Hello Indiedb,

My name is Michael, co-founder of Mad Dr Studios, and we are currently looking for an artist and animator for our project. I will give you a little insight into my past.

I have 8+ years games industry experience and have worked on multiple AAA titles such as Fable 1, 2, 3, Little Big Planet 1, 2, DJ Hero 1, 2, CoD MW2 DLC Pack. I did not work directly as a programmer on these titles, I worked as Q&A and Level Design, but have been learning programming since my time in the games industry and have decided with my friend to dive into unity and make our own game (we have been working on the game for the past few months now)

Everything is slowly coming together except for (at the moment) 2 key area's, Animation and an Artist for all of our games models, assets ect. We was originally going to buy all our assets from the unity store but we would rather have something of our own and original, however we do not have the time to do this and build the game, nor are we both that artistic with blender.


Our Game
Code name "Project Summit" is going to be an ARPG + MMO (yes it's very ambitious) very similar to "Lost Ark" which is similar to the graphical design we are looking for - Youtube.com (for reference)

The game is being built in Unity, and I will happily discuss more core aspects of Project Summit if / when we talk via Skype / Email.


What We Are Looking For
We are looking for an Animator and Artist for all of our animation and models, assets ect for our game, you will almost be working from scratch, however we have a lot of the game's mechanics built but now need new characters, models, buildings... pretty much everything. We have most of what we are looking for drawn down as rough idea's but we are happy to show you our vision and get out of your way and let you do your thing.


Required Skills
We do not have any pre-set of required skills we are looking for, having worked in the industry for many years I have met some incredibly talented people with little to no background experience / self taught. So if you watch the Lost Ark video that we linked and think "I can do that!" then you are what we are looking for! We would like to see some designs you've done / a portfolio.


Working For Us
We are a very small team right now, but wanting to expand a little more. We are happy to negotiate prices for your work, but if you are looking to help support a very small indie team for free (during dev process) that's a massive massive help and you will "WILL" be hired as a full time paid employee once the game ships and will share in the games royalties. We have a contract ready for you before that even becomes a reality to protect your rights and work, you will not got screwed over, which has alarmingly become quite the trend in this industry.

We are more than happy for people to work part time during our development process as we have no deadlines as of now, but we may have times were we will need assets asap. We work full time on this game but are not expecting you to.
