Collaboration

Collaboration is a very important part of the career I want to pursue in the terms of concept artists and the media they create. Concept art is made to inspire certain design elements but rarely is it the final product. Through collaboration with other media designers and animators, a final product is then developed.

This is also the case with things like D&D rules and books. The concepts are a collective of player responses, reviews, and homebrewed content that if popular enough becomes official and makes its way into the final product.

For example, a class for a D&D character was created by a player and was also inspired by "The Witcher" and was called Blood Hunter. This is now an official class for the game now   

The use of digital tools allows for more collaboration and actually provokes it as well. Being able to get feedback from anyone or even allowing them to make their own contributions to the whole. The use of the digital medium allows for a much larger pool of people to interact with.
