Those illustration trainings all say that the zero foundation of art can reach the level of employment through half a year's training. Is it reliable?

It is not very reliable to say that you have reached the employment level in half a year.

In recent years, with the vigorous development of cultural and creative industries, the illustration industry has attracted much attention, attracting many students who are interested in art but have no foundation. A large number of illustration training institutions have sprung up in the market, playing attractive advertisements of "from zero foundation to employment level within six months". But is such a promise really reliable?

First of all, we should make it clear that illustration, as a subject combining art and technology, its learning curve is not a simple straight-line rise. For students with zero foundation, it is undoubtedly a great challenge to master everything from basic painting skills to advanced creative ideas in half a year. This requires students not only to have high learning efficiency and talent, but also to have training institutions to provide quality and systematic teaching support.

However, the reality is often complicated. On the one hand, the students' learning ability and background are very different, so it is impossible for everyone to adapt to this high-intensity training mode. On the other hand, the teaching quality of training institutions in the market is also uneven. Some institutions do have excellent teachers and perfect curriculum systems, which can help students make remarkable progress in a short time; However, some institutions have problems such as insufficient teachers and unreasonable curriculum, which leads to poor learning results.

In addition, the actual situation of the job market is also a factor to be considered. Although the demand of illustration industry is increasing, the competition is equally fierce. Employers usually consider the applicant's portfolio, project experience and personal style when recruiting. Only through half a year's training, it is difficult for students to accumulate enough competitiveness in these areas.

To sum up, although the advertisement of illustration training "from zero foundation to employment level within six months" sounds attractive, the actual situation may not be so optimistic. Students should carefully consider when choosing training institutions, understand the teaching quality and employment situation of institutions in many aspects, and make judgments according to their own actual situation. At the same time, we should keep rational expectations and understand that any success requires the accumulation of time and effort.
