Looking for 1 to 3 artists

by Ray Graham · in Jobs · 08/18/2009 (3:04 pm) · 13 replies

I have a funded iPhone project that I need 1 to 3 artists for; how many I end up needing really depends on the skill sets that each has. I have the following three roles to fill:

1. concept artist - 40 hours of work spanning at most 2 weeks
2. 3d modeler/texturer - ~240 hours of work spanning 6 weeks or so
3. 2d menu and UI artist - ~60 hours of work spanning 2 to 3 weeks

I need to fill the concept artist role immediately. The artist will concept parts of the work that both the 3d and 2d artists will perform.

The 3d artists needs to be able to start as soon as the concept artwork is done, so that position needs to be filled quickly as well. If this person is the same as the concept artist that would be amazing.

I have a month or so before I need to fill the 2d artist role. Ideally, this will not be the same person as the 3d artist, so that I can parallelize the workload.

I'm the programmer and project manager for the game. The producer is somebody else. So you'll be working closely with me.

If you could link me to some online examples of your work (and perhaps a resume) that would be most helpful. I don't care where you live, though the most time zone shift hours that I can probably handle right now is 10; I'm in GMT -8 (Pacific). It's probably best if you just e-mail me directly at rayg at me dot com, though I read the forum enough that I'll see private messages regularly.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Hi; I've got some experience with making 3D Models, both with high polygon counts and low, appropriate to cell phone game counts.

My portfolio is available at: http://homepage.mac.com/kaylynnspears/

And my contact email is kaylynnspears(AT)gmail(DOT)com. I'd love to hear more about your project, like what sort of game it is (shooter, puzzle, RPG, other) and what genre too! And to be thorough, I'll go ahead and shoot you an email as well.

My name is Sean Tourangeau. I am interested in this project
I believe that it might be right up my alley.
I have a Graphic Design/Illustration degree from the Art Institute of Seattle,
and I also have a varied background including animation and computer graphics.
I have attached links to my 2 websites below where I have several examples of my work.
I believe I can bring a lot to the table. I have a lot of experience. I work fast and take direction well.
Plus, I can come up with illustrations (concepts or otherwise - b&w and color) if you are in need.

Hi I would be interested in the 3D role. I am a seasoned artist with over a decade of experience and can complete any size job. A sample of my work is available online at:

http://www.sm-graphics.com

On a side note I can vouch for the quality of Sean Tourangeau's work. He is a talented artist and I have personally worked from his concept art on a number of occasions... he and I could make a great team on this project.

Ray,

I am not an artist. I was, however, wondering if you are looking for any programmers for your project at this time? Please feel free to email me.

Thanks,
Chris
