Im seriously pissed that such underrated channels arent in my feed. even when i search for them. Fantastic video!

You give a lot of incredibly practical and sensible advice which is surprisingly rare. Your personal story about your resilience is just so inspiring too. And in general- your “cutting straight to the chase” style of talking about what’s otherwise an overwhelming topic for those of us who are just starting out is immensely helpful. Thank you for making all the content you’ve already made and hope to see more from you in the future (even if it’s shorts or something)! Also- I have to eventually make a portfolio but I am still working on my technical skills. I’d love your perspective on: A- how to judge my own skills compared to the artists working at the studio I want to work at (especially if it’s all senior artists at a studio but with a slot open for someone Junior).. basically- how would I know I am ready? B- where to find the job postings without a network (or should I only target and cold call studios I like); And C- is it possible to start out as a freelancer instead and how would someone go about that (would a less targeted portfolio make more sense then)? Of course any and all advice is super appreciated on my end :)

Whats your Artstation account?

Tim please be a guest on my podcast!

Thank you so much for this video, this was exactly what I needed

Hi there Tim! I loved your video and im taking it super seriously trying to find some work. I wanted to ask, do you happen to know ways of finding studios/companies? I have a difficult time finding companies that catch my interest and I only know a handful. Was wondering if there were any resources or such. Also, whether or not they hiring juniors? I feel like nowadays, junior positions are completly gone and dont exist. Thanks in advance!

Love this video! Especially the part about accessing the portfolio easily for art directors. So many good takeaways

The biggest struggle is to identify companies that are suitable for me - like the ones which workflow and expectations align/match my original workflow and preferences as close as possible. Looking at company artworks on artstation does not show process clearly and often makes my judgement hazy.

Great content and a very clear explanation! Thank you, Tim!

Great video, Tim! really well explained :D

First like! Thanks Tim, great video!

thank you!

Straight to the point!👌

This video feels like a personal attack (in a good way ofc, I'm one of those failures of an artist) Would you be able to make a video about algorithms? I post to so many socials at so many different times and I feel like after 10+ years of doing this I will never get any public. I get shadowbanned, my posts have no interactions (even when I offer FREE RESOURCES for other artists to download and use) and I'm forced to work full time while chronically ill, this unsustainable to me. I need a part time job and to be able to rely on what I can do from home and at my rythm in order to study. I live in a very low income country and I don't even eat on the daily. If you have the chance to make a video on how to work with algorithms (instagram, facebook, threads, Twitter) what hashtags, what times to post, what content, anything, that would help me, and many of us, a lot, Twitter will hide your post if you use any term related to selling your work, Facebook will do this as well, if you post links too, it feels like the entire world is against poor people trying to eat 3 times a day, I'm losing my cr*p. Thanks for your time and work and I hope I'm not asking for a lot.

The math of how little commissions earn when compared to MINIMUM WAGE really put it all into perspective. Better to get a job so you can work on art when you can and not stress about the bills

Hi Tim, I'm an artist working at a small studio and wanting to achieve bigger goals and refining my fundamental techniques, I've been considering applying to art school but am afriad of the finnancial status becuase I aim to pay all tuition fee on my own, so I started from searching honesty and negative feedbacks about art school, hoping to know more sides of it and the reailty of it then came accross your channel. I watched the 40 minutes video on your website about how to apply job and signed for the free playbook just now, I simply can't believe the amount of valuable content you provided is free! I was very happy to receieve this on a regular Sunday evening while casually browsing the internet, thank you so much!

That ballshot was something I did not expect to see :D

Of all the portfolio videos that I saw, no one was so clear and straightforward like this. Also this approach of targeted portfolio makes things much easier when it comes to “what pieces to put”. Thank you for your amazing contribution to the community, surely I will contact you in the future for a mentorship (when I develop further my skills haha).

making targeted portfolio is like you have to be an Art Director yourself!

Fast, clear, actionable! Great content!

Great video Tim! :D Common/biggest questions I ask myself when applying: 1. When should I say I'm not interested in relocating? 2. At what point should I bring up the topic of rates, is it normal to negotiate rates for a junior/starting artist? 3. Should I send my CV apart from my portfolio? (imagine my previous work is not related to this industry) 4. What do you think about cover letters, are they important? What should you include in them? These are the most common ones I wonder about when applying. Thanks!

First! Great stuff tim and the editing is awesome too! Super excited to finish and polish my portfolio, looking forward to your next videos!
