Amazing what results can be created with simple text input 🙂
Concept Art is herewith officially dead.
I disagree. I am old enough to remember the arrival of photoshop as a mainstream tool. They deemed a lot of things will be dead since then. nothing died.
It is new blood, workflows will change. Deadlines may get shorter. But a master artist will utilize this so beyond the understanding of masses, they will still need to go to him for best results.
You are in one point right: No one (should) questions the art creation as a profession and tradition. I did not write “masters artists” will die, I just expressed the claim that the concept art, as we know it today, will not exist in its actual form and workflow in the near future. It will become something else. The creativity and output of next generation of concept artists will be measured by the linguistic and mental skill to represent their ideas to the machine for optimal visual results, instead of controlling rhythm, flow, and movement of hand, arm and paint-brushes in PS.
Already today it is very difficult to earn money with CA: there are simply too many concept artists out there and the demand is minimal. Our company mailbox is full of concept artists searching desperately for jobs – but no rigger or coders.
It is actually good this change happens, it will mix things and bring “concept art” to the next evolution level.
ps. I bet I am older then you, this allows me too to create retrospectives based on experience and direct observations 🙂 I have started painting with aquarelle and acrylic and published my first comics as ink drawings. All of my friends and competitors from that time paint now in Photoshop. Since 1970 PS has killed so many analogue, traditional Art-Workflows, I am puzzled you did not noticed PS has rendered to a hobby or rarity level (rarity example = Simon Stalenhag) a generation of different painting techniques and workflows? I know almost no concept artists earning money with ink and oil – thanks to PS.
Photoshop debuted in 1988. I dont know where you get 1970 from…
Excellent point. If the only comment is the scale of the bounding box of the decade, where I packed the historic changes of transition from traditional art to digital art, then I am ok with it. I was already afraid some professionals will come up here with intelligent arguments I totally underestimated, like: “one of the main differences is the Undo function, where a digital artist may overcome the difficulties of …” or “it is still much easier to capture an exact idea first in the manual process and then go to generative art, using ..:” or “Concept Art is always more valued in the context of its uniqueness” and so on.
But no, it’s the f**%g year.
Yeah well, sorry to not being able to intellectually challenge the Great Igor. I just thought that 18 years was quite a discrepancy and only wanted to correct that.
As someone said on Facebook, for this to work the clients need to know what they want. Hehe.
Good one MauricioPC. So what you have been up to? i remember you in SI forum.
I think it AI opens a lot of possibilities, but it will hit the precarious field very hard, especially on a global scale, from click workes, to PowerPoint illustrators and rotoscoping artists… I tried to use it in an experimental film last year, but it still feels like a new century on the horizon… https://vimeo.com/668288943
