Doing It for the Art	comment	When dealing with media, sometimes it is difficult to overcome the feeling that, however much you may love a TV show, movie, video game, etc., the only reason it exists is to make money. Sure, it might have great writing, acting, animation, etc., but when it comes right down to it, it got produced because someone wearing a fancy suit thought a bunch of other guys wearing fancy suits could make money off of it. However, there are plenty of people in media who do their work just because they find it fulfilling. Not all of us need money to justify effort. A lot of people are honestly just Doing It for the Art. Those from outside the art world usually associate this mindset with what is visibly present on the work. If there is an immense amount of detail present in a work, many feel it has to be because they are committed to pure artistry. However, this is a misconception, as plenty of artists will do this even if a paycheck is the ultimate motivator. Artists that do it for the art will be the first to admit they stretch their personal limits because that's their only motivation. Any work they do will be work done for its own sweet sake, even if it is never expected or intended to make money. Sometimes they will even turn down any kind of monetary compensation, no matter how much is offered to them. This often applies to niche media, since oftentimes, with more popular works, the creators must work with the general expectation that they need to create something to satisfy a large audience above all else. Now consider that Tropes Are Tools. Doing It for the Art does not equal quality work. If it did, then this page would have been put in the Sugar Wiki a long time ago. Some examples here are of people who genuinely tried, but just weren't talented enough â€” Sturgeon's Law still applies, regardless of the creator's motives. (In which case this would be some kind of consolation, as in, "That movie sucked, but at least they cared".) Conversely, doing it for money does not equal lack of quality. Indeed, some writers' hackwork is preferred to what they regarded as important stuff, sometimes because doing it for money was the only way they let down their pretensions. Also, if somebody lets their success get to their head to the point where their "vision" hurts the quality of their work, it can quickly slide into a Protection from Editors situation. However, the romantic ideal represented by this motivation can lead to a backlash against creators who are perceived to be doing something solely (or even partially) for reward, possibly by people who assume that doing something for money means you don't put your effort into it for artistic reasons as well. In film analysis, someone who does a lot of this is called an auteur, as opposed to the metteur en scene, who is the journeyman director who makes someone else's movie. Within the artists' circle, this practice is called "Art for art's sake". Of course, if it does actually make money, well that's just a perk. The same motive appears in a far less benign (and more explosive) form in For Science!. Compare and contrast with Awesome, Dear Boy, Money, Dear Boy, One for the Money; One for the Art, and So My Kids Can Watch. Contrast with Pandering to the Base, Propaganda Piece, Contractual Obligation Project, and Creator's Apathy. See also Serious Business, The Producer Thinks of Everything, Shown Their Work, Written for My Kids, and Creator-Chosen Casting. Important Note: This only applies when creators openly state they prioritize art over profit. No matter how impressive something might be production-wise, a behind-the-scenes factoid or a visual effect is not proof on its own that the creator or production team is Doing It for the Art. This page is not intended for Gushing About Shows You Like. If you are looking for pages to gush about impressive facets of production regardless of motive, please post it on Development Heaven, Awesome Art or Visual Effects of Awesome instead. If you were sent here by an example that better fits any of those pages, please correct this by moving the example away from the Trivia page and into one of those pages instead.

Doing It for the Art / int_14461185	comment	Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team. You do not get much more committed to a work than when your director dies partway through, causing a series that could really be wrapped up in just three months to drag on for three years and keep going at it and refusing to let any of that lessen the quality. To say nothing about the realistic nature in which it was portrayed.

Doing It for the Art / int_21810fae	comment	This is the core and bedrock of Octavia Philharmonica's character in RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse. When she becomes Princess Luna's Court Musician, her joy comes not primarily from the wealth and fame the position brings, but from the fact that there is no audience in the world with more experience of classical music and more ability to understand and appreciate her work and from the fact that as Luna's Court Musician she has the time and resources to learn fields of music she would never otherwise even have heard of. In The Court Musician Of Equestria, Octavia is contrasted with Thrash Metail. Where Octavia is devoted to music, Thrash just wants fame and fortune, as shown by his willingness to resort to mind-control spells to make his audiences believe that his work was good. This becomes clearest in the final confrontation between the two of them, where Octavia asks if any of his music from before he found the Guitar of the Sirens still survives, stating that if he ever was, even in the slightest, a true musician, he'd want to be remembered for his own work, however mediocre it might be. Thrash replies that he burnt the records. They didn't bring him fame and glory, so they were worthless to him.

Concerned that working for an existing studio would not give him the creative control he needed, he founded his own independent animation studio, spent years raising funds and figuring out the desired art and animation style, spent even longer to secure the music, sound, and voice talent he desired, and even wrote the scripts for all 26 episodes himself in several languages. The end result is an incredibly polished childrens' action/adventure animated series that's regarded as a Cult Classic.

Doing It for the Art / int_5dec0867	comment	In Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!, this is subjected to a Decon-Recon Switch. Midori Asakusa and Tsubame Mizusaki both share a strong passion for animation, and found the Motion Picture Club with friend Sayaka Kanamori in order to let them make the kind of material they want. However, their very same passion becomes an obstacle multiple times along the way, with Mizusaki's emphasis on highly detailed character animation bogging down the pace at which she can work, to the point where she spends two weeks working on a single cut at one point, and Asakusa's inability to accept the idea of outsourcing labor (due to her own difficulties at socializing and a perceived inability to properly convey the ideas she envisions) forcing her to undertake far more work than necessary. However, thanks to Kanamori being around to keep the two in check while still making provisions for their own wishes, Asakusa and Mizusaki are able to get their projects actually finished (albeit at the last minute) while still having room for the kind of artistic expression they strive for.

