goldslayer1 -> Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 19:01:57)

quote:

Think you've got the skills and talent to do art and animation for AQW? Here's your chance!
AQW is losing two of its greatest artists, Mennace and Aegis. Both are leaving for different reasons but both are leaving on good terms, we're sad to see them go and we hope that the fates allow them to return someday.
Meanwhile, this leaves AQW a little shorthanded in the art and animation department and we are looking for a few great AQW fans to become contributors, and hopefully, if things work out in the future, full time staff members of AE.
So we want to see what YOU can do!
Here is what we are looking for:
Experienced animators.
Experienced/Talented/Skilled Background / Environment Artists.
Artists who can mimic the AQW style.
Artists who have experience with Adobe Flash.
We will be looking at your AQW account history to make sure that you have a clean record. We are looking for artists who are mature, responsible, excited about contributing to AQW, willing to take criticism and make changes accordingly. We would like a few people to help with art for monsters, armors, and items but We are ESPECIALLY looking for animators and someone who can match J6's background / environment.
Here is what you need to do:
1. Send an e-mail to AQWARTISTS@BATTLEON.COM with the subject line AQW ARTIST APPLICATION

If your e-mails subject line says anything except AQW ARTIST APPLICATION then the filters will automatically delete it. Reading comprehension is good.
Include your real name, age (16 minimum), and country of residence.
Include your AQW Game account name and email address
Include your Master Account name and email address tied to the master account.
Include your Forum account name and email address if you have a forum account.
Include all Languages you speak/read.
Include a Resume (C.V. ) *please note we'd like the resume in English.
Include links to your online art portfolio or attach examples of your art. (please note that we're not stupid and if you just pull art off of Google, you will be laughed at then ignored.)
Link or attach your animation reel if you have one.

We are posting this on the Design Notes first because we ALWAYS want to get people from our community before looking outside the AE family, but if you happen to know someone who does not play, fits the criteria and would like some experience in the gaming industry feel free to let them know.
You must be at least 16 years old to be considered for this (these) position(s). If the application is not complete, we will toss it out. And please - one application per person. We will read all the applications and consider all of them. If you are chosen to go through a further interview, we will contact you by e-mail. Unfortunately, we cannot reply to everyone. If you do not hear from us, sorry.
Please note that this is an unpaid position but does come with in-game mod status, free AE game memberships, AdventureCoins, the chance to test game content as we develop it before release and invaluable experience with a honest-to-pie gaming company which will look good on ANY future resumes.
Thanks, good luck and Battle On!


so yeah AQW lost 2 artist (my guess is that they moved on with their careers) this leaves me to think...
why doesn't ED do this? as in recruit artists
should they do this?
what are ur thoughts?




DeathGuard -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 19:11:22)

Is not so easy to find a loyal worker, but I do agree they should do this[:)]




PivotalDisorder -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 19:13:10)

who actually posted that Goldslayer1?

their is the suggestions section, where people can post their artwork. has anyone ever posted artwork of a similar quality to nightwraiths and charfades.
I remember them being pretty bad, nothing much beyond college level. ofc If their is some I would love to see them :)




Wraith -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 19:45:16)

I've PMed Titan about this, he ignored me.

Frankly I would love a chance to do writing, I need practice for that; my grade in English is 95 and 100 :'( So I would love a chance to practice it, also I think writing storyline is much more fun than doing essays, so another reason I wanna try.

If Sir Dev wants to say hi, he should PM...Just saying.

ED has tons of volunteers, including SHARI! The person no one can live without lol.

@psibertus I believe Cysero or Alina posted it. Lol wow my tablet changed Cysero to Castro .-.




Stabilis -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 19:46:55)

^ Add to "Damn you autocorrect"




PivotalDisorder -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 20:35:03)

@Lord Sinastr: ED already has a volunteer topic for aspiring writers. it is stickied.

http://forums2.battleon.com/f/tm.asp?m=19635256

is that the kind of thing you meant ?




nico0las -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 20:44:48)

Dude, Mennace is going? That's it, I'm done playing AQW.

