  • Create lit and original concepts that support the game's positioning with the various project teams.
  • Communicate expectations to the production team assigned to the mandate and ensure the quality and content of the ambiances, sets, characters, narration, etc. using visual references and documents that describe the artistic direction.
  • Follow up and validate the team's finished work so the elements produced are in line with the initial brief and the game's vision, and ensure that the quality is respected.
  • Work directly with the project director and artists.
  • Produce documents such as GAP (Game Artistic Personality), brief, guide style.
QualificationsWhat you bring
  • Around 10 years of UI, visual design, branding, or art direction experience (in the video game industry, a huge plus) or other relevant experience.
  • A degree in Graphic Design, Communications, Multimedia, or equivalent.
  • An understanding of art fundamentals and artistic culture.
  • In-depth knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite, Photoshop, and 3D software (e.g. 3DS Max).
  • The ability to give constructive feedback and to convey an artistic direction + make it a shared goal.
  • A highly creative, collaborative, and innovative spirit.
  • Open-mindedness: you’re receptive to new ideas and fresh perspectives.
  • Solid interpersonal and presentation skills.
  • Effective cross-departmental communication: you have the know-how to communicate with tech and creative teams alike.
  • A willingness to roll up your sleeves to get the job done
What to send our way
  • Your CV, highlighting your experience, education, and skills.
  • A portfolio of your best work (attach images or send us a link to your personal website or online portfolio).
