Comics One
what art education does one need in order to get a job with Marvel Comics?
i got a steph son who i've been trying to get a response from Marvel but i get none. his long time goal is a job with Marvel working in their art dept. anyone know what kind of schooling or education you need? i would greatly appreciate any help. this young man does have tons of talent in drawing.
Ok, I have no idea how old your step son is and I'm not sure what the Americian qualifications are.
If you are in the uk you would need to follow this sort of career route:
GCSE art
A Level Art
Foundation degree
Ilustration/Comic degree
Taking these courses show that the person is really motivated and as the level gets higher, independant creativity and general quality of the work improves so much.
The most important thing is to build a portfolio. Get your step son to do lots of self motivated projects, in addition to any school work.
The second most important thing is to build contacts. Get loads of work experience in smaller comic businesses (I assume there are some), graphic design companies, film, animation, even video games
Good luck, I hope some of that helps
