What My Unpaid Art Job Taught Me (the Hard Way)

I'm a Illustrator artist who a few years ago got the craziest unpaid Art Internship that was at least supposed to be an illustration job that I trusted would have me draw and help me get actual paying art jobs in the future. I was very wrong and instead I learned exactly why its a bad idea to take an unpaid internship, especially a creative one, of any kind if it doesn't give you some sort of credit or teach you in some way.

I learned a lot from this, but nothing they meant to teach me. In fact mostly they hired several interns just for the sake of cheap labor. so I'm here to share with you what I learned from this whole thing, so you don't have to do through something like this yourself! I unlike them, actually like to teach.

Also, enjoy my speed art in the background of the video! I drew them how I remember them as an album cover - which is what they had originally told me would be my job. not making website designs and video editing, like what actually happened in this internship....but I digress.
