Everybody thinks they are an artist. Every creative person believes they can make riches on the internet because it seems like every other creative is doing it. (Ever heard of photoshop, comping, prototyping and fake news?) I'll get my art on a wall mural at Coke! Nike will love my designs for their shoes, as soon as they see my instagram, I will be GOLD! I am a much better photographer than the one Beyoncé hired, how did THEY get that gig? I really hated that Super Bowl ad, I could have shot/photographed/filmed that much better!
Think so, right? Maybe, but mostly, no. In the commercial art world, unless you have professional representation, an agent, or have a vast and elite cultural network, the chances of you landing that A-List gig that actually PAYS is very unlikely. The only other potential path to riches, is if you game the social media game so intently and with intention, adding on extraordinary talent and networking skills, you ARE going to need help. Not just for the one job, but for the long game that will carry your creative a!# to sustainable income well past 40 years, 50 years and beyond.
