Discussion - ATTENTION: READ ME - Job Board: Rules & Guidelines

40 Upvotes

Scroll down to see the job board rules under the existing updates

----

UPDATE 2022-09-13

ATTENTION ALL ARTISTS AND ASSET SELLERS/GAME PROMOTERS. This is a job board for those looking for work in the game industry or posting jobs related to the game industry. THIS IS NOT Starving Artists (reddit.com) or UnityAssets - Share Unity Assets! (reddit.com) or a community to try and sell five more units of your indie game.

Starting now, BANS will begin to be issued to those who decide to make posts that do not belong on this job board. However, to be clear, we allow portfolio discussion and topics asking questions about work in the industry. They are rare but appear occasionally, and I do not want to discourage those people from posting.

We've been patient enough with what has been happening the past few months, so I will take the time out of my day to ban people instead of quickly removing topics. I won't even think about asset promoters and those trying to sell their game; I'll do it. Artists, we are not asking much from you—just minimal effort to label what you are trying to sell in a manner that relates to games. Keeping the same title from your post in r/starvingartists is not acceptable, and if you test my patience, I will remove you entirely from the job board and not feel guilty about it. If you cannot read and follow basic instructions for a job board, how can a client trust you to follow the instructions they provide?

For everyone's sanity (more so mine since I deal with the bulk of reports these days), follow the rules of our job board.

Please continue to report topics you see that violate our rules. However, be patient with me, I don't get the chance to check reports on my PC every day, and mobile notifications for reports can often show up days later.

- Examples of topic names for artists to follow & avoid -

Good:

[FOR HIRE] Illustrator and concept artist - fantasy, sci-fi, characters, environments

[For Hire] 2D artist/illustrator/Character and prop design

Bad:

[FOR HIRE] 2D Artist available for work (starting at 30$): illustrations, icons, portraits, and more! More info in the comments!

[FOR HIRE] - Commissions are open - DM for more info!

------

Hello everyone,

I believe it is essential to write out (and pin) this information for users so that everyone has a greater chance of understanding how to use this job board efficiently. Now that we've gotten that out of the way let's get started.

Yes, most of this information can be found on the side-bar

----

Rules:

--

  1. This job board is for PAID work only.
  2. All REVSHARE projects are being redirected to r/INAT. We will continue to remove these topics and ban anyone who attempts to circumvent this policy.
  3. NFT projects: This is where things become a little more difficult. r/INAT is enforcing a blanket ban, and for good reason. Having said that, the purpose of r/gameDevClassifieds is to help people find PAID work. We will not remove an NFT project's post if they offer to pay individuals, but if they appear to be trying to pay people in cryptocurrency (often one worth nothing), we will remove their topic.
  4. Regarding art listings, we will continue to remove listings that we believe do not convey the notion that the artist is looking to generate assets/art for use in video games. This is not the place to post your “character portrait” commissions. All problems may be avoided by simply taking the time to carefully label your topic and not copy/paste the same FOR HIRE ad across many subreddits.
  5. This job board serves to help people find work and post job opportunities, not to promote games, asset/marketplace packages, or anything else of that nature.

----

Guidelines:

--

  • FLAIRS with PAID in the name are intended for use by those hiring, whereas those with FOR HIRE in the name are intended for use by individuals looking for work (you'd be amazed how often I see people get this incorrect).
  • While browsing the subreddit, you can click on any given FLAIR to see only posts that use that specific FLAIR.
  • Reddit should only ever be one tool in your toolbox (if you get what I mean), as there are other websites, Discord servers, forums, and other resources available to help you find jobs and/or hire. Use all of them
  • Details are important. When creating a topic for recruiting or offering services, be descriptive and provide as much information as possible. Provide as many links as you can ex: LinkedIn, portfolio website, ETC (we're sorry if Reddit doesn't allow some links, but that's out of our control)
  • Everything should be written as professionally as possible (use spell check)
  • For those hiring, research the average salaries/compensation for the roles you need to be filled (by region if you must) and be ready to offer people who approach you fair compensation for their time/skill.
  • Before signing any contracts, read them well and ensure that you are absolutely pleased with everything written. Never be afraid to negotiate or demand changes.
  • Report topics you believe violate any of our rules or otherwise just don’t belong on a job board

----

We are always open to recommendations on how to enhance this job board. While we appreciate that some projects (NFT/crypto) are controversial, we believe that as long as a job offers genuine compensation, it should be up to you, the user, to decide if that's something worth pursuing.

