  • Picture Book, Freak Flag, or Business… which one is calling yoooou?
    Which course should I do? 🎨📚We get asked this aaall the time: “Do I start with the Picture Book Course, Fly Your Freak Flag, or the Business Course?”There is no wrong order.Right now the Business Course isn’t open, but… ✨ The Illustration Business Club (our shiny new name for it) opens for enrolment on the 19th of September!We almost dropped the word “business” because we thought it might put illustrators off. When we asked our students though, the answer was a big NO. That word was exactly what motivated them to jump in and learn the nuts and bolts of building a creative career they love (and get paid for).Hooray! 🎉In this episode, we chat through how to know which course might be the best place for YOU to start, and how to avoid getting stuck in analysis-mode worrying about making the wrong choice.Here’s what we cover:How to know if you have found your creative voice yetConsistency = a magic ingredient for picture book charactersWhen does it make sense to start with Fly Your Freak Flag?...or dive straight into the Picture Book CourseOur creative car vs business car analogy 🚗 🤓Why the Business Course tends to work best after Find Your Creative Voice, Fly Your Freak FlagFreebies you can try if you're just not sure (Childhood Illustrated, the Colour Workshop, our Character Workshop and more)The veeeery high-tech decision tree that makes the which-course-should-I-do choice for you 😆Timestamps00:00 – The big question: Which course first? 01:00 – Do you know your creative voice? 02:15 – Why consistency matters in picture books 03:00 – Picture Book vs Freak Flag (gut instinct wins) 04:30 – The Business Course (and why not to mix it in too soon) 05:30 – Creative car vs business car analogy 07:00 – What to do if you are not ready yet (hello freebies) 08:30 – The one-hour live illustration masterclass 09:00 – Our decision treeLinks and goodies mentionedFind Your Creative Voice – Fly Your Freak FlagThe Picture Book CourseThe Business CourseFreebies Page (it's a long.
