>>5959101I very much disagree, if I’m on to something then this is a matter of course correction, not backtracking. Assuming I’m right, to keep your head down and stay ignorant would allow you to continue on the journey, but the destination would not be what you envisioned when you began.
>>5959180What do they say? That you don’t need a degree to do their job, from what I’ve heard. I agree, and I know why they’d say that, but what I’m trying to say is that statistics seem to be telling me that the people who get the jobs to begin with have the degrees. There are more people NOT going to art school who are trying to make it in this industry, and yet this demographic seems to only comprise 10-20% of job holders.
>>5959193I ask here because I’m hoping I’m wrong, and that someone here can prove it. I don’t want the reality to be that your odds become 10x greater if you go to art school, because that would cost me a lot of money, and potentially hinder my actual opportunities when I have minimum debt payments to keep up on. That said, nobody’s provided other statistics yet, so I’m becoming convinced that it may be worth continuing research on.
