Do you see (realistically) yourself going anywhere in the future with whatever digital medium you work with? What I'm meaning to ask is, is it just a hobby or do you expect to make bank off of it? If you think you can make a living off of it, what makes you think you're capable of doing so, when there are so many other capable designers and such out there? Obviously, if you're already living the dream (so to speak), I don't expect you to answer these, haha (directed to some of our very own members; props).
Me, I'm definitely not creative or knowledgeable enough in any digital field to make a living off of it. I've tried a little of everything, and it all interests me--I'm just not exceptionally good at any one field (or any field, for that matter). |

I think I'm okay, but I'd be lying if I said I never thought about going to school to pursue a career in graphic/multimedia design. I toyed with the idea for a bit; there was never any doubt in my mind as to whether or not I would easily get a job in the field, but I realized that my true passion is writing, not art. I'm hoping to improve, though, considering the fact that creating websites for businesses and whatnot.. easy money. Hehe.
This is an interesting topic, though, considering the fact that there are so many awesome designers on here.. I'm interested in what their responses are. |
