Chris, I think I am solely responsible for getting you to 4000 hrs. I have been letting your videos play while I am working in the studio. I really enjoy your style and humor. I’m also starting to use Fresco instead of Procreate. I would like more videos on using illustrations overlays in videos. With the animation and transparent background …bla bla.. thanks.
Your intrusive thoughts taking over thinking you’ll be fired at every turn is me LMAO so hard to push thru that but it’s comforting knowing it’s a very real feeling and in a lot of ways a sign that you’re making a good move in the long run
Thanks so much for pointing out the budget issue! A lot of neurodivergent people like me seem to have issues with setting proper prices and value to their work and getting panic attacks from this but your video gave me good ideas to approach this!
It WAS a good talk! I’ve watched like 5 of your videos in a row today. I have a successful ish art career, but I’m grappling with some major life changes and a move to a new continent, and am needing to revamp what I do as a result. Your videos have been so helpful. I feel a bit less lost now. Found you through the ADHD one and hyper focused from there :)
Good talk! I sold my first work to a small publisher recently and it was such a huge boost to my confidence. I appreciate talks like this because they're perfect for people who are just starting out 🙋🏾♀but who don't know what the next steps are and/or can't afford to shell out a bunch of $ for courses from licensing experts. I really appreciate it.
I wish there was like a handbook for artist about freelancing/commissions but it feels like a taboo subject to even talk about. Thank you for these tips!
It’s weird how secretive/confusing it can be. Lisa Congdon has a pretty great book called Art, Inc. that has a lot of great info. I think I have it linked in my Amazon shop below.
Since watching your videos from the beginning, I have attempted to do the daily drawing to keep myself motivated and improve some of my basic skills! I succeed most days, lol
Lol, wait, did it actually appear to make sense?? To be honest, I just wanted to know if it would actually work. It would have been nice if there was an actual reason. Maybe I should have been arguing with myself over pricing.
@@chris-piascik No, I thought it was a very clever way to slip in the "click the like button" message. The whole time I kept wondering if you're actually drawing something or just pretending for the shot. When you flipped it around it was like the punchline to a joke.
I have to thank Chris Do from the futur channel about pricing, I learned a whole lot from that channel and I agree, we have to ask what the budget is from the beginning to gauge if it’s even worth our time. Great content 👍🏽
Thanks! I think it’s less about finishing a drawing everyday, and more about trying to make time to draw even for just a couple minutes every day, or as many as you can.

Hah that’s amazing, thank you so much!!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️ that’s a great idea for the animations over video stuff. But briefly, I export png sequences and then import those into Final Cut Pro. That seems to be give the cleanest results.

Wow, thanks so much!
Same! 🙌

Thanks for watching!

Awesome! Glad my videos inspired you to make stuff!
Nice! I wondered where you were going with the split-screen couch thing.

@@marklsimonson Oh perfect! I didn't know if that was "enough". Glad it was!
For an artist trying to make it full time and trying to start a UA-cam channel these videos are super helpful! Thank you
That’s great to hear! Thank you!

Yessss! Was waiting on this!!! Thanks, Chris!
More to come! thxx!
It was a good talk.
🙏🙏🙏
Good Talk!
Thank you!
I Like question, "Do you have a budget" I would price too low myself I will try this method next time. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Chris, great info. Do you ever use the graphic artist guide book for reference on pricing?
Thanks! I used to reference it quite a bit, that said, it has pretty wild ranges. I think it can work as a starting point though.
Great talk.
Glad you liked it!
Yes😊Good talk
Haha thank you! 😁
Good advice 👌 what would you recommend if you can’t complete an artwork per day, keep up a regular cadence?
Thanks! I think it’s less about finishing a drawing everyday, and more about trying to make time to draw even for just a couple minutes every day, or as many as you can.
Great Video!
Thank you!!😎😎😎😎😎
Good talk
😎😎😎
Yeah, I absolutely despise talking about money with clients. I need an agent or something.
Yeah it’s no fun! It gets less awkward though… at least a little bit.

Amazing insights, @AlphaDTFPrint! 🚀 Are you into DTF printing for clothing? Share your thoughts and experiences! 👕🌈
Thanks, I do use some DTF for my shop. It can be great when the quality is up to par. I’ve found some isn’t great.
