Well the "artists make money from gigs and merch" is a bad example.
Not all bands are the fucking beatles.
Next time you play a game check out the credits.
You see all those people? They needed paying.
Copy and past fucking flash games? Same boring shit
over and over again with different graphics?
Fuck that.
"budding" film makers will still go out with their cameras?
More of this "do it for free it'll be good for your portfolio wank" eh?
They'll create memorable and noticeable works whilst holding down a second job to pay for all the equipment eh? Film at fucking weekends?
You future entertainment is full of "Tough Shit"
Gold mine? Do me a favour. Most of us just want to get by.

STOP ARGUING THIS POINT
b3ta is split between two types of people...
creative people who are working in creative industries
and everyone else who thinks the creative industries are evil and that because my job means i use a pencil and paper that i should be doing it for free for the benefit of mankind.

Your argument is as valid as that of a prostitute who says
she has no other alternative other than to be a $500 a night call girl.
Well yes there is an alternative... live within your means and get a proper job. Tough.
Wanna make money from fannying about doing something everyone else wants to do? Great. Just don't expect everyone else to tie one hand behind their backs just so what you do makes any kind of financial sense.

So you are saying working in the creative industries is not a "proper job" then?

I'm saying it's over valued.
Anybody with a computer has the technology to make music, design, animate, create games, edit video. This has the effect of devaluing it.
If you're talented enough to make it to the top and earn a healthy salary, great! But for everyone else, STFU and get aproper tradtional job. OR enjoy doing the thing you enjoy with the trade off that you wont make much money from it.

Anyone with a WHSmith scalpel has the means to be a surgeon.
I don't suggest you try it.

Orher than mine which actually happens... beautiful women realising they can make a small fortune by selling their bodies for sex rather than just working as secretaries
As opposed to suggesting something that has NEVER happened... that anybody can buy a scalpel from WH Smiths and suddenly become a surgeon.

No...
He posed as a number of things - he never actually did them. and anyway, he posed as a supervisor in a hospital, not a surgeon.
"he agreed to act as resident supervisor of interns as a favor until the local hospital could find someone else to take the job. The position was not difficult for Abagnale because supervisors did no real medical work"

I'm confused
mainly, I think, because you don't quite know what you're arguing any more!
Artist? Not an artist? Relevant? Who cares.
At the end of the day, will technology stop to take into account the financial preferences of a few deluded industries, rather than those industries embracing progress and making the best of what's to come?
No. No it wont.
