Today I decided to look up one of my inspirations Feng Zhu. Feng Zhu is a highly accredited concept artist in the Entertainment Industry. One of the things that really stick out and surprise me is the fact that he has participated in a triple-A game title. Feng Zhu has been working in the industry for quite some time and makes him a good example for how the Entertainment Industry has changed. In one of Feng Zhu's YouTube video he stated that the Entertainment Industry has changed drastically over the years, before there were hardly any concept artists for movies and video games. The job competition was very low when movies and video games came out, but now the job competition has risen so high that it's no longer about your ability to draw, it's about the speed you are able to produce ideas and the quality. Listening to Feng Zhu's Youtube videos has really taught me a lot about the Entertainment Industry and how it has changed from when he started.
