What will the industry look like when anyone can create art? Finnian Macmanus started as a concept artist and now is the Founder and Creative Director of Terraform Studios. His team has worked on projects for Star Wars, Jungle Cruise, Lion King, Wandavision, and many more IPs.  In this podcast, we discuss the many AI tools that already exist (like Midjourney and Dall-e 2) and what the future might hold for artists. We also talk about what makes a good concept artist, learning design, and what it's like working in film and games.
