Generally, submissions are single-frame submissions. There are not many illustrators recruiting, but there may be studios that will hire assistants for free. . .
If you want to submit an article, you must first look at the style of your work and your painting skills.
First of all, you must prepare at least five or more works to make a portfolio. Generally, editors will look at your portfolio, and if you are in a hurry, they may make a decision directly. (When your painting skills are recognized)
Nowadays, when submitting a manuscript, you usually show the small picture to the editor first. If you enlarge the picture, some unscrupulous editors will hack your work. You can use QQ or E - Submit your manuscript by email. Some may have high requirements and will ask you to mail the sample to the editor for review.
If your painting style is more realistic, you can submit it to some science fiction magazines. Or submit a romance novel cover.

1. How to submit a manuscript : Mail the manuscript in a special submission envelope (the kind with a plastic bubble inside that you can squeeze) to protect it, and attach 1. Personal information 2. Contact information 3. Courtesy words 4. A return envelope for rejection. If you don't know the address of the publishing house, please call and ask. If it is a CG work, please burn it into MO or CD first, and attach the printed product (this depends on how the printed feeling is different from that on the computer. If not attached, the publisher still has to print it themselves) You see, this is a routine) 70% success
Take the manuscript to the interview in person
This method is the best, because the editorial department will tell you many useful drawings What's the problem with the technique and the manuscript? It was in Da Ran's editorial department that Ha Zai learned the super important knowledge of storyboarding
, which really paid off for me. Of course, you must call to make an appointment before submitting your article. If possible, it will be better to carry a hidden
recorder
with you to record the interview. Success rate: 80% e-mail Most publishers have web pages, and if they have web pages, they usually have dedicated e-mails for open submissions. Please pay attention to the content of the e-mail! The attached image file should not be too large, about 100dpi, 100~300k ".jpg". If it is too large, people may block the email directly in the mailserver. Just don’t use compressed files, especially in .ace format, which no one uses. exe (especially flash files) is even more important. Many publishing houses will not open exe files for fear of being poisoned. Success rate 60%
2. Submission letter: "I am a loyal audience of your publishing house." This kind of flattery is necessary, but it is not good to be too exaggerated.
Please never say "Sorry for my poor painting", because "If it is not good, then there must be a better one. Please submit your painting to the best one." Of course, if you are too aggressive, you have to say, "My phone number is 09xxxxxxx, don't call after 10pm, because I'm sleeping." Who are you? Quit!
"I have already voted. Many manuscripts have been rejected, you are my last hope." If they don't want us to accept it, then don't we have lower standards than others? Reject!
The words are sincere but not out of style, and the flattery is not traceable. , so this is a profound knowledge! If you write well and the acceptance rate is high, even if the manuscript is not used, the editorial department may reply to you and tell you where there are problems and we will accept suggestions after you correct them; if you write well, If it is bad enough, the manuscript may be frozen, which is scary~~~
3. Manuscript specifications:
Each publishing house has different requirements, but basically for CG , you will be asked to save it as a CMYK file, 300 to 350dpi. If it is a comic manuscript, although the publisher will ask you to send the original manuscript, you absolutely do not want to, because no matter how well you protect it, the manuscript will still be dirty and wrinkled, and the outlets will also be dirty. Half of it fell off, and the scariest thing was that there were even grains of rice stuck to it... So please be sure to send a photocopy (except for comic competitions). If the publisher likes your work, they will notify you to bring the original manuscript to them.
Last and most important, don’t be shy, be brave and take your first step. Don’t be discouraged even if your manuscript is rejected. In fact, it is natural to be rejected. When a certain company does not want you, When you submit a manuscript, it does not mean that your drawing is not good enough, but that the manuscript is not suitable. Therefore, if your manuscript is rejected and you want to commit suicide, please don't be discouraged. You must try your best to submit it to another company! There is a publishing house that becomes your soulmate.
If all the publishing houses in Taiwan don’t want you, why not try investing in other countries? Publishing houses are not limited to Taiwan, right?
