Rob Belics Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 I'm not kidding. I just saw a commercial on television for a school that teaches you to be an artist for production companies, ad agencies, magazines, etc. My favorite line was "Don't know how to draw? Don't worry! That's not important anymore!" Now, they don't explain how they get around that technicality but I'm assuming they teach you Photoshop/Illustrator/etc. Even then, who says you don't need to know how to draw? They show this girl walking around a studio for all the glitz and glamour angles. "Wouldn't you like to work in a place like this?"
J. Lamar King IMPOSTOR Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Funny thing about these ads is, the only people who want to attend would be ones who think they have talent. If you thought you had no talent, why would you apply?
Guest Daniel J. Ashley-Smith Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 Being able to do art IS a talent. What they are basically implying is that you don't need any experience, start from scratch.

Guest Daniel J. Ashley-Smith Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Ah. Yeh, I could see there being some kind of difficulty there.... If it's not important then, why bloody teach it?! Even if it was computer based teachings, it's still a form of drawing. I dunnow... screwed advert if you ask me...
