Re: Massive outsourcing on Uncharted 3, industry standard?
yup, was us on the credits :) From the amount of high profile studios we deal with, I'd say outsourcing is fairly common. We got like 8 of the 10 top US publishers and their studios as clients, and we're now expanding to 3D for feature film and TV, having worked on Transformers, Rango and some other movies. We're close to… -
Re: My Art
I had a look at your portfolio and the first thing I would do is pin down your specailty. Character, enviroment or props. Pick one and focus on that.

Re: Can anyone recommend a good environment concept artist
Yes itsbeen interesting,we have been fortunate in that we have had good management who has not been afraid to go to the publisher and let them know if a request is too unreasonable in terms of time and manpower.

Re: Online Identities Versus Real Life: Why Employers should/cannot ask for the other.
I understand what a lot of you are saying, but there is still one thing that throws me off. Most of the people I know, including myself, have a personal and a professional demeanor.

Re: Freeware game crew needs animators, modelers and..
It's just a forum link. How about: Design documents lead to concept artists, concept artists lead to modelers, modelers lead to texture artists, and texture artists lead to ?

Re: Favorite memories or experiences working in the industry
Halo Reach polish complete. Was an amazing night. At 12am we hit the deadline, popped champagne, all the envio guys put on silly hats and everyone left at the studio went down to the "Bungie Bar".
