Unveil Games is a small but fully funded and growing company that builds social network games for Facebook. Our first game, TrafficKing, is currently in beta and we are looking for some experienced individuals that can help us extend that game and build even more. We understand how critical your role is in creating fun, compelling experiences for our players, and that when artists and software developers (or any creative folk, for that matter) have a chance to take pride in their work it can shine through as a quality product.

Description:
Unveil Games is looking for 2D artists to work with us at our Los Angeles offices.

The 2D Artist will work with the Art Director and Producer creating assets that drive the visual identity of the game. This Artist will also create final in-game artwork and placeholder artwork needed for the programmers. The 2D Artist will create pre-production concepts and in-game assets that will be consistent with the game’s current style and build upon the style to perpetuate it as the game evolves. They must be able to take art direction well and positively engage in a creative environment.

Required Skills:

• Excellent quick sketching and digital painting skills with the ability to mimic specific styles and emulate traditional art techniques.
• Excellent traditional art skills, including the effective use of color, form, lighting and composition.
• Ability to design and illustrate a broad range of subjects such as characters, environments, vehicles and props.
• Extensive knowledge of Adobe Photoshop.
• Basic/some knowledge of Adobe Illustrator.
• Ability to identify visual inconsistencies, design problems, and correct them accordingly.
• Ability to work autonomously and independently when the Art Director or other team members are occupied.
• Can work with existing assets both illustrated and graphic.
• A passion for games, virtual worlds, and social networking.
• Basic graphic design abilities a plus.
• Some 3D experience a plus, but not required.