The team is still learning. They're testing new things. AQW has found what the people want, and are delivering. ED has yet to do so.

@below probably college or something.




IsaiahtheMage -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 20:46:55)

I wonder why too. :/




ur going to fail -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:04:49)

I KNOW FOR A FACT that cindy once said: There are 100+ player suggestion item designs that we are considering to put in game. Coding is hard.

I dunno where/when/exact words she said, but it was along those lines.




Midnightsoul -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:20:05)

yay, another apprentice to ED... -_-
no offense to Mennace, he's actually pretty good actually but it's completely unfair that Artix keeps preventing ED from prospering as fast and when he does think that ED needs help, he gives out a partially-experienced designer.




One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:28:25)

As Lord Barrius said AE likes to draw from it's player pool for staff so in Five years i would not be suprized to see either of our repeat suggestion shop players(DillBagel and person who's name escapes me but makes great art) as part of the ED art team but there is not really a way to show off your programming abilities save for sending off your works and information to the contact in AE(Its on the master account site somewhere i just do not remember where)




Retrosaur -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:38:39)

Never, EVER going to happen. These devs are way too cocky to even bother recruiting new members. Look at Cysero and the intiative he showed when he announced both Mirage and the other guy were going to live AE. He took action and called upon people to at least try out. The dev team here is probably too proud of their own team to let anyone else new join in, with the exception of Hudelf and Charfade. Yea go ahead AK's, rip your hair out reading this, but the devs won't just take into account anyone's suggestions (with the exception of the "Suggestion Shop").

Predicted response:

First off, PLAYER_NAME, unfortunately the idea you suggested is much harder than it seems. It would take a LOT of work just to get new members use to our programming and drawing styles, blah blah blah, etc.




rej -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:52:21)

Yeah, i was thinking of showing this directly to Dillbagel. (Though i'm not sure if he's 16)

pity i'm not taking programming/animating until next year. [:'(]




The Death Trap -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:53:39)

I like this idea im quite a good artist my self




Wraith -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:57:01)

Owa you mean Veneeria Violetmist?

Yea she's pro




One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/18/2011 21:59:38)

@Lord yeah her and I will prolly never remember her name mainly because i see DillBagel's name almost everyday




goldslayer1 -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 1:02:06)

cysero in the design notes of AQW.




Angels Holocaust -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 1:07:19)

I'm applying. I need this job




T.600 -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 5:35:37)

@nicho0las: You do realise that Mennace was working as a volunteer for AE? He probably left because he wanted to pursue a professional career as an artist and AQW helped him gain the experience he required. They still have other great artists like Dage and Jemini. Dage is absolutely amazing; one of the best artists out there.

@Lord: I think that they're looking for artists/animators/programmers for ED because Cinderella has already written a lot of the story. Your ideas may coincide with some of the stuff that she's already written, but if you believe that you're good at writing, and you're old enough to apply, then I don't see why not :P. It won't harm you if you try ;).





Wootz -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 5:59:29)

I wrote an story for ED.
That's in some way Volunteering for something.
Check it out here.




BlueKatz -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 6:26:41)

You guys just need to Email them with your work and ID details, asking for real (most people think they can be in just by "I can write" "I can draw") with proof of your work (a lot of those, in Flash)




DeathGuard -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 19:27:23)

I got some items at imageshack, and twitpic, I will post them and you can comment on what you think.
Seraph Evolved Version
PumpCon Drawing Contest Entry
Draconic Horn Staff
Devil Eye Bane
I have more items at suggestion thread :P. Pm me and I can give you a link to more of my drawings.




Wraith -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 19:29:14)

T.600: I'm not old enough. WHat I can do however is PM my stuff to Cindy. =P




Fay Beeee -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 19:49:47)

@ cyberbakio ryugan

Very nice indeed. I would not mind owning one of those. :)




DeathGuard -> RE: Epic Duel Volunteer recruitment? (10/19/2011 19:55:55)

@Fay: Thanks, draw almost all days to improve more [:)]
