Creative Wales recognises the contribution of freelance illustrators. Creative Wales ensures a wide range of freelance roles are routinely available in the screen and digital sectors by funding a range of indigenous and inward investment productions across HETV, film, animation and games. All of these productions incentivise the use of Welsh based talent. Creative Wales support for the publishing sector through the Books Council of Wales is also contributing to the availability of work for freelance illustrators.
Freelance illustrators working in the media sector can also apply for the freelancer development fund provided by media.cymru. This provides up to £1,500 per person to cover loss of earning during eligible training undertaken by the applicant, as well as further funds towards the training itself provided through the Welsh Government’s Flexible Skills Programme. In addition, they can currently apply for up to £10,000 to Research and Develop ideas for new products and services and experiences via the media.cymru seed fund, supported by Creative Wales. In addition, Business Wales offers general advice and guidance to all businesses in the sector including marketing, business planning and sales advice.
