Re: Is a highschool education needed ?
I dropped out of highschool/secondary school. I highly recommend getting the GED, and ideally going to college to get at least a bachelors. This will allow you to work abroad easier as employers in other countries need a reason to justify hiring you over locals. -
We're hiring: TECHNICAL ARTIST / 3D Generalist Remote
With a small and dedicated team, we are currently working on a first-person tactical co-op game using Unreal Engine 5.

Re: WIP - Portfolio piece - Feedback
Hi! Very helpful to have those references. I would say in both of those images the corridor leads towards a more open room, with light coming in from above. This gives some focal points and makes corridor detail silhouette against that lit area. I don't know do this best in Unreal, from what I remember there are quite a… -

Re: Canada - the promised land!
I know that Montreal is strange in regards to relocation.

I think a few Senior positions they might consider relocating someone from… -
Re: Studios' mindset when hiring overseas: Portfolio or Network?

Re: Is it really worth persuing a career in Art/CG?
Please no outsourcer angst again. There will always be local game studios, just as outsourcing to India didn't wipe out all local IT companies. Just replace the word outsourcer with freelancer and you'll see how ridiculous this is. I'm sure there's more 3D freelancers in the world than artists working in outsourcing… -
Re: What's the deal with all the remote jobs?
Another factor. Big companies have applied for tax credits from municipalities where they rented office space in large multi-year leases. These contracts usually stipulate a certain percentage of occupancy before the tax breaks are paid out. This is ostensibly to improve the local economy, with these occupant workers… -
