and yes Splash damage is located in London and from the 2 members from there ive met they seem to be some very very nice people...but you had best drink ale,none of that fosters crap .
There is also a sony and EA studio that I know of in London,I presume ya don't wanna work there but oh well.
failing a gaming job in London I beg you to come and do some lectures and stuff and look into that side of things,we really need more very good artists to do thasort of thing in this country....failing that just come and give me some hints and tips .
I've always been a big fan of your work... shame you're not coming to Paris, and that we're not hiring character artist, because I'd have picked you up on board in a second
Er, I just had to say, honestly... forget coming to London UK to work, unless A) You don`t mind working on tripe You`re content and able to live earning less than a bus driver C)You`re a wave short of an ocean.
There`s lots of post-production still, but the money has taken a big nose dive there aswell.
I thought about Turbine for a bit... Did you know I was art director on one of the many middle earth online games before it sifted to Turbine? Spent a lot of time working with Derek who used to be the designer.
aaaaanyway... My missus has England set in her heart.
You could maybe try to sneak into Rockstar North, in Edinburgh. It's a great city, better than London IMHO, and I'm sure your "missus" could cope with Scotland instead of England, right?
If its England/scotland/Uk in general maybe this link will help (linked from Jim jaggers website thanks man!!) these are pretty much the biggest developers in the UK...though SplashD isn't listed.
