Concept Artist

Description
Our mission is to enable everyone to work from home and take advantage of these benefits. To accomplish this mission, we’ve built HoloMeeting, a remote collaboration solution for Mixed Reality. Our solutions is already being used by large enterprise clients and we are looking for more adventurers to join us on our quest. 

We are looking for a talented Concept Artist to help us realize ideas and communicate them clearly with our clients and within our remote teams.

You have an artistic flair and skill in both traditional hand drawing and computer software-based visual creation. You must also be able to work remotely, able to communicate through quick sketches, share ideas for comment and act upon feedback to complete work on request. 

To meet the different demands of pitching, creative design and prototyping, we are looking for a candidate who is adept at both quick sketching and finished artwork. Not only are we looking for fast ideation, quick storyboards, and rapid visual mock-ups, but also the more traditional pace of concept art, finished visualizations, and a combination of photo assembly and painting, in whatever medium gets the clearest message across (though all actual deliverables must be digital). We need a well practiced member of the team who can help to communicate ideas, but also add a next level of quality to the general output of the studio. The candidate needs to be a flexible team player, and take direction in terms of the medium of the finished artwork, or the style that best suits the end product, though it will often be their role to set this initially. 

HoloMeeting is a product of Kazendi, and we expect our successful candidate to employ this platform to share their work and talk through their ideas.

Responsibilities
  • Visit workshops and work with the design team to sketch ideas.
  • Create storyboards with the design team.
  • Create professional visualizations of example screens or use cases to share with clients.
  • Create mock ups of user interfaces to help find a style and colour scheme.
  • Help the design team prototype ideas through rapid visualisation.
  • Improve the content of pitches and documents with original artwork.


Requirements
  • At least 2+ years experience in a similar industry (UI design, games, web, apps, VR, MR, XR, etc).
  • Strong pencil and digital sketching experience.
  • You will need to demonstrate your ability in the following skills: pencil sketching, painting, software based concepting, storyboarding and finished artwork.
  • There will also be some travel required for visiting client workshops across the globe, where rapid storyboarding and quick mock-ups will make ideation flow with clients.
  • For travel you will require a full passport and may be requested to apply for visa's, etc.
  • You will need your own computer and input devices.
  • You will require access to a good and consistent internet connection.


Nice to Have 
  • Fine Arts degree


Helpful Experience
We will expect the candidate to show us the last 2 years of their professional work, demonstrating sketches and finished artwork, showing a number of styles.

There is no requirement for previous experience with VR or MR (HoloLens), but a basic understanding of the difference in the platforms will help. However, we are looking for a team member with experience in storyboarding and finished artwork in a related industry (UI design, games, web, apps, VR, MR, XR, etc).

 
Work Environment
HoloMeeting operates in a remote environment. Our roles require “start-up hours” which can result in long hours, early mornings, and late nights. Candidates should have flexible working hours to accommodate this and the company growth. 

 
Benefits
  • Upon joining the team, you will receive a company HoloLens, experience HoloMeeting for yourself and assist the team in continuous improvements
  • Work in a remote environment
  • Enjoy the flexibility of setting your hours
  • The ability to travel 
  • A supportive people team who cares for your professional development and has plans to prove it!
