Apply as an Artist
The Artist position is for people who can picture an epic scene in their head, and make it a reality: news highlights, tourney and casting splash screens, guide illustrations, and videos. Every single picture on this website has a creative mind behind it, and we need more of them!
Your tasks:
The bread and butter work of our artists is to provide images for portal content, in particular "highlight images." However, that's not the only canvas that needs paint. If a Strategist needs help with images for his new Soviet Guide, illustrating tactical movement etc., we will need you there to assist him. If our Casters and Referees are organizing a new tournament format, or are hosting an event and need a banner, or brackets for illustration? You will be there to help them. We are also constantly expanding our features and styling. If you have any skills in Video editing this would be very helpful, because videos gain a lot more attention these days when announcing something big!
Here is a list of things you would need to be an Artist on COH2.ORG:
- Above-average skills in graphic design, using professional 2D design software, like Adobe Photoshop and/or Illustrator or GIMP. This means we want you to be able to do more than just adding some text, strokes or blending options to existing graphics.
- If you have skills in Video editing you are a welcome addition to the Staff as well. Currently we don't have the manpower to create Videos for our Social Media or other things.
- You need creativity to come up with new and unique highlight designs for our portal content, and for Videos of varying purpose.
- Time! Images and Videos are often the bottleneck for new portal content and Social Media Announcements, so we need our artists to be responsive and able to provide pictures within a reasonable time frame!
- Powerful computer hardware would be a nice bonus, because it would allow you to take your own high quality in-game screenshots and videos for your content.
You think you have what it takes? Please apply by sending a PM titled "Application" to our Artist TM.Dutchy. In your application, please provide us with some information about yourself and your experience as a graphic designer. If you have an online portfolio, please give us the link.
If you are accepted, you will join a staff team that is passionate about the Company of Heroes franchise and its community. You'll gain access to the Staff forums, and be an integral part of where the magic happens! COH2.ORG is looking forward to your application.
Thanks in advance!
