Alternatives to Movies and Video Games for hard surface artists
Hello Polycount community,
I spent some years studying subdivision surface modeling, by practicing concept designing and vehicle/props modeling, although upon searching for jobs, I've noticed that the vast majority of them are only from Game studios and VFX.
I was wondering if any of you had a list of other fields that are looking for SubD modelers, or how concept designing skills of Vitaly Bulgarov and Alex Senechal could be used besides the aforementioned two industries.
(Simulations is one but I couldn't find any positions, possibly because there is considerably less demand for 3D artists?)
Thank you everyone

Thank you so much for this list. I had one last concern though, do they all use SubD workflow? Isn't that something that is more useful to VFX?

Depends on the field / industry.
For what it's worth, there's a broad variance between CAD and Subd workflows though too my knowledge stuff like, for example product viz, advertising, 3d concept or arch viz would lean toward the latter but maybe useful to further research into a given industry that might be of interest. -
Very well, thank you for your information, sir.
