Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
Thanks for sharing your experience, when it comes to interviews and what to wear, I stick to formal casuals (long sleeve shirt, jeans, trousers and shoes) and in doing so have encountered interviewers in shorts, t shirts, hoodies and flip flops while sitted on a gym ball. Some studios do have dress codes for interviews so… -
Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
I'm not bypssing having to develop my own skill in favor of using tools and automated workflows. I chose to refine my character art creation process because I had the drive to be better. Just because I use the tools doesn't mean that I lack anatomy knowledge. If anything finding ways to patch any holes using relevant… -

"Character creator comes with a cell shading solution and there are a few approaches to cell shading in Unreal 5 and Blender which can create visuals comparable to Arc System". The Arcsys look (and that of modern cel shaded models in general) 99% come from the way the assets are authored (very specific modeling, UVs,… -

"I'm sure the course would be very useful in creating sculptures. I'm not firmly convinced in my assessment, but looking at reviews from people having taken the course, I can't say that it would give me skills that I could apply directly to what I need to get a job at the studio I have the best chance of being hired at." I… -

The tool can be an asset to fixing these, here is where you can buy a license. There are many great tutorials on using it through Michael Pavlovich https://www.reallusion.com/character-creator/ You may need to purchase a morph pack that targets specific musculature if you want to be really precise. Certainly working with… -

They are a mix of sources, some were on linkedin from artists at studios I was applying to. They were the more general critiques, like - Your portfolio is too old - This is student work - Did you just graduate? - Your work is just not good enough in general. I termed them unconventional since they didn't lead to more… -
Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
Thanks! I've been looking to adapt the guity gear style of cell shading. Character creator comes with a cell shading solution and there are a few approaches to cell shading in Unreal 5 and Blender which can create visuals comparable to Arc System Its lower priority since I don't know of any studio local to where I am that… -
Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
I"m seeing it as more about which skills to prioritise. I'm not currently with EA, I hope to be a part of the studio again and I am also considering other studios though I'm still not entirely convinced if doing that particular course would be the deciding factor in my getting hired. In the end its going to come down to… -
Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
Oh totally, it is why I am upgrading each piece. I'm also being mindful that some pieces will have to be set aside depending on how I feel about the upgrade, meaning I'll continue to work on them more and not include them just yet. I've yet to curate my portfolio, but it will likely have the upgraded Samurai (zhou yu) and… -
Re: Uncoventional porfolio criticism
I don't mean to be rude, but....Is it really okay that most of the time you talk about this workflow, and tools to automate stuff, it just seems to be tech to bypass having to develop your own skill? If it works in work, it works in work, but that aside, do you not have the drive to just be better, yourself, regardless of…
