"Hello, if possible, could you clarify your needs and prices?"
On the other side of the ocean, Gu Weijing typed on the keyboard and sent a question mark.
Requesting a manuscript is a very customized matter, and each order has its own circumstances.
Although Gu Weijing wrote ten dollars on the sign, this actually just means that his charges are not high. It is better to discuss the specific situation with the buyer individually.
It’s normal to charge ten dollars for a simple drawing of a bunny. If the other party wants to draw the Mona Lisa, they can’t just charge ten dollars.
“Character illustrations require paper versions. It cannot be completely electronically drawn."
He just received a message from the other party asking for a manuscript, and the other party should be online as well, so the reply was very fast.
"Characters."
Originally, Gu Weijing accepted all kinds of manuscripts, but he rarely painted characters, because characters are much more complex than pets.
Now that he has obtained the anatomy of the human body, Gu Weijing really has the urge to draw the human body, just like when you buy a new hammer, everything looks like a nail.
However, he still clicked into this user's homepage first.
This kind of username, which is a string of English and a string of numbers, has no characteristics and has no avatar.
Except for showing that the shipping address is in San Francisco, gender, preferences, purchasing habits, etc. are all blank.
Gu Weijing shook his head slightly.
It is like a fiverr account that someone randomly registered in order to make a few businesses. The intuitive feeling is not very reliable.
“Hello, if you are requesting a painting online, I will not draw butter here, nor will I draw r18 or above involving bloody and extreme violence and other legally restricted themes. If it is a private painting of a character, the content scale needs to comply with the platform Restrictions."
Gu Weijing does not refuse to paint naked curves. Basically, the artist is no stranger to the human body. Many of the famous paintings exhibited in art galleries can make conservative people blush.
For pure art, laws in various countries are very relaxed.
Even many of the world-class paintings that have appeared in art textbooks for students from all over the world are nude. Just think about it and there are a lot of classic works, such as Ingres's one of the masterpieces in the Louvre. Grand Odalisque, Lady Diva on Horseback by John Collier of the Royal Society of Arts
Komatsu Taro’s father, Japanese painter Kenta Komatsu, is known as “Klimt living in Osaka”.
The Austrian painter Klimt himself had a famous motto that inspired artists, "All art is pornographic."
However, when requesting manuscripts online, , you don’t know the other person’s specific identity, age, or even the specific purpose of this painting.
So Gu Weijing’s standards tend to be conservative.
He thought for a while and felt that he had said almost everything that needed to be said, and finally continued to add: "The payment method only accepts the platform, and does not accept telegrams or private transactions of virtual currency.""
There was no response from the other side.
After a few seconds, hyerion1077 sent a big smiley face.
"ook, thisisthedeae viewers, this is us The next deal is being made. "
At the same time, Thomas's personal video studio in San Francisco, USA.
The new video for the series "From One Dollar to a Million Dollars" is already in the intense recording process.
Both one hundred dollars and one thousand dollars are easy to find, but the price of ten dollars is indeed a bit low, and most part-time painters look down on it, especially in Europe and the United States where per capita income is high.
< p>Thomas himself didn’t expect a ten-dollar painter to be able to draw any flowers. Anyway, all he needed was a backing work to pave the way for the impact of the next million-level work.No matter how bad it is, he doesn’t care. Be mentally prepared.
This price range is full of students and amateurs. He feels satisfied if he can see where the head is and where the foot is.
After all, he has used one before. The work was obtained in exchange for US dollars from a homeless painter on the streets of San Francisco
How do I put it?
It took the homeless "artist" twelve seconds from receiving the money to delivering the work. Bell.
Thomas didn’t even see the pros and cons of the painting.
Thomas was not optimistic at all that ten dollars could buy the work.
If such a cheap artist could draw something perfect and lifelike, then what would he spend a million dollars on?
In Thomas’s personal judgment, illustrations worth less than 10,000 dollars and illustrations worth more than 10,000 dollars are fine. People who don’t understand art can probably tell the good from the bad at a glance.
“This is a newly registered part-time account for a painter, called Detective Cat. We can see that its poster also has a character with it. The cat with the monocle is quite cute, iikeit"
He raised his head from the computer and looked at the film head of the Alai 4K movie camera worth 200,000 dollars in the hands of the cameraman. Put your hands on your side.
