Arttu Maki - Level Designer

[ElectroSheep]

":2rnpteak]He made the level, level became popular, valve contacted Arttu, valve paid him, and released the level in an official update.

Yeah. This.

Same for me so Thanks for the answer.

That's not really contract work then

p.s. I really like fastlane and played it alot before it was official

I like your CV, but that doesn't actually cover what I was refering to. Your actual designs havent been explained. The process you took to get to the finished result isnt explained. Even if its a rough overview explaining the layout.

There are two types of contracts you can sign in this case.

1. You sign a release of your personal IP. Valve buys your content.

2. You sign a task based contract where Valve wants you to build something and then buys the IP.

Both of these are perfectly described as contract work.

nice work, hate the flash-like popup for viewing images. just let me click a link and open up a page of images, right now each image loads slowly as fuck because of the viewer and i am limited to looking at one thing at a time instead of opening things in a new tab.

i'm sure it'll get you a job wherever you apply but fucks sake it's annoying to navigate.

It's not flash but I agree, it's tad slow. Need to tweak it.

And thanks

edit: it's much faster now

Nice portfolio !

I guess you use lightbox ? Personaly I prefer shadowbox because with lightbox you can't do "right click > show the image".

Great folio. Quality work coming out the ass. Only thing I'd complain about like a bitch is that it's chock a block with TF2 maps. I'm bored of TF2!

Yeah Lightbox. I need to check out shadowbox. Thanks for the tip

I used FancyBox for mine, which I'm really pleased with. It's got right click support, mousewheel scrolling, and totally customizable everything. I've got images, embedded HD youtube videos, and embedded text files all tied through the same interface. I recommend it

Great portfolio, too!

And thanks for the tip too, I need to check these out. I think I'm still using some ancient version of Lightbox

Love your work man. Fastlane is one of my favorite TF2 maps.

I kinda prefer your old portfolio though. It looked more stylish.

I think your portfolio would look more stylish if you dropped the rounded corners everywhere and made it exactly like your resume btw, it looks fantastic!!

Your CV needs a photo of you. It helps a lot