Doing It for the Art / int_673bc211	comment	In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the adults in the Golden Ticket tour group question Willy Wonka as to the actual purpose of the elaborate Chocolate Room. Beyond the waterfall, which of course mixes the chocolate, none of it has a practical application; as Mr. Salt asks, "Well if it isn't for anything and it doesn't make money then why on earth does it need to exist at all?" This leads into an I Am What I Am song for Wonka, "Simply Second Nature", that's specifically about this trope — the room and, in fact, all of his creations as a confectioner are created out of a personal, restless desire to make the world a lovelier place in his own way, and this is more important to him than whether a given "work" will make money or not. (This makes the backstory detail that he became a reclusive artist after greedy rivals stole his work rather more poignant than in other versions.)

He hid out in a tiny village and kept his skills a secret because he didn't want people to come offering money for his swords. He wanted to create a sword which was a work of art. He did have a less-skilled friend work as a front man and bring him the good ones though. Unfortunately, this ends up backfiring because when the nobleman who hired him to make the sword started quibbling over the price, Domingo calls him a fool for haggling over a piece of art, which Domingo worked himself nearly to death on. The unamused nobleman takes the sword and kills him. We all know how that ends.

Doing It for the Art / int_727259ac	comment	The Ren & Stimpy Show creator John Kricfalusi. He turned down the offer he got from DreamWorks Animation to pitch a movie because he thought the team compromised his creative vision. He was also so insistent on keeping the original content of his cartoons in, he purposefully slowed down production of The Ren & Stimpy Show so the censors would have less time to go over them. It worked, but ultimately got him fired. (Needless to say, the Spumco staff is generally Doing It for the Art â€” after John K was kicked out, the majority of the crew left alongside him). The unbelievably high quality of Spumco productions (with John K's rule to never draw the same expression twice) is not unheard of either â€” especially that all of it is done for TV. However, as evidenced by this blog post of John K's, it's also quite evident the economic thinking is not absent.

Developer Naughty Dog had a habit of perfectionism and only hiring the best, most driven people to make their games as good as could be, which meant they'd be willing to put up with twelve-hour-plus workdays and coming in sick to work on the game. They were never asked to work overtime week after week until they were hospitalized because they'd do it anyway. Some employees found it impossible to do it for the art in the extreme crunch, to the point that most game animators refuse to work with Naughty Dog at all.

Doing It for the Art / int_b659836d	comment	In The Elder Scrolls Online, the House of Reveries is a theater troupe in Summerset that's all about this trope: while most artists in Summerset are hoping for fame, the members of the House of Reveries give up their identity, donning a mask and a new nickname (such as "Alchemy", "Feathermoth", "Clever", etc). It's to the point that if the face of one of their members is seen, that person is kicked out of the troupe.

Doing It for the Art / int_b80c3b	comment	Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, anyone? Done out of Joss Whedon's own pocket as a response to the TV Strikes, with the cast and crew being paid almost entirely out of any profits it made from iTunes sales and ads and eventual DVD sales. And it's insanely popular. One of the DVD commentaries for Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog is the appropriately titled Commentary! The Musical. In it, Felicia Day takes the time to tell us, and remind herself, that it's "All About the Art". And not about the hunky co-star, awesome shoes, or promoting her own web series. Joss sometimes gets this reaction from people who have had the pleasure of working with him. When Joss called Nathan Fillion to pitch the idea, Fillion said he saw the caller ID and answered the phone with "the answer is YES!"

Doing It for the Art / int_c43df4d8	comment	Most producers and writers, and even actors on Doctor Who see the show as their lifelong dream, but special mention has to go out to Russell T. Davies, who tried for sixteen years to get it back on the air. Say what you want about his storytelling, but he really loved the show. This trope even extended to actors who werenâ€™t even fans of the series before appearing in it. William Hartnell took to the series like a fish took to water, going to the extra effort of labelling many of the dozens of levers on the TARDIS console so he knew which one to use for a specific purpose and had great faith in the future of the show, which couldnâ€™t be said for the other shows he previously appeared in. Jon Pertwee enjoyed doing the show because he finally got to have the chance to play a suave action hero rather than another comic character, also developing friendships with the other cast members and crew, and Tom Baker thought the entire idea behind the show was cool and was more interesting than his own personal life. Not forgetting all the other people who worked on bringing Doctor Who back after its hiatus and those who work on the Doctor Who Expanded Universe, such as Nicholas Briggs for Big Finish Doctor Who. It helped keep Doctor Who alive before its return. The Doctor Who Restoration Team, the people responsible for the remastering on the later VHS releases and all the Classic Series DVD releases work for free so that people can see the show in the best possible quality.

He has a personal distaste for advertising and sponsorship culture, and that despite facing immense pressure from companies offering him exorbitant amounts of easy cash, he rejects it every time. He does upload his music on streaming services, sparingly sells merch, and has a Patreon for donations, but he doesn't promote or even incentivize them with rewards. He also doesn't think much about maintaining a mainstream online presence, either — he allowed himself to disappear without announcement in 2019, then return in 2021 revealing he spent the interim learning 3D animation.

Now, they make enough money off of merchandising for it to be their entire livelihood. After it started picking up steam, The Brothers Chaps were offered, multiple times, TV shows and movie deals for Homestar Runner. Each time, they've said no. The closest they've come is the Telltale games, all of which have either Mike or both Chaps working with Telltale extensively on lines and story.
