EDIT: We have filled this position. Thx to all who replied.

VR game startup (six people) in the Seattle area looking for artists! The work boils down to:

1) Art direction/concept work - We need someone to collaborate with us to create a visual style guide for our world and characters. Help us design a cool and unique look! We need this ASAP.

2) Asset creation - We need to build the assets for the game based on that style guide. We need to complete this over the next month or so.

We don't mind if the same person does both, or if we use different people for (1) and (2).

The vibe of the game is stylized, somewhat cartoony (although we are trying to avoid being too childish), and has a sports/recreation theme. We are not: Dark/scary, military, high end AAA. If you think "Double Fine" you'll be in the ballpark!

We are using Unity, and our primary platform is Vive (although we will soon be on Oculus too, and PSVR is planned… we are also keeping mobile VR platforms in mind).

Happy to negotiate payment for the right partner(s). Local/onsite preferred, but remote could work too.

If you or someone you know might be interested, please post a portfolio link and we'll be in touch!
