As a Senior Texture Artist at Ubi MTL, you will help bring an immersive world to life by creating and applying textures (for props, architecture, and environments) that add depth and dimension to everything within it. Through a blend of observation, talent, and imagination, you'll add the details that define the characters, objects, and environments.
Drawing inspiration from real life, you'll craft realistic materials and adapt to new tools to fully leverage their potential. You'll be free to choose the methods that work best for you to achieve a final look that suits the game's tone and makes it unforgettable.
What you'll do
- Collaborate with the art team to understand the game's artistic vision and define texturing priorities, in line with the visual identity of the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake.
- Internalize visual concepts and gather relevant references to enrich the visual design language.
- Work closely with 3D modelers to create textures that elevate the models and enhance the visual fidelity of environments and architectural elements.
- Create detailed, high-resolution textures from scratch or using references/scans, and maintain a well-organized texture library.
- Collaborate with technical artists to ensure textures are optimized for performance without sacrificing quality.
- Participate in visual reviews, offer constructive feedback, and incorporate input from partner teams to maintain a high standard of quality throughout the production pipeline.
- Contribute to the improvement of texturing workflows by documenting best practices to support scalability and efficiency.
- Balance artistic demands with technical constraints of the game engine.
- Iterate on your work, fix bugs, and ensure the final optimization of textures based on feedback.
Qualifications
What you bring to the team