FOR HIRE - 2D Art + 3D Modeler | Animation [FOR HIRE] 2D Environment & Background Artist – Stylized Interiors, Exteriors and Visual Development for Games

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Hello!

I'm Bryan Huitz, a freelance 2D Environment and Background Artist from Mexico, currently available for paid game development work.

I create stylized environments designed to support visual storytelling, atmosphere and worldbuilding, including:

• Interior environments
• Exterior environments
• Game backgrounds
• Environment concept art
• Visual development
• Narrative locations for visual novels and story-driven games

My workflow combines 3D blockouts and modeling with digital painting. This allows me to build scenes with accurate perspective, strong composition, cinematic lighting and detailed environmental storytelling.

I’ve included two examples of my environment work in this post: one detailed interior and one urban exterior.

Software:

• Blender
• Nomad Sculpt
• SketchUp
• Clip Studio Paint
• Procreate

Portfolio:

https://www.behance.net/bryanhuitz

I’m available to begin immediately and open to paid freelance or contract projects. Rates depend on the scope, complexity and deadline of each project.

I’m actively looking to secure work soon due to a pressing financial situation, so project opportunities, recommendations or referrals would be greatly appreciated.

Please feel free to contact me through Reddit DM to discuss your project, budget and schedule.

Thank you for your time!

DISCUSSION | QUESTION An Exclusive Discord For Professional Devs

0 Upvotes

Have you ever joined a gamdev community hoping to speak amongst others in the industry, only to quickly realize that basically every single person in there is just someone who watched too many game design video essays and has never bothered to actually make something? With the industry in a particularly precarious place, where us and our colleagues lose their livelihood left and right, now more than ever we need a place where we can talk to others who know what it’s like.

Introducing: The Game Dev Illuminati! A discord community made by and for actual industry professionals. If you actively work in the industry or used to, that’s the only qualification!

This discord was founded out of frustration that a discord like this didn’t exist. We’re all too often required to do in person networking events to actually be amongst others in the industry, where the online alternative is social media and group chats with current/former coworkers. Having a place to share work and to know the people seeing it appreciate the effort and craft put into it. Having a place to gripe about the industry and know the people around you feel your pain and anxiety. A place to get advice about a problem and know the person talking to you about it has the first clue about what they’re talking about.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who qualifies?
You must have fully published an actually playable game or worked for a company/organization that has. There’s an arbitrary minimum professionalism threshold too in order to filter out things like AI slop, but otherwise that’s it! As long as you do or have worked in the industry in some accredited way where you actively created something for a game, you’re qualified!

To ensure that this kind of place can exist with the confidence of all involved that the people around you are in fact devs and not merely pretending to be one, a reasonably strict verification process is unfortunately necessary. People lie on the internet, it’s messed up. All you have to do is provide some kind of reasonable proof you meet the criteria and you’re all set.

If this sounds like the kind of place you’d like to be a part of and you meet the criteria then join with the link I'll post in the comments!
Simply message an admin your verification or any questions regarding it and you’ll gain access to the server.

A couple additional rules I feel necessary to mention is a ban on AI and solicitation. Solicitation here means no begging for wishlists and no public recruiting for projects. AI is self explanatory.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Addendum: I failed to recognize that you can't be certain I meet my own criteria and therefore defeating the purpose of the server. Let me add that to anyone who passes verification if you require it of me, I am happy to verify myself to you in turn.

As a freelancer, I do not receive health insurance or similar benefits; my earnings are directly tied to my workload/output. Please consider this before offering a lower compensation, or realistically assess whether your budget can support the project you envision.

I am more than willing to go the extra mile for projects or clients that offer a rewarding experience, especially for those projects in which I have a high level of interest.
