Big Huge Games (www.bighugegames.com (http://www.bighugegames.com/)), developer of GameSpot’s 2003 PC Game of the Year, "Rise of Nations", published by Microsoft, is looking for a creative, talented, and motivated FX artist to join the team. The ideal candidate has a strong understanding of in-game visual effects creation and related games industry experience. Creativity, strong technical and artistic skills, and a strong understanding of how to work within the limitations of a real-time game environment are vital. While not a must, the most attractive candidate will be skilled in an additional area of game development such as illustration, modeling, skinning, lighting or texturing. The artist must work well in an environment of peers who are passionate about making great games.

QUALIFICATIONS:

Samples showing previously executed effects work
Ability to bring dramatic effects to life with flair
Experience with 3D Studio Max
A strong interest in RTS Games
Desire and knowledge of how to push proprietary effects and editing tools further
Strong communication skills and the desire to work in a collaborative atmosphere
The passion, drive and dedication it takes to produce a great game
Able to work full-time in the Baltimore, Maryland area
Preference to applicants with:

Shipped-title experience
Experience working within PC and console memory limitations
Abilities in a secondary area such as modeling, skinning, lighting or texturing
At Big Huge Games, we have created a fun and focused environment where teams of artists, programmers, and designers work cooperatively to craft the next generation of real-time strategy games. In addition to competitive salaries, Big Huge Games offers an extremely attractive benefits package, including:

A royalty based bonus plan far in excess of industry standards
Stock options to all full-time employees
401(k) plan
Generous paid vacation, sick leave, maternity/paternity/family leave, personal days and holidays
Fully funded medical, dental and visual health insurance (including dependent coverage), short and long term disability insurance, and life insurance.
