Unknown Worlds Entertainment is looking for a bohemian art director. We are responsible for Natural Selection (http://www.natural-selection.org) , and are now building a company around it.

We are going to bring games to the next level of artistry, and we need someone who is a true artist, not just an asset-creator.

Requirements:
- Eye for lighting, shading and colors.
- Has ability to conceptualize, manage and coordinate creation of overall game "look". This includes creating sketches and concept art, doing test renders and texturing experiments.
- Passion for games and immersive environments. Wants to create vibrant, colorful, accessible worlds.
- Is fanatical about overall artistic integrity, attention to detail, and polish.
- Loves sci-fi (Aliens, Starship Troopers, Dark City, etc).
- Can lead other artists, helping and inspiring them to constantly improve.
- Views graphic software and technology as tools to be used for a higher purpose. Can easily shift to new technologies.
- Color portfolio (electronic or hard-copy) required. Samples can not be returned.

The ideal candidate also has the following:
- Degree in Fine Arts or equivalent.
- Experience working on games or films.
- Has previous experience as Art Director or Coordinator.
- Has played and loves Natural Selection.
- Loves games like Starcraft, Half-life and Tribes.
- Gets unbelievably excited when watching "making of" segments on DVDs, and wants to bring "higher" artwork to games.

This is a full-time position in downtown (Yaletown) Vancouver, British Columbia (2 hours from Seattle). Off-site or contract work not available for this position.

Send inquiries or application to jobs@unknownworlds.com

Hope to hear from you soon!
