Welcome to a special bonus episode of Overshare. Host Justin Gignac sits down with acclaimed illustrators Ping Zhu, Daniel Fishel, Marly Gallardo, and Molly Magnell to discuss all aspects of navigating a creative career through the lens of illustration. The group tackles a wide range of topics from how to break in and get the attention of clients, being patient with yourself as you develop and discover your personal style, how to determine what to charge and what is too low for each of them, how to ask for more money, and techniques they use to navigate down times. This conversation is full of insights and advice from 4 artists navigating different stages in their careers—from Molly who is fresh out of school to Ping who was an answer on Molly's quiz in school.
This episode is a complement to Working Not Working's Illustration Week content. You can find more interviews, articles, short films, and exhibitions on Working Not Working Magazine.
This episode was recorded by our friends at Second Child in NYC. Most of season 2 of Overshare was recorded in their beautiful production facility in downtown Manhattan and we were excited to fully utilize the audio studio for this roundtable. Huge thanks to Jesse Peterson for editing this episode.
