Pop culture and illustration-illustration culture is so powerful, when did it appear? How did it develop?

Illustration culture is so powerful, when did it appear? How did it develop? Illustration is a popular cultural symbol gradually derived from information dissemination in modern society.

It can represent today's culture, fashion and popular art. With the development of information technology in human society, illustration art is constantly expanding and developing. It can be predicted that it will still play a very positive role in the future information dissemination.

Now almost all visual means can be presented to people in the form of illustrations, and even this way has become a new communication tool. about

Some people who don't know much about the industry or are not particularly clear about some contents can simply and conveniently understand the ins and outs of things through illustration, so illustration has become an image design with the general public as the main object and visual communication as the main form of communication. At present, the expressions of illustrations are very complex and diverse, not only in the animation industry, but also in the fields of science and technology, medical care and even fashion art, which seem to be irrelevant.

In fact, illustration is not only popular in recent years. If we want to trace back to its predecessor, we can trace back to ancient caves. The earliest illustrations appeared in altamira Cave.

These illustrations were painted in caves as murals, and in medieval Europe, the art of illustration had been used for religious reading. Later, with more and more ways for people to accept this artistic way, illustrations have gradually been used as a way in natural science, grammar books and even some writers' collections. With the development of art and artistic thought, illustration art has been recognized by many people.

2 1 century illustration art is not only the same as before, but also needs to sit and draw with pigments and brushes. Now the way we use painting has gone beyond static images. With the gradual popularization and rapid development of computer technology, illustrations for commercial purposes no longer use paper and pigments as tools and materials, but more use digital software.

Illustration art began to get rid of the dependence of words and appeared in front of people, gradually becoming a new art form. Even a painting without any words can bring people a lot of new cognition and convey the author's different ideas.

What is the market value and development prospect of commercial illustration? First, the illustration industry will not treat you badly.

At present, the market for illustrators is still very scarce. As long as you have the strength, finding a job is not a problem. Before looking for a job, you should practice your skills and lay a good foundation for your promotion. It doesn't matter if the salary is lower at first, it's important to improve yourself at first. When you are really mature, salary will not be a problem. It is very understandable that you can't always generate electricity for love and study illustrations for life. Below I will explain the industry prospect of illustration in detail, and also give you a reassurance. Just learn, and the illustration industry will not treat you badly.

Second, I want to make an appointment with you. I hope you can have a great teacher.

If you teach yourself completely? Do you think you can learn well?

You go online to pull information everywhere? Do you think you can learn?

Are there any illustrations? Can you handle it yourself?

However, if you have a master to take you, do you have a feeling of hope in learning illustration? Yes, when we first learned illustration, the easiest thing to give us hope was an awesome teacher. We have a great teacher as our teacher, and we are particularly confident in our hearts. Although we can't do anything, we are always at a loss and have inexplicable confidence. So the best prospect of learning illustration is to have a good teacher to take you.

Of course, students may be worried about not finding a good teacher. The theory is like this, but the reality is very skinny. It doesn't matter. I'll introduce you to an online illustrator. He will make a free live broadcast on the Internet at eight o'clock every night, and many people on the Internet will listen to it because it is very humorous and easy to understand. It sounds very enjoyable and makes people feel that their brains are wide open. Students who want to study can go to Yu Rou's external mind (homophonic): the front group is w9, and the back group is Kaka. Just combine the above two groups of letters in order. Smart people know how to absorb the essence of others and use it for me. Don't wait any longer, start your way of illustration learning.

Three _ _ _ Tuodao is even more embarrassing.

Illustrator liberates the traditional painting art from paper and pen, and achieves the best visual effect through a computer, a graphic tablet or an ipad. The strong demand of advertising, media, film and television, animation games and other industries makes commercial illustrators a very scarce talent in the design industry. The market can be said to be in short supply, and wages are of course rising. It also makes commercial illustrator one of the most potential and "money" occupations in the future. Commercial illustrators are known as "golden rice bowls".

Four, and so on. Reduce capital and steal chimneys?

Any occupation is to support the family by meeting a certain demand and then getting paid. The same is true of illustrators. Before learning to draw, it is best to start with the illustration industry and get to know the general situation of this circle. In this way, we should start from the European and American environment where the market is mature and standardized, and credit is guaranteed. In fact, the circle of people also has its own operating mode, such as not charging by the piece, but timing.

