Crytek - Level Art, Lighting and FX positions

Hey there guys,

I am currently trying to find a good Level Artist to integrate the team for the next project, we are also in need of a Lighting Artist, and Particle Artist.

You will be working next to the Art Director and you’ll be working with the small group in charge of the overall artistic look of the game. That being said, I’m looking for people with experience in these fields or that can provide me with good samples of work and expertise.

Level Artist:

Level Artists biggest forte are good eye for detail and composition, and knowing the tech well to achieve this.

Knowing a 3D package is a huge plus (Especially 3DsMax) and basic texturing skills. (Photoshop)

You will be art passing levels, therefore good artistic knowledge and practice (such as color theory and lighting) is important.

If you are a Lighting Artist or Particle Artist and would like to join this talented group making the next Crytek game, PM me and I’ll redirect you to the right person.

Thank you,

Cheers

HP