“For ten dollars, you can buy a three-layer cheeseburger combo at a Burger King fast food restaurant and four hot dogs at a roadside hot dog vendor in San Francisco. You can also find cheap painters willing to complete an illustration for you on fiverr. But I guess there won’t be any surprises. ”
His hand clicked three times in the air.
Thomas is not live broadcasting, it is still in the video recording stage.
The special effects team will do it later. Produce corresponding special effects and illustrations, and paste posters of Burger King, Hot Dog, and Detective Cat respectively.
With a fan base of hundreds of millions, he has long since broken away from the small workshop model of ordinary U owners.
The production cycle of the channel’s short videos ranges from a few weeks to a month.
Thomas only needs to be responsible for conceiving the content and managing the program, and the rest of the post-production, special effects, etc. Tuning video clips will be veryProfessional team to complete.
When this video is officially launched on YouTube, during the entire video process, the post-production working team will use special effects to make the cat on the homepage of this ten-dollar website different from other ones. Price's studio poster is clipped together and placed in the upper right corner of the video with the 10 logo.
“The store replied to my message. No, I don’t paint butter, and I don’t paint r18. Only then did I know that painters still have this kind of business.”
Hyperion said jokingly. He made a big face at the camera and put the screen on his mobile phone in front of the camera.
One video is twenty minutes long.
The time left to introduce this kind of small shop will not exceed ten seconds. This chat can be regarded as a highlight of the video, and you can save a shot until the end.
The photographer made an OK gesture.
"Ten dollars is a bit low for a portrait painting. You need to pay extra for such a large painting."
Gu Weijing typed tentatively.
"Only ten dollars." The other party replied without any room for change.
"But I don't need you to draw a painting that is too big."
"The height is about 10 cm and the width is about 6 cm. You can add a little personal creativity, but it should not be higher than 15 Centimeters or less than 4 centimeters”
Thomas is very economical.
More than one million US dollars was invested in this video, in addition to the income from video playback.
He will also paste the purchased paintings as creative sketches on mugs and put them on his own peripheral mall.
"Ten centimeters, hmm." Gu Weijing made a rough gesture.
Very mini for portrait painting.
But it’s not too small. Before the invention of the camera, some people would ask people to use simple drawings of family members’ heads or busts and put them in a pearl pendant or folding mirror. That was called a pocket , all require the use of special ultra-fine brushes.
"Don't worry, your drawing is almost good. I won't ask you to revise it repeatedly."
The other person seemed to be afraid that Gu Weijing would reject his order, so he said quickly.
"Okay."
Gu Weijing thought that he needed to quickly get good reviews for the order to complete the series of tasks.
Compared with another complex construction scene order, although it was only ten dollars, he still preferred this order.
"Is it a photo?"
He asked.
The other side sent a photo of a masked man wearing Batman armor and a bat mask, waving dollar bills in his hand.
The trademark of the peripheral shopping website "hyerionstore" is written on the wind-blown cloak behind the doll.
This is the bat suit officially co-branded by Thomas's Hyperion Channel and DC Batman.
Because the production cost of each video often exceeds millions of dollars, andThe content is often very exaggerated.
Thomas is also called YouTube Money Spreader, Shenhao Brother or YouTube Batman by fans because of his "money ability".
"Batman sy is okay. But for anime content, I only provide illustrations for fans, but if you use them for other commercial purposes, you have to bear the risk of infringement."
No problem drawing Batman.
Gu Weijing didn’t know who the customer was, and he didn’t think that the customer had the copyright to Batman.
Although Time Warner Group’s legal department has free time, it probably won’t be able to pursue this kind of ten-dollar illustration.
But growing up in a calligraphy and painting shop, he understands the importance of being prepared.
This time the reply was very fast.
"I have three views and a professional contract here. The manuscript must be delivered within three days at the latest, ok"
The other party sent two documents.
Gu Weijing browsed quickly and found a photo of the cloaked man from all angles, both front and back.
The other one is an illustration contract.
The contract is very professional. The general content is that Gu Weijing will exclusively sell all other proceeds from the painting except the legally non-tradable signature rights to that user hyerion1077. At the same time, the risk of using the painting for commercial profit will be borne by the other party. .
Gu Weijing is familiar with various formats of art contracts in calligraphy and painting shops. There is nothing wrong with this contract. If the other party does not mention it, he will send similar instructions to the other party.
"Dealed."
After the buyer confirmed the order, Gu Weijing took out a pen and paper. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
