Title: [$$$] Starr Mazer: Environment Pixel Artist [CLOSED]
Post by: PixelPiledriver on May 03, 2016, 12:26:16 am
Starr Mazer is expanding its team!

http://www.starrmazer.com/
http://www.starrmazer.com/dsp/

We are looking for a COOL person to fit in as the ENVIRONMENT PIXEL ARTIST. --> production pixel work, not concept.
I can do environments, but it is not my forte.
My time is much better spent in characters, animation and general pixel work.
We need someone that is HAPPY to do backdrops, not just able.
I'm sure you will get to do other things as well, but that will the bulk of the load for you to pull.

Assuming all is well and we build a nice relationship, this will evolve into a full time, 5 days a week, teamwork based poisition. --> some patience is needed, getting you in will take time, that's why we are starting to look NOW.
You would be the 3rd artist on the team, and we will form a Triangle of Pixel Power and shoot into space together. --> whoooosh
If you currently have other large time comitments, this is probably not the job for you.
And let it be known: we are a rowdy bunch, so be prepared for that. --> not a joke
I cannot stress enough that it is most important to us to work with a cool team wise person that can deal with team conflict, not just the best artist ever. --> bring your pixel skills too of course

I'll be hitting up some of the pixel artists I know personally, but I want to give others I don't know a chance as well.

If you are interested contact me at: PixelPiledriver@gmail.com
Put: [ENVIROMENT ARTIST] or [ENVIRONMENT PIXEL ARTIST FOR STARR MAZER] or something like that in the subject line so it stands out.
Include some relevant info and I'll hit you back.

Thanks!

If this one is still available I do have a question about it.

What style of environments are you looking for? i.e. Overhead, side view, heavily detailed, cartoonish, etc.

Starr Mazer is once again looking for a new team member!

http://www.starrmazer.com/
http://www.starrmazer.com/dsp/

The position for Environment Pixel Artist is open.
This is a paid full time position.

What we are looking for in YOU
--------------------------------

+ Love of games
We love them!

+ Love of pixel art
We love that too!

+ Love of environments
A humble home warms the heart.
A busy street flourishes with life.
An abandoned outpost holds a secret.
You'll be building locations that exude mood and set the stage for action to happen.

+ Able to make it to meetings
We have short Stand Up meetings every weekday at Noon.
They involve each per person stating:
"What I did yesterday, What I will do today".
And then some friendly shit talking.
This is the chance for everyone to connect, stay in the loop, pitch thoughts to the group, etc.

+ Be part of team based creative development
We communicate a lot.
Edit each other's work.
Explore variations.
Mutate ideas.
Combine personal strengths.
We need you to be flexible, open minded, and willing to give/receive critique.
First attempts are rarely final so stay open to changes.

+ Able to improvise
Sometimes you won't have enough information.
Sometimes things don't work.
In these situations we need you to fill voids and be creative.

+ Willing to go the extra mile
We want you to want it!
Extra hours are not mandatory.
But the whole team puts in a lot of overtime.

+ Local is a plus
We are based in Seattle, WA USA.
Most of the team is here.
Being able to meet up in person is great.
THIS IS NOT REQUIRED.


How to apply
--------------
Email me at PixelPiledriver@gmail.com
Tag the subject line with something that stands out so I don't miss it.
Include some info about yourself, a portfolio link, and whatever you think is relevant.
I'll hit you back with more details and we'll go from there.

Thanks!
