    Job Outlook for Concept Artist

    Powered by Glassdoor Economic Research

    Concept artists illustrate objects for animators to develop. Most concept artists refine their skills by obtaining a bachelor’s degree in a related field, such as graphic design. Repetition and constructive feedback can further improve their technical skills, as can workshops and non-credit. Prospective concept artists should develop a portfolio of sample work to show prospective clients and employers. Demand for concept artists is expected to grow slightly over the next decade, as existing artists transition to other fields.
