Managing creative talent is a creative talent all its own. As art manager, you’ll be responsible for the management of the World of Warcraft art and animation team, working with production on scheduling and tasking, and the overall growth and improvement of the art department—leveling up, as it were. We’d love to see a…
Can you craft a fortress fit for a warrior king? A palace for the damned? Caverns of doom and mines of untold riches? From the depths of Molten Core to the terrors of Ice Crown Citadel, WoW dungeons offer adventure and glory to the intrepid heroes of Azeroth. The ideal senior dungeon environment artist can either be 2D or…
More so talking about the environment / texture style Daz, I didn't mean to sound like an ass though man. But I mean... I'm not far off from saying it's sharing some of the style, they may have put a more darker touch on it, but you can take some of the environment pieces from those screens (and tile sets) and place it…
Can you craft a fortress fit for a warrior king? A palace for the damned? Caverns of doom and mines of untold riches? From the depths of Molten Core to the terrors of Ice Crown Citadel, World of Warcraft (WoW) dungeons offer adventure and glory to the intrepid heroes of Azeroth. As a senior artist on the dungeon team, your…
This isn't addressed at me but I'll bite. First of all the Activision partnership is juts a single biproduct of the larger looming "problem", the ridiculous success of WoW. By any corporate or monetary standard, the millions of dollars WoW brings in a month isn't a "problem", but for fans of the original Blizzard catalog…
hey there! sweet stuff so far. enjoying the anatomy a lot here, could be sharper/refined but love the direction on the hardsurface i guess its mostly detailled blockout. but i feel like its a bit too soft-ish for blizzard type of work. it has this rubbery feel to it, edge quality is all over the place, some areas are very…
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] TGZ: I think it should be doable to fit multiple binaries for different OSes on one DVD (as has been done with e.g. UT2004). Multiple versions of any product are economically ineffective, it's cheapest to have one unified product that everyone buys. [/ QUOTE ] Blizzard games use PC/MAC CD's but they are…
If you don't live in the USA, you'd have to factor that into your decision given the likelihood of a company sponsoring you for a work visa may not be Blizzard at the beginning. I'm not sure of any official courses online or in North America that focus specifically on the Blizzard Art style, but there are several resources…
If you're interested in Blzzard or Riot then I guess you answered your question. I look at Blizzard work as inspiration and the quality I'm aiming for, but I wouldnt want to work there. There's lots of other studios and it doesnt have to be AAA. I think you got higher chance getting hired as a prop artist (realistic),…
meh, I am pretty sure its Activion's idea not Blizzard's. If it was Blizzard, they would send out the 3 race altogather in one game single and multiplayer, and the expension would follow. This act is because: -Activition knows how to make more money out of Blizzard by changing their market strategy from where they stand in…
