How far have we come? In a just released report, The Center for Scholars & Storytellers, BRIC Foundation and the Concept Art Association explore the race/ethnicity and gender identity of concept and visual development artists across animation, live-action, games, series, and movies/feature films.
Just how far has the industry progressed? The Center for Scholars & Storytellers (CSS) has partnered with the BRIC Foundation and the Concept Art Association (CAA) to address this question and have published their findings in “State of the Industry: Visualizing a New Landscape for Artists,” a recently released report that explores the race/ethnicity and gender identity of concept and visual development artists across animation, live-action, games, series, and movies/feature films.
The report provides a compilation and analysis of publicly available data collected by the Concept Art Association, including the race/ethnicity and gender identities of artists within their network who were involved in a critically acclaimed or top box office creative project released between 2018-2022 in the Western world.
The report's stated goal is to start a conversation about a category of industry professionals that have not yet been considered concerning equity and inclusion – and to address the question of how far we have come and still have to go.
