• Console 3D Character Artist

This role welcomes newcomers,  all you need to know is how to create 3D using 3DS MAX, Zbrush and have knowledge using the previous software Substance Painter, Photoshop and Unreal Engine 4. Pretty easy right? Though I would suggest having a portfolio and/or videos to demonstrate how skilled you are in this sector, especially if you are jumping into this straight out of graduation or work experience.

• Facial Animator

For this one, you do not need a degree of any sort, but you will need a lot of knowledge on facial movements and muscles, understanding how the face works. You will also need an ‘excellent sense of motion and facial production’ as well as experience in animation using bones and morphers, all in 3DS MAX.

• Background Concept Artist

Welcoming to newcomers! For this the qualification requirements aren’t anything complex, all you need is experience creating your own concept drawings with Photoshop. However, their preferences lie in having experience in making high-end games, understanding and having experience with other tools such as ZBrush, 3D coat, Blender etc and also have an innovative mindset.

• Lighting Artist 

For this role, you must have over 3 years of experience and a strong understanding of UE4 lighting, UE4 engine project experience, understanding light mass, IBL and GI, along with cinematics and cutscenes – lighting according to direction. (Now I’ll say this, I don’t understand any of this…but if you do, why not apply for it?)

• 3D background senior Artist

There are a lot of requirements for this one and is definitely not for beginners or anyone who is starting out in their career. You must fully understand how to use 3Ds Max, Zbrush, Substance, Photoshop, Unreal Engine 4. This also includes world and landscape creation. The list is more detailed than this, but not to worry, I have linked where you can see the full details on this role at the bottom of this page.

• 3D background Artist

Most likely this role will be you assisting the 3D background senior artist, this role has similar requirements to the 3D background Senior artist, the only difference is rather than having a full-fledged experience in the same things, they ask for an understanding of them.

• Cinematic artist

For the cinematic artist role, they are a little specific about what they are looking for at the very beginning of their job description Shift Up mentions “We are Looking For people to produce cutscenes and directing scenes for the title ‘Project Eve’ for consoles. We are looking for someone who can create various high-quality cinematic videos from pre-visualization production, motion capture and animation production to camera directing.” This may also mean this will be one of the most vital roles out there, though all roles are important, this one potentially serves as a core.

There’s a lot more to this role, but fear not, I will link where to get all the information down below.

• UI Designer

This is the last role on the list. The responsibility lays heavy as it’s to do with Project EVE’s UI production.  You’ll need over 2 years of relevant experience, have an understanding of UI design theory and interaction design, as well as drawing ability for icon creation and good communication.
