3:22 : Great advice, but only if the company in question actually has real people sending rejection emails. I'd say for all AAA and some AA developers, you'll apply through and be rejected through a noreply email, and they also don't have any direct email for the recruiter on their website. I get that with a high volume of applications that it isn't feasible to have it all done manually, but it does make the feedback part of the process much more difficult.

I just want to have a position where I can provide my ideas and have them taken into consideration; specifically for Rainbow Six Siege. One example off the top of my mind is to make it where when players talk in game chat, there is a voice changer that uses the operator’s voice they are playing as, and, that there is proximity chat between the two teams. I feel like this would give a more realistic and cool sense of this game, but also have a comedic side to it as well.

Really nice videos. I enjoy watching these a lot.

[@iamsamson]

If you have a specific studio you want to go to, check their web page for what roles they are looking for. highlight the things in your portfolio that fits that.

[@UbisoftMassiveEntertainment]

Hi! Put all of your best work together in a general portfolio, on ArtStation for instance (even if it’s a mix of character/environment-art)… And then when you apply for a new position, you can usually add attachments, so you could condense and tailor your portfolio. This could also be about the art style. We’d expect to see a vastly different portfolio for a Division application, compared to one for e.g. a Rayman game. Hope this helps! /Sebastian

T_T I enjoy building worlds in unity and unreal and love working on environmental lighting systems but have no credentials to back up my skills. How strong is a portfolio when apply for positions. Should my portfolio also offer explanations of how to do things or just demonstrate finished results. Is it a good idea for my portfolio to have a section where I show off work I have done within certain constraints? I.E. World settings which I do not personally pick but am instead assigned. Programming is just boring to me and I do understand the basics of programming (I could not confidently make a multiplayer networked game but I understand the process) should I mention that I do have an entry level understanding of C# and C++ and an overall understanding of the use of variables as well as manipulating your environment during runtime with code. Are tools like Blender as respected as Maya? Is it important to understand how to use Unity as well as Unreal Engine and to understand how to use their GFX components like Unitys shader graph? I also noticed Ubisoft is hiring in Oakville.. :P

It is very difficult to enter the industry when experience of at least 3 years is always required. A new graduate student with no contacts in the industry has no chance! it is almost IMPOSSIBLE. Say what you want, but it's about having contacts. Every time one applies for a job, they get the answer that they need experiencel For example in sound design, there is no feedback about the Demo or the application . The feedback is that they want one with more experience.

If you'll work as a Concept Artist, you can use wherever software, even hand painting, because you'll need to represent concepts visually. All designers will need at the end are drawings/paintings (Artworks) that represent their ideas. In this case, it's about the vision building of the project. If you're going to work as a Game Artist (Drawning the chatacters 2D/Environments/props), as long as your Procreate assets can be imported into the Engine used and render correctly, you can use it. Unless your Art department works exclusively with Photoshop and you working with Procreate may slow the process (Keep in mind that PS is a much more mature product than Procreate).

[@saran9736]

As @Skanda said, whenever your job as an artist is to draw stuff, it will be considered as Concept artist, they're the starting point when it comes to world and asset creation after the director and story board artist has given enough information about what they want they're imaginary world to be filled with.

Hey I know this is a month old question and you might have an answer already, but just in case: If you decide to both learn some art skills and programming, you will end up with a very desirable portfolio. But, it's hard to learn multiple skills at once so make sure you practice one thing at a time. Honestly the best way to learn both would be to just make a small game yourself, and have that as your portfolio.

this was pre-covid... how much of this still applies? :(

[@Peelster1]

I would say all of it. Just because you can't meet someone in person doesn't make any of the learning or communication skills you need different. Instead of going into an office for an interview, it is now set up over webcams instead.

This is just the same generic crap I’ve been hearing since high school I was hoping for specific advice on getting a job at Ubisoft like what engine I should practice on what kind of 3d modeling skills are they looking for. How disappointing

How do I even get noticed by video game companies but they want people who have college degree not someone who doesn't have one . Rejected 11 times you wonder if the person wasting your own time with it .

[@daisyconcepcion8687]

Try taking classes either self taught or a course and build a portfolio specifically for that game company. You should have a portfolio for each company you apply for. Every game company has different art styles and that style is there brand so try mimicking that into your work. Also if a company is mostly 2d art then do a 2d portfolio and if it’s 3D then do a 3D portfolio

Top tips from a 15 yea industry vet that has worked on multiple AAA titles: 1. Be a woman (this is honest, and gives you an edge) 2. Be multi-faceted. You cannot just be a"designer" or an "engineer". You can of course specialize, having a secondary skill is crucial for longevity. 3. Ability to critically think through problems. Demonstrate problems you've identified with the games the studio makes you are applying for. Then solve those problems, it will blow them away. 4. Have a focused portfolio of only your best work. Some sketches (if an artist are welcomed for demonstrating your process to tackling visual design). If an engineer, then know your fundamentals well, be able to talk through the reasoning of your code. Demonstrate thinking big picture. 5. Do game jams. This one is a no brainer to see the benefits along the lines of cross disciplinary tools you will be exposed to,and the experience you get when making a game. You'll also get a portfolio piece out of it if you're lucky.

Thanks. I saw ‘be a woman’ and now I’m motivated. Let’s go ladies.

BEEN REJECT 10 TIMES IT MAKES ME WONDER WHY AM I WASTING MY TIME WITH THIS.?

[@floatingchimney]

Do you know why you were rejected???

[@kpa-vo4pb]

@@floatingchimney my thinking is not enough experience . I took one or two classes online but even with that doesn't count as experience from taking a class online.

kpa1832 How about building a portfolio of your own small games first?
