Unfortunately, there are a lot of choosing beggars out there. And the worst thing is, they always search for artists to do things for them. Only, unlike the rest of the population on planet Earth, they don't want to pay, and they often cause problems to people who are just looking to work hard and to get paid for their art. In this article, we will explain precisely why art is worthy of your time, and why new artists won't work for free.
You see, everything in life heavily relies on art. Whether you're starting a company and you need a logo, or you're maybe looking to advertise your already existing business. Well, you're definitely going to need an artist's help in doing that. They need to design your logo, and they need to write an excellent script for your advertisement. If your ad is played on TV, they also need to compose a memorable and catchy jingle to go with it. All in all, art is an integral part of life. Painters often paint and sell their work for charity causes, musicians bring a lot of joy in people's lives, and they make your offices lively when you work. And again, people who involve themselves in the art aren't getting enough respect. That's why many of them are pushed in the darkness and the underground, and they often end up making teen porn games for a living. It is just not fair. And on top of not getting paid what they should be, people often also demand their services for free. And if that's not bad enough, you often see ads for internships and companies. Of course, with no compensation. The only thing that they promise you is the 'valuable exposure that you will get while working at our company.' The unfortunate reality is that people don't pay their bills and don't buy their food with 'exposure bucks,' as various internet art communities like to call them.
Instead, we should focus on giving this profession more respect, and we should focus on providing them what they deserve. If we don't do that, many talented people might give up on their dreams, or they will get into gay sex games, and that's how you know you lost them. New generations bear more talented people than ever, but if we don't take them seriously, who knows where they will end up. That's how third world countries with corrupted leaders often end up losing their most talented workers. They relocate somewhere else. Somewhere where they're respected, and where their hard work is getting correctly paid. In fact, if you want good workers, you should implement this into your work ethics immediately. What goes around, comes around, as they say. If you want people to respect you and to treat you fair, you have to do the same. And this is just a piece of advice for those greedy people looking to use honest artists just because they think that 'art is not hard.'
