Re: First post ever.
Thank you for the link. I know my traditional art skills are lacking, though in my defense that was a quick sketch for another class project during finals week, so don't hold me to it, but I am trying to improve in all aspects. The sad part is I work very hard daily to improve and it's just not showing. I graduate in the… -
Re: Bloodrayne - first trailer
Because any publicity is good publicity. Any way you can raise public awareness of an IP, bomb or blockbuster is good. You're forgetting that every person on this board is an educated consumer when it comes to games, otherwise they wouldn't be here. The rest of the world is far more tolerant to shlock and are the types… -
Re: Red Octane and Underground Development shut down
To buy up the Ip's those smaller companies own sometimes... But as far Kotick goes.. Remember, he's a symptom not the cause. Sad as it may be, our whole economic system allows Sociopaths (yes, people like him are sociopaths. Its just the veneer of his background education that allows them to escape this term) to handle the… -
Re: [Portfolio] Adam Fransson
hey man, cool work and nice website, my crits are about your spelling and grammer. try and be really careful with it, i remember listening to a presentation by epic about their recruitment policy, and they said if they so much as see a spelling mistake in your cv or cover letter, they throw it away there and there, as it… -
Re: Podcasts.
Not Podcasts, but same idea. I borrow books on cd from the library. I try to limit to genres I normally wouldn't consider relaxation. So many non-fiction things in history, economics, and science. Right now I'm going through Modern Scholar: The People and The Ballot: A History of American Party Politics. (This particular… -
Re: Art Periods/History
Huh? Why? Where's the disadvantage in knowing more? Even if you find the knowledge to be useless, at least you know what to avoid. Or maybe you mean that you usually shun official education in favor of exploring things yourself, in which case I'm right there with you. At any case, it seems to me to be a genuine problem now… -
Re: France VS EA
Sorry, guys but government involvement is always a sure way to kill all creativity. I am all for having gov money in education, pulic health & transportation and other basic needs, but nothing good will come out of the government supporting gaming companys. Exspecially when the money doesn't go to the small developers who… -
Re: Interview advice
It sounds like you have things pretty well handled all ready. A job in the industry doesn't require an education. It is however a stepping stone for some people. If they offer you a job and you are unable to work university in then take the job. If you need to you can finish school later. Experience in the industry is… -
Re: Freelance Hiring Expectations
Yeah, you'd best off (for that price range) looking for an art school student who is still in education, has a good skill set, and is interested in getting into games or film design. There are a few of them around, some free game mods have awesome concept artists - I'm sure they wouldn't say no to a little paid work on the… -
Re: Whats most commenly used and why (maya vs 3ds max)
My impression is that Maya is on the rise. It's very widely used in both educational institutions and in the gaming industry, at least here in Sweden. And it's pretty much standard in the film industry from what I've gathered after talking to a guy at Fox in LA. I can't talk for every studio of course, but whenever I see a…
