[Notice] On the Topic of Streaming
8 years ago
So I've been considering doing art streams. It's something I've wanted to do for years now, to be honest. I do have the ability to do so, however, one thing that makes me hesitant is that I'm almost always working on commissions for others.
So I'm looking to see what the general consensus is about streaming that kind of thing. Would people mind if I mostly only streamed the commission work I had lined up? I wouldn't really know what or whose I'm working on until I really get started, to be honest.
Personal work streams would be incredibly rare as I rarely do much spontaneous work for myself anymore. But if hypothetically, people wouldn't be bothered about having their commissions streamed, whether they're available to watch or not, (unless the image has been previously established to be private, then obviously it would not be streamed ever, nor distributed.) then I'll begin to consider streams. I think it'd be fun.

In my general experience, half of the streams I see are for previously commissioned work and most of the other half are for working on commissions obtained during the stream.

Oh that sounds great! Not much of a talker personally but I love to jump in now and again and watch a good artist stream :)

I'd say, just go for it, a lot of streamers actually seem to really be only streaming commission work and sometimes throw in their own personal work/ pwyw stream comm work.
