenever I felt lost. "No storm last for a hundred years" I kept that phrase close to my heart and repeat it whenever I struggle.
This are uncertain and turbulent times to be an artist, I can relate to many of your feelings, but for sure it will settle down in the meantime we can keep creating, keep learning and enjoying being an artist.
Btw I like that you narrate this video in a softer way than usual.
"that time it rained a million years" is the first thing that came to my mind 😂😭
[Sending virtual hugs] To the man who's given so much to so many, with unrelenting optimism and positivity all the way through, you deserve some time for yourself. And like you said, into each life, a little rain must fall; but it can't rain all the time ...
Damn! I had to keep checking the video to make sure this wasn't a timelapse, that's incredible you were able to do all this in less than 20 minutes. I also relate to what you're saying about the job market. I went from several cancelled projects in a row in 2019 to the same kind of strings of interviews and not getting hired in 2020. Then it was okay for a while but now I'm back looking for work and it's rough out there.
I keep trying to remember how bad it was just a couple years ago and then improved, so hopefully industries should come out of this slump they're in now, when companies realize they shouldn't have laid off so many people and budgets start opening up again.
Hope you find something soon, and thanks as always for all your helpful advice and tips!
I'm right there with you Tyler it's a tough time atm for sure, hang in there and remember to keep your spark alive 🙏💯 I say that because I lost mine for a few months after just recently barely missing out on my first job as a concept artist two rare opportunities in a row I was pretty crushed in my case as an aspiring artist 😅 But its reminded me how important it is to remember why we love what we do, especially in times like this. Take care 💯❤️
Hey men, you are a beast AT painting ! Don't loose confidence in yourself, you are super good AT what you are doing !
Wonderful painting!
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but somehow, you always make the right video at the right time.
I love art and I always will. Initially it started as a hobby, but after consistently creating and improving for the last six years, it's clear that art is not just a hobby for me, but an inherent part of my identity.
However, lately, I've begun questioning whether it's worth it to pursue it as a career, due to the negative developments you mentioned. Still, I'm also reminded that being an artist is more than just finding a job in it. Art is something I will always do, no matter what situation I'm find myself in.
As for a career, things don't look very well right now, as you mentioned. Still, dark ages do not last forever. Every storm and wildfire, no matter how long and destructive, will eventually pass. And when it settles, life eventually finds a way to recover and blossom. As another commenter here said, the sun will rise again and we'll find a way, as many before us have. Therefore, even while the storm keeps brewing, I will continue to create and be the best artist I can be. And when the sun rises again, I will be ready to take the next leap.
Thank you Tyler for another awesome video, as usual. :)
Thanks for sharing your story and your art, Tyler! I've been in a similar situation and it's very comforting and kind of scary at the same time to know I'm not alone in this.
Great stuff man, important message every artist should hear. Nice work too 😉
great to hear from you, been digging your content a lot lately, very inspirational.
@@TylerEdlin84 thanks man, means alot coming from you 🙏
I hope it'll work out soon for you. I learned a lot from you, and your attitude has always been one to look up to. I've been going through the same situation for a while, but it's hard to complain when others are going through the same, even people as well known & experienced as you.
im binge watching ur videos, soo goooood to listen
love this video! thank you for sharing
Unrelated to the content, but I really appreciate seeing you experimenting with and developing how you present these videos. I've learned a lot from that as well as from your art teaching, it's been great to see your journey. Hope you find your groove again soon
Your art's fantastic and a shine to my eyes bro! Congrats and thanks for sharing this.
nice and wonderful painting!
keep it up :) !
Thank you so much for the amazing tips Tyler and it's good to share your downs too, such an artist at your level, it's really motivating. 🙏
You are always an inspiration Tyler, hope we can learn more from your will and skill, and wish you luck and love to you and your family, keep the great videos!, do you have any brushes of your own to share?
The Creator has created a very special person: you.
Nice lighting method :) Its similar to Dice Tsutsumi/Nathan Fowkes method :). I like your tip about keeping it simple and local first, then adding light.
I really appreciated your insights! As the AI tech develops, I'm feeling an "excavation" into years of digital art practice being scooped away from me.. I'm impressed by the AI tech, but it hurts all the same.. When the tech and prompts can do exactly what we do as artists, we might find ourselves shutting our phones off, and going back to traditional mediums and trying to display our artwork in actual art galleries..
Thank you 🙏🏽🙇🏽
Thanks for valuable tips, Tyler. A question regarding the illustration work. How does one approach the imagery woven into the narrative? Like when the illustrations are in the body of the text and should accompany the storytelling. Should the artist omit the details already mentioned in the text, can he deviate from the story and what's the best way to draw illustrations, which go with the text without over-encumbering the reader's attention?
Hi there Tyler ! I hope you’re having an awesome day so far. I’ve been a fan of yours for a while now, and your paintings are amazing to watch. Which digital drawing app is your favorite to use when painting ?
i have only ever used photoshop so im not sure what im missing out on but it works for me, most of the time.
Ah that's cool, I've used Photoshop in the past, but I'm more comfortable with this Ipad app called Procreate nowadays.@@TylerEdlin84
Dude I just got fired from my internship!
This is an amazing experience
if someone as great as you already has trouble finding work in the industry...it makes me question wether or not I should try and pursue art as a career. I'm quite disheartened
Painting only with the 'local colour' and ignoring the lighting scenario seems like it would lead to drastically different results then having it in mind from the start. Wouldn't that mean if you paint a scene at night, you do the entire painting as if it was done at day and then apply filters over the top to change it to night? Does that actually work well? I've tried doing a similar thing a few times but the results have never been as good as figuring out shading colours from the start.
Yeah I do it for night scenes too works great
@@TylerEdlin84 I guess I would say then a video going more into detail on this would be helpful! I'd be interested at least.
What resolution is the tablet you are drawing on?
It’s a 2k one. I have a full review on the channel of it
u are fucking monster ty bro
my guy just painted "The Last Bastion" overwatch cinematic 😂
Make your own game studio. If no one will hire you, you can do it. Then you wont have to look for a job
Even Tyler can't get jobs? We're doomed.
There’s a lot of insanely skilled peeps out there all trying to land jobs. That and I’m not the best interviewee
i'm gonna keep it a 100, AI is not taking over anything, it's just a new program for non-artists to create art. i've used AI for over a month and that shit is not easy to use, produces bad artworks, doesn't do what you tell it to do etc and even if it was perfect you still would need to find a way to perfectly convey an image or thought in your head to an AI so that it understands exactly what you want but even then you'll get something you most likely didn't even describe 😂
ai is great but trying to use it for work or masterfully controlling is an unreasonable goal
Why are you not showing full screen?😡😠
When your zoomed in you tend to focus on the small details, you can tell he was zoomed out while painting, you can see some level adjustments and tools used.
showing step by step 😠
@TylerEdlin84 Hope you feel better man, you're an amazing artist and a massive inspiration to so many of us
