[Paid] Additional Fantasy CG & Background Artists Wanted

#1 Post by ProjectTrinity »

WE NEED ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND ARTISTS!

The original background artist had to step down to pave way for other life obligations. So we're looking at a pile of digital Kickstarter cash with no clear future owner. Additionally, we're having a Stretch Goal campaign where the art budget is most certain to grow even more than it currently is. Because of this, we're looking for background artists that can make very clean, crisp, and beautiful fantasy environments.We will be attaching an example of that below from our previous artist. (We'll add more these coming days.) For every image, we'll be needing layered .PSDs so our vfx artist can create animated backgrounds. (Clouds, objects that obviously need movement like fans, and lights, ect.) Artists that (happen to) have consistent style and quality with other BG artists we hire will be favored. Depending on how many artists we get, you could get 20 to 70 BGs, with the game scheduled to release late 2018

WE NEED A CG ARTIST [NSFW & Violence!]

Are you someone who can look at the character art in the above example (Or the Kickstarter page, or the trailer link) and know you can make great CGs for many of the important scenes? Then golly do we need you! You'll be needing to create high quality CGs with a great sense of cinematic lighting and poses that range from dynamic to intimate. You'll also need to be completely comfortable drawing literally anything. (You won't be drawing 'literally anything', but we also don't want any unexpected limits. Essentially, if you are comfortable with drawing any frame of "Game of Thrones", you'll be good here.) Just like the BG artists, we'll be needing your a PSD with various elements of your image in separate layers. (Objects that tend to move, like fans, lights, clouds, ect.) This will allow the vfx artist to offer some more dynamic movements to some images.

WE DO NOT NEED A SPRITE ARTIST

I repeat, we do not need a sprite artist! She fully intends to stick around with the team for Dhaj knows how long, bless her soul. The CG artist will allow her to focus on just the sprites and not have to worry about the more dynamic shots.

BUDGET

This is a commercial game heading towards Steam late 2018. Our art budget is a mix of Kickstarter funds and commission funds. In other words, put whatever price you deem fit. We will be the artists that best hit the quality vs. price equilibrium across 3/4 sites, but don't let that deter you from choosing rates you are most comfortable with. We won't be trying to negotiate for a lower price

THE IMPORTANT TECHNICAL INFORMATION

-Professional fortitude is a must (Constant communication and updates. Respectable turnaround time.)
-Commercial Use (Indie: Steam, PC, Mac)
-Please do not post project assets/art anywhere without permission. (Spoilers and whatnot.)
-No Royalties (contact us if you want to negotiate your rates for royalties)
-BGs and CGs need to be 1920x1080
-Each image needs a .png and a layered .PSD
-Trial commissions pay 50% upfront, and 50% after the work is complete
-Official art for the game will be paid in bulk and in advance, with contract. Deadlines included in contract. (You can set your own output rate. But it has to stay consistent)
-If you want to avoid contracts, the option to get paid only after an image is done is fine. (But not ideal to most artists.)

WHAT TO DO:

Fill out the form below and email us at symphonycometh@live.com . You will receive a followup email from TeamProjectTrinity if you're a good fit. If you would like to reach us ASAP and avoid the form filling stage, add me on Skype (symphonycometh). Do NOT private message me! I may not get to it on time before we start hiring people.

The Form:

Full Name / Username
: Your username you go by online, and your real name if you're going the contract route.
Portfolio Link: Where most of your most recent art is. The images the team will have in mind most.
Max Cost of 1 BG: This is the rate we'll be comparing other rates to. Charge enough to where you won't feel cheated for drawing a very complex environment.
Cost For Variations: Day / Night / Weather
Max Cost of 1 CG: This is the rate we'll be comparing other rates to. Charge enough to where you won't feel cheated for drawing up to 8 characters with a detailed environment.
Turnaround Time: How long it'll take to complete one image. Although speed is a major factor, you'll still want to place down your maximum length to ensure you meet deadlines.
Royalties Desired: Yes/No/Don't Know
Resume: Past projects you've worked on that proves your reliability/track record. (We will be contacting former employers!)
Questions & Concerns: I can never seem to answer everything in one go. This is your chance to clear up any concerns or ask about my own reliability, if you didn't check already.
Attach Samples In Email

We'll be hiring a few folks immediately since we'd like some new art assets for the Stretch Goal campaign, so if you're interested, definitely email sooner than later! We'll be closing this thread April 2nd! And remember, emails and Skype are my preferred method of responding! Looking forward to hearing from you all!
