- Clear understanding and value of art team roles in the player experience.
- Experience as a product-level Art Director in a game studio with a deep understanding of art disciplines and their workflows.
- Strong understanding of art fundamentals, multiple art styles, anatomy, appeal, and storytelling.
- Experience supporting and directing artists across multiple disciplines.
- The ability to adapt to and innovate on new styles and techniques.
- Strong collaborative nature to partner with art directors, other discipline leads, and production.
- Strong leadership skills, with an expectation to guide large teams toward a shared vision.
