Kaftan and Nightshape

Recommended Posts

To me, it seemed more like anyone with any brains worked on FNV leaving Alpha Protocol to whichever primate was free at the time. I certainly dont understand whats supposed to be clever about it, its thouroughly brainless from start to finish. Like someone just bought a bunch of 24 and Alias DVD's and tried to cut&pste together something interesting.

 

Is it because you felt you could have done just as poor of a job?

I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. 

Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.

Can you bitter bickering couple have a talk elsewhere? It's getting annoying to read for anyone who's not you.

 

FINE! I'll stop picking on him...

Collateral damage Kaftan, we're obviously disturbing the natives.

 

I'm sure you would have been excellent and adding more "Yellow" to Alpha Protocol. Remeber folks, yellow isn't an art direction its just crap.

 

Now I know that the amount of work in Sweden is minimal... Well actually next to none, but have you really seriously looked for a job, I'm sure there are some iPhone developers that would pay you a wage. Maybe even a couple of gameboy or PSP dev's, have you thought about the joys of "Environment Art", and the fate that will lead you upon.

 

You should atleast join a modding team, and stop being so slack.

Id rather work in advertising than doing casual games for iGays. And I did have a look at a sweet studio, but like:

 

-I heard you want dudes who do sweet guns and ****?

-Word.

-So give me a job then?

-Nah, we only steal employees from the other two companies. You could have rabies for all we know.

-I totally do not have rabies.

-Yeah well, go work at dice for five years so we know for sure.

-But they're only hiring people form this place and the other place?

-Yup, rabies-free labour, bro.

-Fine!

Yeah, they wouldn't let you in through the front door because you've got rabies... This is normal, as you're Swedish.

 

Are you even willing to leave Sweden? If you're good, you should be able to find something.

 

Sometimes you have to let your principles slide, I mean seriously, how much professional art experience do you have, be it movies, games, tv... Advertising?

 

Lower ye standards a little, nobody walks in on a project straight off the street.

The alpha male stalks the jungle, aware that any sign of weakness, any sign of compassion risks the authority upon which his life and that of his clan rests. He circles his prey slowly, making quick, surreptitious swipes before returning to his prowl...

I'm sorry but...What the Hell are you talking about! :lol:

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

That's right Kaften, don't address my point... Did I ever have a point?

 

 

I think you were suggesting getting into casual game development. Which might be helpful, or not. All studios have "minimum of two years experience working on AAA title"

I had no issue's because I constantly blow them away with my awesome. I've never specialised which makes me very flexible, I'm basically a generalist, with a slant towards rendering, and systems coding.

 

I'd gone the extra mile, developed alot of stuff on my own, and worked at Canalside Studio's for a year - I still code stuff in my spare time, are you still doing art? Building an awesome portfolio?

 

I also know that while I was at codies, they hired one environment artist who was a junior (so it does happen). The thing about artwork is that alot can end up outsourced nowaday's, with some guys cleaning it up when it comes back from the outsourced hell hole. This is except for specifics, such as car, weapon, and character art, lets face it, they're so few jobs in those specific area's that you've got to be really good. Hell the weapon lead on Bodycount worked on Black, and Bad Company, and that was after spending years of his life working at Criterion.

 

Most artists end up modelling buildings, crates, and rocks... Some of them get the joys of props. If you can show technical knowledge of how 3D Studio Max, or Maya work then that can only help.

 

The thing is, there are jobs out there, its just smaller developers, hell, the Hello Games guys are just four people, and Joe Danger is an excellent game that's done very well. A good small studio could really set you up skills wise for life.

 

I'm lucky, but I sure had to bust my balls to get where I am, and I'll have to keep doing that to get where I want to be.

 

What kinds of jobs have you been applying for?
