ASNAKFBA RACING TO GET THIS ONE DONE DEAR GOD THIS TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED. I'm so worried that there's a thousand mistakes in this video cause I didn't have time for a final review but whatever!! Just gotta roll with it!! D;
I really hope this was informative and helpful. I didn't know any field of illustration outside of children's books so I wanted to create this resource for everyone who's having doubts if they can make it!
Generally speaking, the more niche a market it, the more likely you can find work. Big fields that everyone wants to get into, like concept art, have WAY more competition. But don't get it twisted--every field has its own unique struggles. I didn't talk (much) about pay in this video because it can be very subjective and it's frequently changing. Do NOT go into a field just for the money!!! If you genuinely are interested in the subject and you have a knack for it then by all means, but don't kill yourself doing medical illustration if it'll make you quit being an artist.
Catch me on all my social media @BianaBova
See you in the next vid! Hopefully on Sunday! Cheers!~
this video is great . right before this came out i was literally doing research about art school and how to major in illustration. but i was worried about the job opportunities available from that major. so im definitely gonna buy that book. thanks for this
didi douglas how old are you? In a year I will be graduating high school, and I am in the same place as you!

But in reality getting a job from this major is very difficult. Please be realistic.
Thank you so much. I'm interested in art and illustration, but I never knew that there were so many markets for illustration. This was very helpful for me bc I'm going to be in my last year of high school.
I love illustration and coming up with magical looking people. I kinda wanna get into all of these plus animation because art excites me so much.
I’m interested (at the moment) in editorial, posters and CDs, comic, and scientific illustration.
i love how you made it so much easier for me. honestly when u spoke about botanical illustration because i am pretty much drawn to that.
first of all, how great is this comment section! And although I'm being repetitive I completly share the same felling of gratitude for this video!! so thank you! i just recently got into Art School and even tho is something I've always wanted the future can be scary.
Like how do you know!?? Your last two videos were like exactly what I needed, because I’m looking at colleges now and I’m kinda nervous and these videos really helped. Can you read my mind or something??!
LOL yes eUe. Nah but for real, whenever I'm wondering what video to make next I just think of my high school self and what she would need to hear. I'm always trying to help as best I can!
This video is phenomenal and super helpful! Thank you for making this! I want to major in Illustration and I really needed to hear this. Can’t thank you enough. 😁❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much - as i'm interested in pursuing illustration in university (i'm going to do uni visits next week), my parents are starting to question what i would do later on with an illustration degree so this really helps!
I love how artists can slam their art on literally anything and it will be beautiful ❤️
I’ve been looking for a video like this forever!!! This helped me so much!❤️😆😆
I'm considering this as one of my majors but had no clue what i would get a job in, thank you so much for making this video, definitely want to check out the book
This is so far the best video on Illustration. I'm planning to do my MA on Illustration. I already finished my bachelor on Graphic Design where I had Illustration, Calligraphy, Typography, Fine Arts courses. Illustration is the thing that falls between Graphic Design and Fine Arts.
This was amazingly helpful! Thank you for sharing!
Another great illustration of animation job is designing simulators. NASA and Boeing are two great ones with starting pay in the 90k range.
Thank you so much this makes me feel so much more confident in dedicating my highschool years to my portfolio
Hi from Brazil! I love this content, so helpful and a lot of fun listening you while i'm working as web designer! I'll soon be an illustrator haha :)
Thank you and god bless I wish you the best!
I'm super interested in botanical illustraton, surface design, and I wanna make my own stationary or something ☺️ food illustration is fun too!
omgg its really useful to me :) thank you for sharing this good information
Teagan White is amazing and really sweet, one of my favorite artists ever and i got to meet them
Cool video! Personally, I branched out from Graphic design to illustrate for informational/explainer videos. Occasionally I still do some editorial stuff too :)
Thanks a lot for the very informative video.
Just wanted to say that I really love your videos and this one in particular really helped boost my confidence that I will have all sorts of avenues to explore as an illistrator. I'm really excited to start applying to art colleges and this video really just confirmed that there is all sorts of work out there for artists. Now I just have to figure out what to do first! 😁 So, thank you, seriously your videos have been a big help going through the college application process and getting ready for art school, what to expect, and what I can do after!
//UGLY CRYING thank you so much, love!!! TUT
Ah!! Thank you! I'll definitely be in contact if I need anything. Keep making awesome videos cause I know that these will help generations of young artists to come!
This helped me so much ❤️❤️
Omg I got a tattoo apprenticeship and my mentor says I can specialize in manga and cartoons and I’m so excited
good job! I'm proud of you!
A very good video I study art in college and art , illustration is one of my interest I would love to do this as a career
My grandma was named Dixie and she was the most incredible, loving, giving women and never met a stranger. How does the name influence people?? Have youb ever been treated badly because of your name? It is the most beautiful name.
This video was sooo helpful. 😊

