No offense, but you seem to have an extremely narrow view of what art is and who works in that field. Have you literally never once looked at the credits of a video game or even a movie? Do you not know what art is at all?
Have you really never watched television or looked at a magazine and simply not considered the people who make these things?

- sixothree 3y agoYes. It was out of line.
- williamcotton 3y agoYou’ve described commercial animation and illustration, which certainly takes skill and perhaps talents one is born with. I’m talking about art! Creation without deadlines, without the money men to distort the underlying creative act based on commercial and financial needs, etc. I realize that technology puts creative people out of work but it doesn’t stop creative people from making art. Have people been complaining about the decline of music studios as a laptop, a single microphone and a bedroom have become sufficient to create radio-ready pop music? Almost every studio engineer and record producer that I know have had to find new careers. Some have even given up on art. My brother, after 30+ years of engineering and producing both indie and major label recording artists is now primarily engaged in creating large-scale public pieces that combine sound producing sculptural works with the ambient sounds of the surrounding environment and subsisting entirely off of grant money and the dole!
