Friend of mine is the designer for a little skateboard company him and his friends started up about a year ago. He can draw ANYTHING in photoshop, and on paper of course, and I think he could easily do some nice logos. I've seen him design a layout before but not sure if he has any splicing or html skills.
Would he have a chance at making a living off from drawing cartoons and logos in this industry? Are there companies that would hire him or is it more a freelance thing?
They have boards in local shops and do contests and all that but he's still hardly making beer money off from his part on the team (as far as I know) and that kills his motivation, I think they have too many people that aren't bringing anything to the table. But that's their problem, I just think my buddy could put his work to use better elsewhere if he's not happy with the skateboards thing.