Great video, very informative
Thank You 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
What should i practice on even before art school just to make it easier in the future??
@Biana Bova
Ok, this made me curious. Are these different Types of Illustrations all grouped together? Is there just one Illustration Degree which incorporates all these Fields? I'm asking this because in my Country there are different Illustration Degrees depending on the kind of Field you want to enter. Maybe it's just because I'm not used to other systems, but I can't wrap my head around it.
For Example: Scientific Visualization includes the following Fields (Listet as shown in 50 Markets of Illustration, A Showcase of Contemporary Illustrators, By John Roman).
Archaeological Illustration
Botanical Illustration
Biological Illustration
Marine Biology Artist
Ornithological Illustration
Scientific Illustration
Technical Illustration
Animal Illustration
Info-Graphic Illustration
Courtroom Presentation Art
Documentary Illustration
Postage Stamp Illustration
Map Illustration
Architectural Illustration
A Student in this Degree will be provided Collaborations with Museums, Botanical Gardens, STEM Fields, Architects and other potential Clients. Students in other Degrees of Illustration will have different Collaboration-Partners. The Opportunities are specifically for them. Different Fields will also collaborate with each other.
Please excuse me for such a naive and long-winded Question, but the American Education System confuses me.
I wish you a happy Day,
Ale
Wolkenfeder No worries, that's a perfectly good question! As far as I know in the United States, you can't get a specific niche illustration degree like "scientific illustration" or "narrative illustration." Everyone graduates with the same degree but with specialized portfolios that suits the market they're interested in. Some people go the extra mile and get a double major or minor in a related field. For example, I knew quite a few people at UCONN who double majored in biology and illustration because they wanted to do different kinds of scientific illustration. Doing a double major like them makes sense if you're picking a field that is very knowledge heavy, but there's no need to do so if you're going for, say, card illustration.
But bottom line, unless your country/school offers it, do NOT feel like you need some special degree to work in one field of illustration. And damn, even if you did get a super specific major, there's nothing wrong with changing your mind and your portfolio later. There was some artist I read about who started off doing architectural illustration and later switched to portraiture. Nothing is set in stone, so you're free to dabble in whatever fields suit your fancy!
Let me know if you have any other questions, I'm more than happy to help :D
Wolkenfeder In what country are you, Germany? I'm in Europe. I'm looking for a suitable master degree to become a scientific illustrator and I don't know where to find the right degree. Do you know more about this subject?
You're a great video maker
Thank you so much!! TUT
Thank you so much omg 😭
thANK YOUU
I want to be a science illustrator. I have a BA Hons in fine art and plenty of technical training at academic art ateliers. I'm looking for an MA. Do you know if an MA in illustration is enough to work as a science illustrator, or does the master degree need to be specifically about scientific illustration..and if so, does anyone know where there's such a master degree in Europe? Not medical illustration.
I just switched my major over to illustration and all I hear from my professors is ‘freelance freelance freelance’ would these options land me a stable job? Or would they be freelance based?
I am very interested in the outdoor artists but what exactly is it caed

When I was SCAD the most popular answer I got from graduates was "I became a teacher"
Who disliked this video .....
Unfortunately these jobs you are talking about are very difficult to get unless you have some sort of connection or you know someone in the industry. That is the reality.
That’s what networking is about isn’t it?
Which fields are you particularly interested in?
I wish I 100% knew!!! I love so many of them TAT Given my style and my preference for subject matter, I'm leaning towards children's book and food illustration. But I'm kind of a solo artist and really want to focus on making my own books/zines/products as well ;D
Street art and you say people love that crap...what a poor choice of words woman. Thumbs down 👎🏻
