Montreal Quebec GF, CA Ubisoft Full time
Job Description

As a Lead Character Modeller at Ubi MTL, you'll guide the characters team on the project. You’ll oversee and support a talented team of character modellers in transforming concept designs into the defining people, creatures, and animals that live within our worlds.

You’re a well-rounded team ambassador: an expert communicator, collaboration encourager, and not to mention a skilled artist. You understand the character creation process along with its (at times, many) technical and artistic constraints. You’re able to step in to coach your team, find solutions to setbacks, and deliver feedback with confidence.

What you’ll do

  • Collaborate with other art leads and the art director to discuss and develop the game vision.
  • Coordinate and motivate character modellers as they develop and polish their character art throughout the 3D pipeline.
  • Organize and run regular team meetings to assign tasks, establish priorities, discuss progress, etc.
  • Balance artistic aspects with technical constraints, maintaining quality and performance standards (poly count, memory, etc.).
  • Review integrated work, ensuring it’s aligned with the artistic direction and can animate well.
  • Provide mentorship and constructive feedback to develop a consistent, quality visual style.
  • Stay up to date on best practices to keep up with the industry.
  • Participate in recruitment to build and grow your character modelling team.
Qualifications

What you bring

  • A college diploma in 3D Modelling, Fine Art, or equivalent (undergraduate degree an asset)
  • At least 5 years of experience in modelling, texturing, or other relevant experience (leadership an asset)
  • Knowledge of 2D art tools (e.g. Photoshop) and 3D software (3DS Max, Maya, Substance Painter, Marvelous Designer, and ZBrush)
  • Solid understanding of topology, materials, textures, proportion, and anatomy + animation and game limitations
  • Excellent mentorship, communication, organization, time management, interpersonal, and presentation skills
  • Flexibility and a whole lot of resourcefulness
  • A highly collaborative, creative, and empathetic spirit
  • A super sharp, trained eye for detail

What to send our way

  • Your CV highlighting your education, experience, skills, and any games shipped
  • A portfolio of your best 3D work (attach images or send us a link to your personal website or online portfolio)
