Quoted By:
well i mean for example Bungie the video game company wanted these requirements to be met for an ENTRY level career position as a concept artist;
1) bachelors degree in graphic design or fine arts
2) 5 years work experience minimum in concept design
3) portfolio of previously published works (final products person was paid to produce)
4) 5 previous contractor entities to contact as reference regarding your work
5) link to your personal web business site
6) you must be willing to travel at moments notice to meet their needs
(back in 2015)
...
jus fyi entry level concept designers make 16,000-20,000$ per year +/- benefits also the only thing they do is paint images that are later used as base references for the artists that make the physical 3D models to be used in game, 90% of the time a concept artists work is never publicly published in the game itself.
