Recent 3D Art Graduate - Career Advice/Guidance Wanted

Title explains the current situation. 3 months out of a university with a Bachelors in Computer Game Design in the states. Struggling to find employment, job… -
Re: Why do companies keep refreshing advertisements for positions that aren't available for employment
So I made this topic based on a more general perspective based on the majority of my experience so far. (others have had it much much worse) Like I am finding freelance work, its only that some of the AAA industry in Montreal and Toronto has been pretty challenging to even get in touch with and I was wondering if that was… -
Re: How to inspire artists to learn?
On top of the issue of the previous lead being an ass, there seems to be quite a lot at play here. Dustin has a lot of great points. Since a lot of ground has been covered already I'll just toss in a few remarks and questions. - Where is the Art Director in this story ? While Art Leads do play a huge role in the visual… -
Re: BM82 - this is for you!
Im really blown away by this. Thank you so much guys! You have no idea what this means, because it can be a challenge to stay optimistic at times like these.

Re: Camera for taking references to sell them online

So now that we've arbitrarily changed the name of a gloss map to a roughness map (even though they do the same thing) we should flip the content as well? I think people get far too caught up in what the input names are, what you name your inputs, weather its… -
Re: Custom Animations Accepted?
I think it has more to do with your latter point, I hightly doubt it has to do with that the fact that people are already doing it. I'm doing animations without guidelines which means I could be doing it totally wrong, wasting my time, and the animations I do were never even considered. At least guidelines set in stone a… -

Re: UTMC - MidTech - Drain / Vent
Time to update. As I ponder over the idea of filling the lower area with water I did a really quick and dirty attempt of exploring this idea. Are you ready for another huge fork in the road in terms of theme direction and design? After thinking about the drain I started messing around in Sketchup for a while and made a…
