Paradox Interactive is now looking for a talented 2d artist for our internal development team at the Stockholm office. Ideally we would like to fill this position before the end of the year. The artist will primarily work with 2D graphics, with tasks like user interface, concept art, matte paintings, icons and similar.
Since your work involves a lot of user interfaces, an understanding of usability is important, especially since these tasks often require you to concept interfaces in advance. Working with interfaces also requires a good ability to cooperate with others, because you will work very closely with programmers on these tasks.
At Paradox we usually work on several titles at the same time, and as an artist you will usually work on all of them at one time or another. This keeps the job varied and interesting, but also requires a good ability to keep track multiple tasks.
Even though you will primarily work with 2D graphics, an artist at Paradox stands much to gain by having other talents, which will weigh heavily on our final choice. Because the team is fairly small, a lot of responsibility is placed on each artist, and flexibility is king. This also enables any artist to contribute anywhere. So if you have a talent for 3D modeling and texturing, animation, video editing or similar, these skills are very much a merit.
The internal productions are Grand Strategy games with a focus on history. An interest in this type of game will also be in your favor.
At Paradox you will enjoy unique job security since Paradox is its own publisher and financier. This gives us a rare amount of freedom with our productions.
* Please not that this position requires daily attendance at our Stockholm office so living in Stockholm or close by is necessary.
** Work samples should preferably be presented via a online portfolio or attached as images or as i .zip file with images. PDF should be avoided, it degrades the image quality and images are hard to judge.
This is a Full time permanent position. We accept applications through email at: fredrik.persson(at)paradoxplaza.com
På Barnvärlden skapas en plattform för de allra yngsta barnen tillsammans med flera av Sveriges allra bästa barnboksförfattare och upphovsmän. Barnvärlden bygger en värld som ger kända sagofigurer som Pippi Långstrump, Pettson och Findus och Mamma Mu liv i form av interaktiva upplevelser och äventyr. Bakom satsningen står några av de allra tyngsta namnen inom svensk barnkultur. Saltkråkan AB, som förvaltar rättigheterna till Astrid Lindgrens produktioner, Sven Nordqvist, författare av Pettson och Findus, samt KF Media, där barn- och ungdomsboksförlaget Rabén & Sjögren ingår, deltar med sina produktioner och har tillsammans en del i bolaget. Barnvärlden sitter i mysiga lokaler i Gamla stan och har 17 medarbetare.
Som AD tar du fram koncept utifrån en given vision för att passa in i den värld vi bygger. Du skapar nytt material på ett befintligt tema men har frihet att göra egna tolkningar inom vissa ramar. Du hjälper också andra att se till så att det grafiska arbetet håller en hög kvalitet och följer en och samma stil.
Krav:
- 2 års erfarenhet av art directing
- Utvecklade färdigheter i konceptdesign
- Kunna hantera olika grafiska stilar
- Bra Photoshop och datorgrafikskunskaper
- Erfarenhet av 2D-grafik för spel
Extra meriterande:
- Erfarenhet av GUI och webbdesign
- Erfarenhet av 3D-grafik för spel
Egenskaper
Vi tror att du är stilsäker, initiativrik och inspirerande med förmåga att arbeta både självständigt och i grupp med en lust och vilja att utveckla en levande och unik värld för barn. Du har en stark illustrativ ådra och integritet men kan anpassa dig när så krävs. Det är viktigt att du förstår processen och kan revidera konceptet utifrån beställarens önskemål. Om du också kan modellera och texturera objekt för att passa en 3D-värld så är det extra meriterande.
Vår företagskultur har högt i tak och vi delar med oss av våra kunskaper. Med måndagsfrukost, kreativ timme, fredagsfika, badminton och spelkvällar om vartannat hoppas vi att alla ska trivas och i slutändan förstås också arbeta bättre ihop.
Skicka din ansökan snarast till jobb@barnvarlden.se och ange AD i ämnesraden. Urval kommer att ske löpande. Har du frågor är du välkommen att kontakta rekryterare Susanne Gren tel. 070-497 76 70.
Vi söker en illustratör/koncept-tecknare för en TV-serie för barn i åldrarna 6-11 som just nu utvecklas uppe i Luleå.
Serien har gott utvecklingsstöd hos Filmpool Nord och skall säljas in hos investerare efter nyår. Under hösten inleder vi även en dialog för internationellt samarbete.
Nu behöver vi hjälp av en duktig illustratör som kan tolka de konceptskisser vi utvecklat, och utifrån dem tillverka Concept Art.
TV-serien är en spännande blandning av traditionellt modellbygge och digitala 3D-varelser, och det är dessa varelser som vi vill hitta tolkningar av. Då vi två som utvecklat skisserna båda är skäggiga män i våra bästa år är det ett plus om sökanden är en kvinna – Detta är dock inget måste.
Uppdraget går ut på att sätta sig med de befintliga konceptskisserna och placera in dem i de miljöer vi utvecklat. Vi tänker oss att ditt arbete kommer utgöras av en första insats som är något större, följt av eventuella kompletteringar längre fram. Konsultarvode betalas, lämna kostnadsförslag – antingen per bild, eller enligt dagsarvode.
Maila din ansökan tillsammans med arbetsprover, antingen som bifogade bilder (inte alltför högupplösta/stora tack), eller som länkar till hemsida.
Vi vill ha din ansökan senast måndag den 14e november, och jag nås bäst på telefon runt 16-18 alla vardagar om det är något du funderar på.

Filmtecknarna har bland annat gjort reklam åt Naturskyddsföreningen, Metro och Coop. Nu går bolaget i konkurs.
Filmtecknarna har funnits i 30 år, men tvingades i dag att lämna in en konkursansökan till Stockholms tingsrätt efter flera år av dålig lönsamhet.
– Det är tråkigt att vi har behövt ta detta beslut när det gäller bolaget Filmtecknarna Stockholm som var ursprungsbolaget i gruppen men vi är också stolta att vi har drivit verksamheten i en tuff bransch i drygt 30 år, säger vd:n Lars Ohlson i ett pressmeddelande.
Enligt bolagets senaste bokslut, som sträcker sig mellan juli 2009 och juni 2010, omsatte bolaget 17 miljoner kronor. Under samma period gjorde bolaget en förlust på 1,7 miljoner kronor.
Totalt sett berörs 11 personer av konkursen.
– Detta är ett resultat av en vikande reklamfilmsmarknad. Vi jobbar på att försöka göra det så bra som möjligt för anställda och underleverantörer.
Trots konkursen kommer bolagen Filmtecknarna Fiction och Filmtecknarna Inc, vilka tillhör Filmtecknarna-gruppen, inte att läggas ned.
– Vår verksamhet i Filmtecknarna Fiction och Filmtecknarna Inc i New York ska fortsätta. Vi jobbar på att hitta lösningar med mer kostnadsanpassad verksamhet för att producera reklam och beställningsfilm, men i en mindre kostym. Vi är ett bra team med hög kvalité vilket gör att vi kommer att kunna möta våra kunder även i framtiden
