    Red 5 Studios
    California - USA
    Mar 07, 2008
    Senior Level Designer (interiors)
    You are the architect for the landscape of the game, building visually stunning areas where players can't quite decide whether to stare in awe or concentrate on killing each other. It's your responsibility to make sure the environments aren't just attractive, but functional as well, providing interesting tactical choices that draw attention to important aspects of the gameplay experience. By working closely with designers and programmers, you devise ways to structure your levels so players can use all their characters' abilities, and all their own gameplay skills, to overcome challenges and opponents.
    A typical day:

    After reviewing the latest art assets and character abilities, you discuss with designers ways you can structure the new mission map to take advantage of particular character abilities and highlight important mission storylines. You begin laying out the general theme for the area, noting combat "choke points" and non-combat challenges that can occur in the environment, and collaborating with artists in the creation of new doodads and other game elements to plug into the map. Additionally you're putting the final touches on a multi-player PvP map that incorporates different aspects of gameplay. You organize sessions where you, along with a few artists and designers (and anyone else available), log in and run around the map. You'll demonstrate how your level design highlights the art and game elements, check the level for bugs and missing features, and finally develop alternative tactics for exterminating one another in virtual reality. This map will become the latest test area for the game, so you'll be tweaking it for months to come, but it can serve as a template for your next level which you'll be designing around a different set of winning conditions.
    Who you work with the most:

    You work hand-in-hand with exterior level designers, landscape artists, the art director, and concept artists, making sure your levels fit consistently and seamlessly into the world at large. By coordinating your efforts with the design team, you're able to build environments that showcase different game elements at all the appropriate times, introducing new challenges to correspond with new abilities and new items. Since the artists and the modelers create visual assets you'll use to design the levels, making sure they know the needs of the game is vitally important to the task at hand. What excites them, excites you, and will likely excite the players at the end of the day.
    What you've done before:

    * Experience with UnrealEd, Radiant, or equivalent level-building tool.
    * Playable level portfolio
    * Expert modeling skills with 3DS Max.
    * Experience with scripting missions, npcs and events
    * Strong sense of architecuture
    * Familiarity with texturing and lighting for next-gen engines
    * Passion for games and MMOs
