Why would you want to move to china? Thats very strange to even hear that. But im very biased when it comes to the chinese. In my eyes the chinese are slowly killing the game industry for american artists. I mean, i guess money is money and experience is experience, atleast you would be making game art, something you wont…
hah! are you talking about America? If you speak the language I'd put that on my resume, I think that would be a gold star with more companies using Chinese outsourcing studios
They are right, this could be a new type of scam. Since I assume they arent asking for money for you for some odd purpose. Could it be a Shanghaiing of sorts? Though the Chinese government keeps pretty type tabs on foreign workers, so even if you find yourself out on the street, you can always looks forward to being…
This is a fascinating thread! Someone asked already, but i'll re-ask it just in case: Do you speak chinese and are you familiar with chinese culture? Your resume says you're American born and bred, and if you haven't lived overseas before I would be careful about making such a commitment. My GF's family runs a non-profit…
Do you know the language? I really wouldn't travel to a place where you will be socially isolated and unable to easily converse with police and government officials if something goes awry.

In animation it wasn't uncommon for outsourcing studios to hire experienced (or even semi experienced ) workers to use as leads and supervisors to try and shore up the local labor. If they are willing to pay your…
ah... hi man. my suggestion is " DO NOT " most chinese game company focus on MMO game market and few on outsourcing . some studio is cool,but most are tuly nightmare. most company,which make big money on the mmo market,they don't have any AAA title. and for junior artist they don't offer good salary. even the live cost is…
Long story short, I have a potential job offer to work as a 3D artist in Beijing, China. Even if it doesn't go through, I would still like to know a few things... And I know of a few of ya that are in the area and hopefully would be able to help me. A little background about me, for reference: I finished college just over…
I am more or less familiar with the culture and language since I grew up in a Chinese/Taiwanese household here in the States. And I am beginning to realize that it might be better to visit China for a vacation as opposed to working and living there. The company in question seems legit, but I'm not worried about that at…
