- In this video, I talk about applying for jobs as an artist in the game industry. you can use these tips in the VFX industry as well. Also these rules could apply to other jobs in the industry as well. applying for jobs could be frustrating but once you get more experienced, you will eventually learn the best practices and you will be able to increase your chances to get hired.

I realized that I wasn't clear enough about the " Connections " in this video. When I said apply using your " Connections " I mean to apply, you can reach out to anyone that you personally know and now that person is working in the industry! Or you can reach out to someone that you have worked with in the past and now that person works in the studio that you want to apply for.
thank you very much , those videos are really helpful and answer a lot of questions I have as a beginner 3d artist , also can u please review my portfolio www.artstation.com/artoras
@@artoras9748 you are very welcome. for sure I want to do portfolio reviews as well. I am a bit slow these days on youtube because of some projects that I have but soon I will do more videos and also do portfolio reviews and share them.
As always, great content man... Btw I really appreciate it when cover letters are not required. Investing 15 minutes to write a cover letter to a company that you will most likely never hear from is a big waste of time in my opinion. Cover letters at least to me seem to be an outdated concept. If they are interested in you after seeing your work, they can check you artstation/website or contact you. In the companies that I have worked for, the bulk of applications, being from all over the world is insane. When you separate the good portfolios, normally the next step is to read their info and make an interview (online or in person). If a cover letter gets a view, it will be just a quick glance, especially if the person recruiting has been going over portfolios all day, chances are they will not remember who wrote what. But anyway, Id love if you cover why you think Cover letters are important and how to make a good one. :)
I agree with everything you said 100%. I was basically trying to cover everything in this video but as you said cover letter is not always required.
Amazing videos .... Please do more
I dropped evrything what I'm doing when ur channel pop on my notification
That is very nice of you! I hope I can grow this channel and share as much info as I can!
Thank You For Uploading. I was waiting for this video. :)
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@EdgeloopAcademy I really enjoyed it and it inspired me to improve my skills. Thank You :)
Great video as always!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi, what is the exact url of the google job search featured around 4:30 ? I've never seen that and when I do the exact same search than you I don't get the same result.... or is it a US-only feature?
Hi. It could be a US only feature. I just search the job and it shows the results.
@@EdgeloopAcademy thanks ! do you get results for jobs in europe or asia when doing this? I guess I'l have to try with a VPN or something.. it looks so useful..
Cover letter 💌 video plz
Cover letter video!
love the opening sequence :)
thank you :D then I should probably keep it!
Thank u great video. Its very difficult for university student who are just graduating and trying to find job with no prior experience about how things happen in professional world. The only weapon you have is your portfolio. Then u just have to learn how things work in job culture along the way.
please upload an interview with arvid schenider who has been working in vfx industry as lighting and look development artist and lighting TD. now he is in ILM and ask him how to apply as lighting and look development artist in vfx companies
Thanks
Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome!
Thank you so much.
You are very welcome.
Your channel is very helpful, can I suggest a video about what is the minimum level to entry in the industry? Maybe is a tough question. Some people say that I should see what is trending in Artstation and try to achieve something similar but I don't think is good to compare with people who have been working for 5 o 10 years when you don't have experience. What do you think? And thank you.
I am glad to hear that. I can definitely make a video about what you need to get into the industry.
@@EdgeloopAcademy thank you:)
Alwayes thank you
intimidating 😢😓.
Thank you, Siamak. I was waiting for this video.
you are welcome!
It is intimidating. Can be demoralizing when all you're getting are rejection letters that is if they bother to respond at all.
That is why i always say your goal should not be working in a studio. Your goal should be becoming the best at what you do.
Really appreciate your videos. I'm finishing my 3D studies in school now but I feel like I haven't even started. My portfolio is not close to good for any application and I see soo many skilled people out there and I feel like this industry is a really fast race . Hope I could keep up and in a year two and have enough skills to apply for a studio.
just keep grinding and you will definitely make it through!
Thank you for this. May I email you some questions please? I am rather stuck and could use some help from someone in the field. Right now the only advice i've gotten was from a academia. Heck one professor told me that college counted as experience in the field and I didn't need experience in the field. Since he was in the field and like an idiot I believed him.
Sure. Siamak.roshani@gmail.com did you join my diacord server?
I'm currently living in south korea so basically whether i have superior set of skills than others or i have more variety of set of skills than others in local, there would be extremely low possibility that ill get the job? And plus i just found your channel today and its being super helpful thanks!
glad that you joined my channel! actually if you have more skills and if you are really good at it then you will have a better chance to get a job or even find ways to monetize your work without working for others full time!
Thanks for your videos, is a great content, I want to apply all of your advice in my life, Good Luck
Glad you like them!
Thanks for this amazing video 😍😍😍
It's really helpful
My pleasure 😊
Great video! It really helps for uni students like me and would really love to see another video on writing a cover letter .
Glad to hear that this was useful. I will make a video later about how to send an email and approach companies that way.
Thank you very much for this video.
You are very welcome
Wow! This video was super cool! Thank you!
Your idea about making a booklet artwork and 3d print was so cool!! I'm a game animator and I wonder how can I surprise my dream company just like you said (Also they are in different country T_T )
You said one of the best ways is to ask our connections. Do you mean people that we know like our colleague or friends or....? Is it Ok to ask our Linkdin connections who work at that company even if they are not close to us? Isn't it rude?
And again thank you for this cool video!
Glad you like the video. I should have been more clear on that. I mean connections that you know personally! if you have a friend working in a studio or if you worked with someone but that person moved to another studio and you want to get a job in that studio as well. let me know if that clears it up for you. You are welcome!
@@EdgeloopAcademy Understood! Thank you!
I did most of your tips naturally.. I guess I am just not good enough as it lead to nothing substantial. :-(
Don't give up! I didn't hit the like for your comment because it's negative. Watch my next video about the interview process and watch it till the end. There is a saying from " Edison " at the end! Think about that more!
Siamak R I liked yours though ;). Thanks for taking the time to answer my comment. It wasn’t meant as a negative remark though. I was just trying to keep it grounded. I have been trying to land some work in the toy sculpting biz for quite some tome and it just seems like there’s always a reason not to hire me. They never give a valid reason though. Funny enough I have no trouble landing clients for graphic and webdesign (visual communications) and I als have no problem selling my sculpts as 3D prints. It’s just a difficult industry to get in I suppose.
So informative! Thank you Siamak.
You are welcome brother!
Thank you for this, Siamak!
My pleasure!
Great Video!! Keep them coming!
Thanks! Will do!
Youre doing a great job! Keep it same way)
Thank you so much!
This is awesome thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful!
