Job Description
As an Environment Artist (Level Artist) at Ubi Toronto, you'll create captivating 3D environments within an immersive world waiting to be explored. You will be an environment architect, a visual storyteller, and an experience maker wrapped into one.
Be it in a level, side mission, or piece of an open-world map, you assemble and position key elements to deliver impactful visual moments and enhance the player experience. Every asset you carefully place, from a building to a prop, tells a story and evokes an atmosphere and a mood.
Even within a given framework, you can push creative boundaries -- and you have the artistic ability to do it. You know how to modify lighting, play around with composition, and add just the right amount of detail to develop a game space with personality.
What You'll Do
- Collaborate with level designers and the art director to discuss and understand game intentions and vision;
- Perform artistic research (find written descriptions and visual references);
- Set up placeholders and submit modelling and texturing requests to artists;
- Find balance between artistic aspects and technical constraints;
- Integrate and build assets into the game engine to set and dress a polished scene;
- Ensure integrated work aligns with artistic direction and supports gameplay (test and improve).
Qualifications
What you bring
- Experience in modelling, texturing, lighting, and image processing within a game pipeline;
- Knowledge of 3D software (e.g., 3DS Max or Maya) and optimization techniques;
- Understanding of art fundamentals: lighting, composition, colour theory, etc.;
- Curiosity, flexibility, and resourcefulness;
- Creativity and a keen eye for detail;
- Knowledge of 3D scanning and optimization techniques is a plus.
What To Send Our Way
- Your CV highlighting your education, experience, and skills;
- A portfolio of your best 3D work---images or a link to your online portfolio.
