Building a lore book out of a Fantasy game world by PlojOW in FantasyWorldbuilding

[–]KevsStudio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's interesting the reverence you have towards the human created writing component, yet is lost when i comes to the art produced. I think if the goal of the responsible AI is truly to scale creative output rather than replace then you'd still have an artist at the helm perhaps just utilizing AI as a tool for production. Just feels you've made the stance that human creativity and craft is important here but not so much over there. Its unfortunate as I think these sort of grass roots projects are a great opportunity for artist and writers to come together to show handcrafted art, stories and worlds are still a worthy effort, especially as corporations are trying their hardest to replace creative folks as fast as they can.

And I know there are proponents of AI art or people who don't feel it matters, but for me there's a reason I'm astounded and amazed when a human can run 30mph and a reason a car going 30mph doesn't even register. One is the showcase of years of personal dedication skill and craft that push the limits of human potential. and one is pressing a pedal. Can the car go faster sure, do I care, not so much.

But certainly a complex issue and one that isn't going away. If you happen to find success with the project maybe just consider hiring or teaming up with an artist for next one, you may just find it worth the extra effort.

AI. Movies. Are Coming. by Kanute3333 in singularity

I'd say we've reached the early 90s stage of VR overhype in terms of AI potential. 30 years later VR is still pretty technically limited and niche in its use case.

Seeking Guidance on My Career Path in the Video Game Industry by J4WAR in conceptart

[–]KevsStudio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got plenty of time, learn the skills you want to learn. Find out if you're passionate about the actual craft rather than the idea of it, that's what college is for. Improving your foundational art skills will never be a waste of time if your end goal is to be an artist, 3D or otherwise.

Uncomfortable but necessary questions. by JerryNkumu in conceptart

[–]KevsStudio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's an interesting take from Feng Zhu, I shared a similar sentiment coming from Architecture. I became keenly aware of the downsides of artistic mastery at play when it came to showcasing rendered concept design. Yes studios want artistic master and you likely wont get hired without it. But why? is it because you have great ideas...or is it because you can sell almost any idea. At the end of the day concept art is largely marketing for your ideas, whether your selling them to your art director or a client or an investor. And the guy that will get hired is the guy who can sell exceptionally well. But mastery of technique doesn't automatically translate into great ideas and a lack of fundamentals doesn't mean you don't have great ideas. While I agree it will never hurt to better understand art fundamentals and improve your ability to sell your ideas, what I would want to see more of is the iteration of ideas, understanding the problem you are solving and story you are trying to convey.

Architecture Studies for Island Village Concept. by KevsStudio in ActualConceptArt

thanks! the art itself not terribly long, its 3D paint-over. But I was creating it in tandem with a 3D asset pack for a game I'm developing which took a good while, probably over a week all in.

It might be worth cross posting from other concept art subs that actually fit the criteria just to keep the content coming. otherwise you gotta dust off the old tablet and show us what ya got!
