Looking for a folio review.

Moonlight604 · Oct 2018

Hi all,

I am looking to get my folio reviewed and need some direction on what to do to get a Jr Environment artist job (a prop artist role is something I'd really want).

after a couple years of self learning and remaking my folio time and time again, words can't quite describe the overall feeling of hopelessness of having applications go unanswered/rejected time and time again.

thanks.

Hello Adam!
I'm not sure if anyone needs this information in resume. This is not 3d related I guess.

This is strange. Are you looking for full-time job in your city only? Or you can work remotely in any company?
I was looking for a job last year and I made this list of employers. Visit this sites. Maybe they're hiring now.

I think your work is pretty good. If you're looking for an Env Artist position, then you need more environments in your folio. I notice you're also in Vancouver. I had a very hard time getting another job after my first Jr Env position ended. I ended up applying outside of BC which got me hired and I've been employed ever since. So, if you're up for relocation, I'd suggest to try applying in Montreal and Toronto.

Ok thanks. I live in New Brunswick now so I've applied to every 3D game studio in Montreal, I guess I will try Ottawa and Toronto, aswell as a few of those studios previously posted.
