Every great story has a new beginning. We're excited to announce that Discovery and WarnerMedia have combined to become Warner Bros. Discovery. WBD is a premier global media and entertainment company offering audiences the world’s most differentiated and complete portfolio of content, brands and franchises across television, film, sports, news, streaming and gaming. We’re home to the world’s best storytellers, creating world-class products for consumers. From brilliant creatives to technology trailblazers and beyond, join us as we step into the next chapter.

Rocksteady Studios is an award-winning, critically acclaimed video game developer. Founded in 2004, we are home to the widely celebrated Batman: Arkham series of games.

We’re a one-project studio that built our success by combining genre-defining gameplay and character-driven cinematic narrative with AAA production values. Born in the heart of London, our multicultural team takes inspiration from the culture and history of our home in one of the most diverse cities in the world.

As a Senior Character Artist at Rocksteady, you will work on some of the most recognizable characters in Film and Comics on our next Triple-A game: Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. We’re looking for people who are looking for an opportunity to grow, and who want to make a difference to the face of video games by creating diverse and exciting characters from the world of DC.

While we have one seat available on the team, we are open to exploring those who excel with the art as well as those that have strong technical strings on their bow! This role has hybrid working options available.

  • Work with the Character Lead to create world class characters from the world of DC
  • Consistently produce characters that creatively and technically meet the studio requirements.
  • Develop the skills for yourself and those around you.

  • Be proactive and work together with the wider studio to produce excellent results

Requirements:

  • An artistic eye for character design and presentation
  • World-leading sculpting abilities
  • Mastery of game quality topology for both organic and hard surface modelling
  • Mastery of materials and texture creation, able to create realistic materials and beyond
  • Experience working with hair pipelines
  • Experience working with Marvellous Designer workflows
  • Experience working with Unreal Engine, or equivalent
  • Portfolio with strong examples of realistic human characters, cloth drapery, hard surface, and characterful creature work

Bonus Points:

  • Passion for DC Lore
  • Passion for video games
  • Working knowledge of Substance Designer
  • Working knowledge of Python Scripting and examples of how this was used
  • Working experience with Houdini within a character pipeline
  • Can bring something new to the team

If you do not meet all the requirements, but after reading through the description you feel excited about the position, and believe you’d still be a great fit for the role we’d still love to hear from you!

The Perks:

  • Exclusive WarnerMedia events and advance screenings
  • Paid time off every year to volunteer for eligible employees
  • Access to well-being tools, resources, and freebies
  • Access to in-house learning and development resources
  • Part of the WarnerMedia family of powerhouse brands