(1) The minimum hourly wage of American imperialists is $7.25 (for reference). In western society, high-paying jobs are nothing more than doctors, lawyers and corporate executives. The hourly wage of surgeons with knives is $ 175-285. What is the painter's income? The specific hourly wage ranges from $25 to 100. The average price of the whole illustration is about $65,438+000-500. Need a higher cover, the price will be more than 2000 dollars. More specifically, for example, detailed, complicated and demanding illustrations used for publicity may rise to several thousand dollars. In fact, it is already difficult to evaluate here. Different project requirements, different levels of artists, and different personal efficiency, but usually the faster you draw, the higher your income. For example, if people ask you to finish it in 10 day, you don't have to paint for 12 hours every day. In an environment where you are paid on time, you will definitely get more money.

(2) Illustrators don't have jobs every day, and the salary is not that simple. Strictly speaking, efficiency, level, style, education, etc. It's all useless The only standards in the industry are works and qualifications, especially the latter. What projects have you participated in? What did you show? What are the specific responsibilities? This is the key to determining income. In short, the "average annual salary" of game painters in Europe and America is around $50,000.

(3) As for freelance illustrators, they just wait for the job and do it when it comes. I ask you to draw something, you dawdle for ten days to submit the manuscript, pass the acceptance, calculate the money and settle the bill, and the guest officer walks slowly. Freedom of working hours and attitude, such as bumper harvest in the first half of the year and laziness in the second half; For example, gay friends mixed a big job and then divided the rain and dew;

(4) Most painters started their careers from freelance illustration. Just waiting for work may not have so many lists. So it is better to enter the company. The game industry has always been one of the big consumers of illustrations.

On the basis of working for five nights, I am glad to see my body swelling.

(1) Unlike the aforementioned European and American markets, commercial illustration started in China around 2000, when the game industry in Chinese mainland was not an industry at all. There are American and Japanese game predators outside, and there are scattered CDs inside, so the situation will not be mentioned. People who can mix game illustration and conceptual design are rare.

(2) Around 2005, many commercial illustrations gradually matured. The wooden bridge of online games has made many painters find their goals. There are also some people who are connected to the European and American markets through the internet and can receive thousands of dollars of jobs. But most people don't know the market environment of others, and there are not a few foreigners who have been cheated. Only a few lucky people can really participate in the production process of European and American game manufacturers.

(3) Around 2065438+00, while online games, page games and social games flourished, smart phones also began to explode. Based on this platform, an unprecedented game market followed, and the domestic game market was instantly ignited. Smart phones and related applications have given birth to the demand for illustration art, which is the really fierce demand gap. Since then, full-time, part-time and freelance illustrators are willing to work hard, with tens of thousands of dollars a month.

Fourth, the income of illustrators.

(1) Monthly income of 4,000 yuan: Can you draw an excellent cover illustration every week?

If you can, you can try to find a magazine or weekly magazine with a cover of 1K or so. If four magazines sign contracts at the same time. After two months, your payment income will be stable at 4K per month.

(2) Monthly income of 8,000 yuan: Can you master a variety of mainstream painting styles and be familiar with comics, illustrations and advertising illustrations?

If possible, sign contracts with magazines and publications, and sign contracts with animation, games and advertising companies to do external illustrations. After two months, the income stabilized at 8 K.

(3) Monthly income 15000 yuan or more: can one third of the income be used as social expenses?

If you can, you can contact the heads of TV stations, film and television companies, film crews and event planning companies to establish cooperative relations and promise business commissions. After half a year, the income will be stable above1.5w.

(4) Monthly income of more than 20,000 yuan: Can you run a large-scale project and pay the start-up fee in advance?

If you can, you can find a planning project or company to cooperate with. Active income is high, but it is also risky. However, it is easy to earn more than 2W a month.

Can I be an illustrator all my life?

There is no denying that the painter's career will fluctuate under the influence of the market. But the life span of a painter can actually be very long. Many people will say that being older is not as good as an intern who just graduated. They can stay up late to catch up.

In fact, the more experienced painters, the higher the efficiency, the more recognized by customers, and the higher the pass rate of project completion. Some popular painters have even become well-known brands of the company and become one of the core competitiveness of the company. Especially those painters with high influence in the circle, their appeal even far exceeds the value of the works themselves.

Can an illustrator work all his life? To take a step back, in fact, after the painter retires from the first-line work, he has rich project experience, and can also control the quality of art for the company, guide new people, participate in planning and so on. You can also independently develop, open studios, hold training courses, hold art exhibitions, publish personal collections, sell the copyrights of your own works, and so on. As long as your work is recognized by everyone, you can do it for a lifetime.

Can an illustrator work all his life? As long as you really like painting, you should boldly devote yourself to this industry. As long as you really paint and polish your work, painting won't let you down.
