Several careers in the fields you've mentioned can require a person to find independence in working alone. Here's a breakdown:

  1. Visual Arts: Many visual artists, such as painters, sculptors, and illustrators, often work independently, spending long hours in their studios developing their craft and creating their art. Freelance artists may also work on projects alone.

  2. A/V Technology: While collaboration is common in this field, there are roles such as video editors, sound designers, and audio engineers who may work independently on editing or technical aspects of projects.

  3. Printing Technology: Some roles in printing technology, like graphic designers or print production specialists, can involve independent work, particularly when creating designs or preparing materials for printing.

  4. Performing Arts: While many roles in performing arts involve collaboration (like theater productions), there are also individuals who work independently, such as solo performers, dancers, or musicians who create and perform their work alone.

Among these, Visual Arts likely stands out the most for requiring independence, as the majority of artists operate solo in the creative process.
