Character Artist The character artist takes a concept to fruition; this person works under the supervision of the art director and lead character artist to create character assets for use in games and marketing materials. Based on the concept artist’s sketches, this person creates initial 2D illustrations. Those designs are presented to the art and design teams, tweaked, and revised. Next the artist will model a 3D computer image, gradually adding definition, weight, and colour. Enhancements like shading and texture may be the task of the character artist, or can be handed off to specialists.
Toyko, Japan Tokyo is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan and has been the capital since 1869. The Greater Tokyo Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world. It is the seat of the Emperor of Japan, the Japanese government and the National Diet. Tokyo is in the Kantō region on the southeastern side of the main island Honshu and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. Tokyo was formerly named Edo when Shōgun Tokugawa Ieyasu made the city as his headquarters in 1603. It became the capital after Emperor Meiji moved his seat to the city from Kyoto in 1868; at that time Edo was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo is a mega-metropolis of dizzying contradictions, both familiar and foreign. It has neon, skyscrapers, salaryman crowds, packed trains, cutting-edge architecture and futuristic technology. But it also has ancient shrines, plant-covered wooden houses, cycling grannies, old-school sweet shops and village-like lanes. Toyko is the home of giants of the games industry such as Square Enix, SEGA, Konami and Bandai Namco
