  • Strong understanding of digital content creation tools such as Photoshop, 3D software, Rendering engines etc.
  • You have a minimum of 5-years’ experience as a professional concept artist for film or AAA game development.
  • You have worked with Art Directors and Game Directors on architecture, interiors, exteriors, and props.
  • Experience with 3D modeling software.
  • Excellent illustration skills, deep understanding of composition, color theory, values, form, shape language, and silhouette.
  • A keen eye for photography and cinematography.
  • Able to carry an idea from the conceptual phase to the finished illustration and an understanding of translating these ideas to real-time game environments.

Preferred:

  • Experience working in photorealistic keyframes.
  • Experience with game engines.
  • Experience in video game development pipelines.
  • Experience with 3ds Max, Maya, Zbrush, Blender or other 3D content packages.
