Hiring FX aritsts for next-gen console games

[macton]

Hi everyone!

Some of you may not know that my real job is making video games for consoles (PS3/XBOX360) at High Moon Studios.

I work closely with the FX artists to generate particle effects and shaders for our games.

Recently we were discussing the qualities of a good FX artist and it occured to me that there is quite a lot of overlap in the skillset between a good Moho artist and a good FX artist. The details of the technologies we use can be taught, it´s the animation skills and having that "artists eye" that we are looking for.

We have several full-time openings, from Junior to Senior level, and if you are interested, please send your resume (CV) and your work samples to: macton@highmoonstudios.com (or you can PM me here.)

We are located in Carlsbad, CA, which is just north of San Diego.

Mike.
