Freelance Digital Artists are Not Happy!

    As an artist from Kenya, this mentality that people from "third world" countries are just eager to gobble up trashy rates from american or otherwise employers is stupid. Just like they don't want to pay you they definitely don't want to pay us what we are worth and expect even higher quality from us which is ridiculous. We just accept it sometimes because there is literally no other choice not that we are somehow more accepting of exploitation. I have been an artist since I was 10 going 30 now and it is offensive to me that someone will categorise all my work and experience as somehow deserving of less respect just because of the country I was born in.

    Well the thing is , West has always been at the forefront of Creation . Unfortunately the third world countries are so poor that they dnt have time or resources to invest in the creation of novel ideas. This is why most of them end up being the copycats . Ever wonder why third world countries dnt ever catch up to these Economic giants ? . Well it's becoz of that. A country must exercise innovation and innovation is not possible without having a vigorous institutions of Research and Development. The same is true for any profession. You will be paid more if you stand distinct but this gets harder becoz of currency as well . Since you dnt live in the west , you will always be paid less becoz of the devalued currency of your country. Coz currency exchange also plays the role . The solution is commodity money not the hegemony of American man printing the dollar at whims and defining the creation of value universally . This is why it will always remain the same , unless it changes.the value extraction is real .

    It sounds like there is a somewhat mutually exclusive relationship between the term "freelancer" and "expert" in your narration. I agree that the market of "freelancers" with very limited skills is oversaturated - but not for a lack of demand in general but for a lack of skill to supply the existing demand. The "skill floor" to succeed in Digital Arts is steadily rising - because tasks below that skill floor are delegated to lower wages countries and in time to AI. So yes, while freelancers below that skill floor will have an even harder time in the future, the freelancers who are above the skill floor - experts or aspiring experts - don't seem to struggle too much. Simply because employers / people commissioning work often have a very specific core idea that they want to see realised in a way they want. They don't just want "something", they want what they imagine. And while you could probably fine tune prompt after prompt after prompt until an AI spits something out that's "good enough" chances are you'll be way more satisfied and will be way more involved in the process if you get a human to work with.

    It wasn't that no one knew what a freelancer was a decade ago, it's that companies have realized they get an out on treating employees like garbage and compensating, or crediting them in the case of the games industry, fairly if that worker is classified under law as an independent contractor. Companies want the freedom to cut a job for a few months to save a few bucks, and they're willing to sacrifice flexibility and continuity for it. It's not people wanting to be freelance, it's people having to be freelance because companies want to run as lean as possible to maximize profits, even if that process ultimately hurts the industry and the things they make. They couldn't care less what's going out the door, or what's going on in the building, as long as it doesn't hurt their current or future potential for infinite growth. The reason people weren't freelance before is because it's inherently precarious. The reason they are now is because the companies know they can bully their workers around without consequence.

    Unfortunately this is nothing new. It happens in all burgeoning industries. In the early days of the Internet there was a severe shortage of web designers and they could earn huge money - then, of course, everyone jumped on the bandwagon and the market was flooded. A major issue coming - or maybe already here - is the advent of AI created art. If you look at Artstation, or similar websites, there are literally thousands of professional quality artists. Pile AI generated art on top of those and it will be impossible for potential employers to find your work. My friend in America is an acting teacher. He told me that only 1% of 1% actually make it 'Big'. I can see the same thing happening in the visual entertainment market.

The back and forth between artist and client can be um.. 'quite robust'. Some of the alteration requests are complicated or very detailed. Someone using AI will have a hard time addressed client feedback via typing in prompt words. It would be like using photoshop with those heavy duty gloves that are attached to triple-glazed windows in nuclear research facilities.

There's so many things to have in mind if u wanna move to another country: Health, money, family, friends, house, transport, law, language, culture, lifestyle, etc... Only the rich can. This affects even more people in third-world countries, where they can't just leave if they want to, cuz the government wouldn't allow it, unless they're rich of course. If u live in a good country, good for u, be thankful to God... but not everyone has enough resources to just "move". So your comment is more like a mock than an advice to people in bad situations.

    And I also want to add that people from third world countries have much more motivation to succeed in life and therefore they replace people from first world countries. It's not about the salary here. The stakes are higher here. Or you will change your life or live a disgusting and depressing life. They want to change their lives more than anyone and put in a lot more effort. Look at some of the most famous artists, such as Vitaly Bulgarov, who made his way from a poor country in Eastern Europe, or Jama Jurabaev, who generally grew up in a village in Tajikistan, where the average monthly salary is $100.

    Finally, you young people are waking up. You are about to live through the most excruciating moments in first world, modern life. The work singularity is going to come much quicker than the great singularity. The average life for an average media creator, such as most of you are, is over. Until the robots come, find something with lots of the required dexterity and multitasking…. other than that ..this type of life, as a so-called artist , is over , as far as the future is concerned, and especially going to school for it. As far as me as a conventional Artist, getting by doing Uber, they just approved driverless level five driving in California. It is going to make my head spin and others how quickly it is going to spread in cities. I am just biding my time and enjoying it while I can.

    I can feel your frustration my friend. Such "professionals" are devaluing the work and making it challenging for those who really know the craft to find a lucrative gig. But all I can say is up the quality of your work in skills and technicality. Strive to be among the bests, among the masters in the craft and work will find you. When one is starting out the competition is many, but when you strive to be among the best in the craft, the competition will shrink and the people you'll be competing with will no longer be your competitors but your colleagues.

    isn't the real problem with 'freelancers' blender, people who think that blender is somehow now the industry standard are in for a massive shock when they find out it isn't, add to that youtubers who constantly try and sell blender as the tool everyone needs to learn because its going to be the next industry leader, your channel included, blender is a jack of all trades, when you consider that blender is not interested in producing a 3D program that gives the user an industry standard layout instead it makes the user jump through an unnecessary amount of steps to reach the same goal, volumetric lighting so that you have light beams is not as simple as setting a light to volumetric and you have the light beam, instead you have to add a box then add to that a node that does volumetric scattering increasing the complexity of the scene, blender has always 'done things the blender way' for the sake of doing things 'the blender way' the idiot move to make selection a right click instead of the industry standard left click is why blender will be a long time becoming the industry standard, you tube channels need to stop this insanity that blender is somehow the software to learn and recognise that it has a long way to go and a lot to fix, the ridiculous convert curves to meshes before you can work with them as objects, i don't know any other program that you have to do this with, even form z a program from a long time back allowed you to work directly with curves and not have to convert them first, having to reset the scale everytime you alter an object x y or z size is beyond ridiculous, so maybe youtubers and those who thing that they are somehow skilled in blender might want to be a little more truthful when it comes to making people think their skill sets are industry standard because they managed to create a doughnut in a program that has a long way to go before its used in place of houdini, maya, 3ds max or cinema 4D.
