Naughty Dog, creators of "Jak and Daxter" and the "Crash Bandicoot" series, want YOU!
How would one of you character animator types like to animate the lead character for our latest game? We are looking for a character animator with a MINIMUM TWO YEARS EXPERIENCE in either games, commercial, or feature animation, with a working understanding of Maya. Tasks include creating cycles, creating branching states, and working with "limited" kinematics and frame counts. Since we favor a heavy emphasis on traditional animation craftsmanship, reels must show a mastery of squash and stretch, secondary overlap, weight and mass... oh, and really cool dance steps. NO mocap, please!
The two-plus years of industry experience is essential. The person applying for this job will need to hit the ground running and be capable of working with minimal supervision.
If you want to get an idea of what we're looking for and what you'll be doing, visit ps2.ign.com or any other Playstation 2 gaming site and download some of the "Jak and Daxter" movies from their reviews section.
For more information on our company and games, you can visit our website:

Send your demo reel (with a detailed breakdown explaining EXACTLY what you did in each segment) and resumes to this address:
Naughty Dog
1315 3rd Street Promenade
Suite 500
Santa Monica, CA 90401
Attn: Josh Scherr
