He addressed that they are playing a vital role in conceptualizing and developing a wide range of creative assets in several circumstances. These artists are extremely good at what they do and must possess various abilities to succeed. He also stated that a concept artist is responsible for creating everything you see in a video game or film. Weapons, props, vehicles, characters, clothing, buildings, interiors, and every minute detail of the character fall into this category. He advised the students that concept art is a rapidly rising area, yet it is also fiercely competitive. Therefore, you will require expert-level art principles like perspective, anatomy, composition, light, and tone to get started as a concept artist (among other things). To captivate the realistic details that pitch, you will need to spend a lot of time practicing from scratch.
