A Lucrative Career As A Display Artist

By Olivia Cross


Some people know exactly what they want to do in their lives from the time they are children. Others are simply on the fence about it for quite a long time. For many it has to do with the fact that they have hobbies and talents that they don't know how to turn into money making opportunities. For example, artists who have a keen eye can turn their talents into a lucrative career as a display artist.

It is these specialists that create wonderful commercial displays in trade shows or in store windows, among others. The duties can be several, depending on the particular situation. One may be required to select colors, props, the right lighting, as well as the themes.

Developing the portfolio is an absolute necessity in order to carefully demonstrate one's skills. When meeting managers or others who may offer work, they will need to study any previous work in order to make their decisions. There are many knocking on these job opportunities, so it has to be done carefully. For example, one may need to present floor plans, sketches, or models. The bottom line is that all the work needs to appeal to the buyer's senses.

Merchandise sales have been proven to increase through counter showcases, which means display artists will also have to put together attractive counters. The artist will therefore have to pack and unpack props, and carefully lay them out. In addition to that, they must keep careful records of said props, and always ensure they are properly maintained.

It would also entail the professional to collaborate with team members or other staff to ensure everyone's on the right page. As such, meetings with different levels of management may also be required in order to achieve the best results. Once the displays are completed, taking good photos is vital to keep building on one's portfolio.

These experts have lots of opportunities on the commercial front. There are various paths one can take, as such. With the numerous common elements, one can expand such a business easily through properly promoting their portfolio, and of course with the natural talent and expertise within the field.

For these reasons, it is vital that the individual takes his or her time and put plenty of thought into the portfolio. It is the art of perfecting one's style so that it is showcased in the best possible light. In truth, with all the talent one may have, success ultimately relies on how one promotes their portfolio.

That requires knowing how to reach out to managers, agents, or representatives and landing interviews. That said, it all begins by marketing oneself and the previous work accomplished. Everyone has a certain style, and that style directly translates into a signature, so it should be well developed before marketing begins.

It's vital that artists reach out to those that hold the key to landing projects, whether one is in New Orleans, LA, or elsewhere. Look for social networking that spreads the word ever so quickly and effectively. This along with a blog dedicated to the subject should always be updated regularly.
