Sr. Artist, Character Team

Description

Based in San Diego, Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) has an array of games in development at studios in Austin, TX, Denver, CO, Seattle, WA, and Taiwan including The Agency, Free Realms and DC Universe Online. These new titles are being designed to push the envelope of online entertainment quality, innovation and delivery.
SOE, the company responsible for the pioneering, global EverQuest® entertainment phenomenon, has developed and/or published a number of ground-breaking and genre-defining games, including EverQuest®, EverQuest®II, Star Wars Galaxies®, PlanetSide®, The Matrix Online™, EverQuest® Online Adventures, Champions of Norrath™, Untold Legends™ and Field Commander™.
SOE, which is now part of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI), began operations in 1995 as an online collaboration between Sony Pictures Entertainment and Sony Corporation of America.
SOE acquired and fully integrated Verant Interactive to further strengthen Sony’s position in multiplayer online gaming in May of 2000. Six years later, SOE became Sony Online Entertainment LLC, owned by Sony Pictures Digital and Sony Computer Entertainment America.
The Agency is currently searching for someone who is pretty handy with the polygons, and who sculpts graceful edge-loops with the ease of a modern Michelangelo. Now you're ready to kick it up a notch. We’re looking for top-tier artists to create extremely high-end character models and textures for a totally original IP.
As a senior character artist, you will be responsible for the creation of high-quality 3D art assets using Photoshop, Maya and the Unreal 3 game engine.

Primary Responsibilities:
Work closely with the Character Lead, Sr. Artists, and Animators to create consistently exceptional characters that perform well during game play.
Mentor junior artists as needed.

To apply: Submit your very best work, preferably annotated in some fashion, via CD, DVD, or website.
