[UNPAID] Third Dimension Studio Seeking Concept Artists
by Jeff Severson · in Jobs · 05/14/2010 (12:21 pm) · 0 replies
Greetings,
Third Dimension Studio is currently seeking one or two skilled concept artists looking to cut their teeth and work on a non-commercial game project called Darkness. This project is still in its infancy stages. The overall style needs to be conceptualized before any 3D assets are created. This a non-paying project and the artist(s) will get full credit and rights to their own work to showcase in their portfolio.
Third Dimension Studio is currently seeking the following:
Character Concept Artist:
Responsible for creating character and creature concept art for Darkness. Must be able to thumbnail rough concepts for review as well as digitally paint the final approved sketch. The horror genre must be reflected in the artists style. If you have a passion for creating dark, disturbing, grotesque characters and creatures then Third Dimension would like to chat with you!
Environment Concept Artist:
Responsible for conceptualizing environments and level layouts for Darkness. Must be able to thumbnail rough concepts for review as well as digitally paint the final approved sketches. Third Dimension is looking for someone who has a passion for conceptualizing dark and gritty environments.
All interested candidates please send a link to your online portfolio for review to: jeff_severson@msn.com
Once a confidentiality agreement has been signed I will provide a link, and password to a private forum that contains all the information needed to get started.
I'm currently unable to compensate artists for their hard work and will not make promises of future royalties at this time. My ultimate goal is to get a one level demo working in UDK with all of the gameplay, art, coding, and features which can then be pitched to potential publishers. At that time anyone involved with the project will be approached for a larger commitment.
I thank you for your time and patience.
Sincerely,
Jeff Severson

Game Synopsis
The year is 2050. Ten years ago an asteroid roughly one mile wide struck the planet earth setting off a chain of catastrophic events and unleashing a deadly alien virus. The asteroid sent so much dust into the atmosphere that it cut off sunlight, lowered temperatures worldwide and killed off most plants and species. Not only does the human race face extinction due to the drastic environmental changes, but a blood born tissue altering virus is transforming people and animals into flesh hungry monstrosities.
Darkness is a futuristic sci-fi action horror FPS game with RPG elements set in the distant future. The player starts out in a settlement deep within the New York City subway system. The settlement is constantly being attacked by swarms of hideous monsters who are hungry for human flesh. The player must find the main source of the monsters and destroy it before the entire settlement is wiped out.
Our Plan of Attack
Darkness will be a single-player FPS that has some RPG elements. A one level demo will be built which showcases the story, gameplay and technology. If Third Dimension Studio receives monetary support via public donations, or publisher then we will enter the production phase of development and finish the game.
Darkness is not a funded project and therefore Third Dimension Studio is unable to compensate artists, designers, coders, etc. for their hard work nor can we make promises of future profit sharing from the game. If you would like to help us make a great game, gain experience, or share your fresh ideas we welcome you!
Here's a link to the forum. It's still a work in progress. The private forums are invisible to the general public:http://www.thirddimensionstudio.com/orion/phpBB3
