... Yeah, just realized how bad of examples those were <_<" But Ballroom Instructor was where I came from >_>" So, with same logic, those higher ups should also earn less. Same with movie directors and producer. They are making kick ass robots smashing each others and doomday's device firing shots! It's so much fun. They…
No one has said that at all. Your portfolio doesn't get 30 seconds because they need to hire people as fast as possible. Your portfolio only gets thirty seconds because as an art director they probably have a thousand things to do today and that's all the time they can afford when they have 30 or 40 portfolios on top of…
Do a google search of "Your site repels jobs" and you'll come across a game website article about why HR people throw away your site before getting to the art. The guy who wrote it works for a game company, so he knows what he's talking about. http://www.thejonjones.com/2005/10/07/your-portfolio-repels-jobs/ link for the…
Just pre-ordered at a bargain £26.99, for the limited edition! :D For me, getting a game on release day adds to the excitement of the product so i am more than happy to wait for March 25th and then spend xx hrs playing it through to completion :D As for the DRM Master Key, I don't know much about that sort of thing. Is it…
This will be a great addition to the alien scene! Showing off smaller props sure is great, but the big scenes are the ones for the HR people and costumers, who maybe don't know a lot about production. There you will get the "awwwww niiice" thoughts. :D What I mean is: Simple Props are very often seen in portfolios, because…
Id say human is the better way to go as most people can reference with it. My point is mainly about the back and forth, interaction, reference and reflection, conscious or subconscious, that the viewer has to have in order to create some sort of connection to the monster. From there you can evolve.... I think of the…
If nothing else, having a bit of traditional art in your portfolio is a good way of standing out from the crowd. You might have a load of guys with schmick modelling skills all arrive at the same time, but the Art HR typed guy will remember the artist with the 6 foot tall multi-part ceramic wall fountain in his portfolio.…
UPDATE 1 HR LATER Set MD to use 'Centimeters' instead of 'Millimeters'... could this have been the problem all along? MD (CM) > MAYA (CM) With MD set to CM and Maya at CM, the import seems to be the same as at FBX, insofar as the UV's showing at 1.1 instead of 0 on the U + V axis, but that can be fixed by a simple UV…
Hahaha ace, im gonna love it when I move to the poor US I`l probaly take a detour to Canada 1st it seems, cheers Malcolm 'oh yeah, you wanna examine my tool eh?! I'm calling HR!'. Daz, thats a bloody shame ^^ I think il probaly end up being sued sometime or other if I move the US 1st ;(
Nice to hear that it went well. Though arriving late is one of the bad remarks on how seriously you want this job. This part sounds like the HR keep you under consideration and see what other intervieweez bring to him. I am pretty sure it'll go fine as well since he gave you a good solid clue about getting the job. Will…
