If at any moment you thought we were done with our "Career Series", you thought wrongly, permit me to correct that now.
Just as we were getting our informations together for this series "Career Options" we met with this pro and his field is so awesome.
Let's get to meet him and find out what makes it awesome.
This is where pen speaks and i'm Bsorlah
Please sir, introduce yourself.
My name is Martins Owa Mathias
A Digital graphic Artist and A film maker.
Wow all in one, nice.
What exactly does this fields entails?
😀
As graphic artist, i assemble together pixels, colours, images, typography, or motion graphics to create a piece of design.
While as a film maker or film director, i'm in charge of making, leading, and developing movie productions
Wheww, that so much to take in.
But then anyone can do something with an image or color, why then is a graphic designer needed? Or an artist as u call it.
Though when it comes to art, i consider myself a free spirited designer, meaning i don’t place myself under a certain category. i just create as i feel at a given moment. so most times its even difficult for me to explain the end before creating.
So their is a huge difference between an artist and a graphic designer in my perspective
A great artist is but a conduit or fluid for an expression that resonates with something that is greater than him or herself - Imaginary Foundation.
Deep words, but then how productive is this field?
Well, it solely depends on the individuals point of interest.
Either Business, Fun or anything, it is highly productive.
Hmmm for someone who is approaching this field for profit reasons, is it gonna be a positive pursuit?
It cannot be phantomed, The only thing that can make out the difference is environment; The environment he or she finds herself.
Yes, well, I'm not a business Artist.
Knowing your field first will ease you so much, for instance, when you're able to separate business from family and friends.
True sir
😊😊
The aim of this series is to let youths understand the various options of career out there and not have to wait on office jobs, so with this opportunity to talk to youths about your field what will your advice be?
Well, Knowing your area of strength is the number one factor.
In art there are various fields.
see what others are not doing and then go ahead and do it, you must know why you choose the field.
Start with the gadgets you have and share your ideas with friends and tell friends to tell friends and so on... Build the circle like that.
Choose a particular field, focus on it and be very excellent at it.
I think, hence the world would see the genius in you.
Wow
You are a man of many wise words I must say.
As a host I plead for the first 3steps to take to becoming successful in this field? So anyone aspiring can learn from it.
Step 1 Borrow a laptop(if you don't have one).
Step 2 have a flash with the desired program in it.
Step 3 install the program then start practicing
And when the laptop is gone go borrow another One.
Repeat the same process until you're able to buy yours
It might seem uncomfortable but it's worth it.
Believe me guys these steps are important cause its coming from a man who has been through that process.
One last question as we wrap up.
If you have one huge opportunity to create something for youths what will it be?
An art institution!!!
Why will that be?
Not just a school, but a creative place where people will connect to divinity... Because what people are driven with will be provided for.
I see what people don't.. If given the chance I will change humanity... We want to express.
Express something deeper than life itself, something that is larger than us.
That's what I will do with people.
Its being awesome having you here and we hope to have you again.
We will love to have your contact details for mentorship reasons.
Thanks for having me.
For now I don't do calls, I connect via social media
