Store links for trusted and reliable equipments
WELCOME TO D-ART
Goal
Expensive Equipment has been an issue for new/limited artists who are having difficulties in purchasing it. The problem lies with finding alternatives as people would have to search widely and hard to choose the equipment they just need at an affordable price. D-art solves the issue by providing recommended equipment with its own reviews in its own respective page, all the necessary information to use as a guide in finding their equipment is all in one website. D-art also provides links of online stores for these equipment and news feed for any discounts/sales of certain items
Values
We have delicate care for our audience because we are also them, so we give them full freedom to choose their own equipment with the given reviews we have of them. Unlike other companies, we do not include ratings/a numerical value of the products as we understand that people have different needs and different circumstances.
VFX artist
Job description:
VFX artists produce digitally generated imagery that is photoreal. The role calls for the seamless integration of these effects into live action in motion pictures, television, and, increasingly, internet and console gaming. The most recent technology is used by VFX artists to create computer-generated creatures, crowds, and stunt doubles. Digital particle effects, which can manipulate objects and lighting and include fluid and fire, are another expanding field. You must persuade the viewer that what they are witnessing is authentic. This might be a dragon, a castle from a fairy tale, a downpour, a large wave, a spaceship, a superhero, an extraterrestrial city, or a complete planet.

Figure 1. Educational Attainment of employees.
It is observed in the graph that Art Directors accept any level of educational attainment of their employees. However, take note that more than half of the population graduated with a bachelors/master degree. Less than half are those who graduated with lower education. For Animators, VFX Artists, and Filmmakers, most of the population are associates or graduated with a bachelor's degree in their field.
This indicates that for some jobs you don’t have to have a bachelor’s degree in order to take on the job. Though having a bachelor’s degree is most preferable among all three choices. The Animators are the exception as the graph is shown.
Figure 2. Comparison of Yearly Average Base Salary.
It is noticeable that the Philippines has a relatively lower average salary in terms of the creative industries chosen. In the graph, it is shown that in the Philippines, Art Directors have the highest average income and Animators have the lowest. Ironically, Animators have the highest average income among the 3 countries chosen.
In the US, it’s the Animators who got the highest and the VFX artists as the lowest income. While in Japan, it’s the Filmmakers who got the highest and Animators as the lowest income.
This shows that in each country, each jobs’ income is different and it should be taken into account if you consider getting jobs outside the country. It is also shown that Art Directors have a great paying grade in all three countries among the rest of the jobs. Their average salary is also relatively better than others.

Headline: The Creative Economy could be your workplace
To promote the Creative Economy, is to promote transformation/evolution. When defining Creative Economy, there is no singular definition. It is a concept which builds and evolves from the interplay between human creativity and ideas and intellectual property, & knowledge and technology. It is essentially a knowledge-based economic activity. The Challenges in promoting the creative economy are many as it can have different perspectives and needs, but the focus would be COVID-19 and how it drives the creative economy to evolve again to counter said challenge.
The creative economy can offer a practical development option, particularly for developing countries. Using intellectual and creativity capital, the production and distribution of goods and services are used as primary inputs. They consist of a collection of knowledge-based activities that result in the creation of both material things and immaterial intellectual or artistic services with creative content, monetary worth, and market objectives. However, a report states that the exportation of creative services of developing countries are underrepresented and faced hurdles. Furthermore, there is a significant difference in the creative trade gap between developed and developing countries. Other significant hurdles faced are COVID-19, climate change and environmental crisis, geopolitical tensions, and cost-of-living crisis. Despite the hurdles, the creative economy remains a critical sector for sustainable development.
The biggest hurdle would be the COVID-19 pandemic as it slowed the progress of trading creative goods and services which resulted in unemployment. Most of the economy solely depends on freelancers, which is four times as many than those employed with formal roles. This poses a challenge to the promotion of the creative economy because no one would join an industry that is failing or in trouble especially in times of crisis. The adoption of digitalization could improve the creative economy by promoting technical innovation, boosting digital infrastructure, and facilitating digital transformation in associated industries. However, despite the adoption of technology, to avoid mass unemployment it is critical to cultivate creative abilities that cannot be replaced by technology. Although there is a problem with digitalization, and it would be the high cost of the digital equipment which could hinder the plans to adopt digitalization. The whole concept of digitization has been in progress for some decades and the availability of equipment can be solved with multiple companies developing and selling a multitude of products.

Choosing an art course is often seen as impractical as there is a notion that art makes no money, which is not true.
