Subject: Video Game Career Help: Game Artist Careers

I would like to know some information on video game careers for Artists. My friend is an artist and he is thinking of going into the game industry. I don't know that much about what Game Artists do and the sub-jobs so could I get some help?

For some information, my friend is a spectacular drawer. He has drawn characters, environments, and Logos. He hasn't got into computer software(Photoshop, Blender, or etc.) but he is very good at math and gets good grades in all his classes. He is willing to take the time to learn things and use it.

Trolls are insecure about their own pathetic lives that they act cool behind a keyboard.

This thread is probably better suited for the Flood forum. Or google. Though google probably doesn't go into the detail that you want.

So the Flood.

There's so much information online, loads of people asking the same questions, it's easy to find a lot of answers on the subject from industry professionals. A good idea is to look for relevant online communities and have a search around, you'll find some useful stuff.

Personal projects will also be greatly beneficial, your friend's gotta keep drawing or doing whatever they do best. Practicing in your own time pays off.

This is some broad advice, but hopefully better than nothing!
