The Basics (part 1)

Basic rules:

• Don’t be late ! – this is one of the biggest problems in the industry today believe it or not. If you want to be successful be on time, if your not, there will be hundreds of other hungry artists waiting in the wings to take the gap.
• Be reliable. If you say your going to do something do it !
• Think long term – being an artist is a lifetime journey. Try to build as many positive relationships as possible that might help you in the future.
• Work hard – this goes without saying but remember things take time. Most cats who make it have been working hard for many years.
• Develop other skills – there is nothing wrong with working in a job and being an artist at the same time. Having a job will make you the money you need to make a demo and will take the pressure off your art.
• Have fun – this is an exciting industry
