Working On Demand
Especially in advertising, storyboard artists are often called upon to create on demand. When an artist is called into a meeting producers expect a rough sketch of what the finished TV commercial, or spot, will look like to persuade and engage the client to buy the concept being pitched. If the client wants revisions, the artist may be required to drop everything to create a reiteration that more closely meets the client’s expectations.
Freelancer Agent Relationship
Most storyboard artist, illustrators or visualizers chooses to work on a freelance model because of the nature of the business. Typically hired by art and film directors storyboard artists typically have a demanding schedule. Tight deadlines and working overnight working are commonplace and often expected. Typically freelance storyboard artists will belong to one or more storyboard agencies such as Famous Frames.
