Creative Mind - Introduction with host Bobby Brill
Being an artist is lifetime adventure. I know that sounds pretty lofty and idealistic, but in reality, that should be your goal – a lifetime creating with a nice paycheck to go along with it.
On each episode of Creative Mind, I talk with some amazing working artists - illustrators, video game designers, art directors – and we talk about how to build a career and keep it going, what skills you should develop, and what your investment in art school is really about.
My name is Bobby Brill and I started this podcast for two reasons – one, to get to talk to some really cool artists. It is so important in your career to hear what other artists are doing, what is trending and what path to take when your career pivots, because it will. For example, I went to art school and studied painting but make a living writing and directing videos. So, getting the right advice from the right people to help your career flourish is key. And the cool thing is many of our guests are faculty and alumni of Academy of Art University.
The other reason is to help students and their support team – parent, relatives, the people helping pay for your education – to understand what an art school education looks likes. To answer those questions that are gnawing away in the back of your mind. Can my kid really earn a living making video games? The quick answer to that is Yes – and I wish I was working in video games as that is the most exciting content being made for the last 30 years.
So if you are thinking about going to an art school or looking for that nugget of advice to keep your career moving forward take a listen to my podcast - Creative Mind.
