🖌️ About the Opportunity

Realms MMO (characters, creatures, environments, weapons)
Echo Reality (AR overlays, spatial markers, avatars, UI metaphors)
AI-driven avatars & emotional actors

Mini-games + live narrative events
The Concept Artist generates the visual blueprints that guide everything our 3D, animation, and VFX teams produce.
This role blends:
Worldbuilding
Character & creature design
Environment and prop ideation
Rapid iteration
Exploratory visual storytelling
If you love shaping new worlds and drawing the ideas that set the tone for an entire universe, this is your role.
🚀 Your Mission

You will:
Explore designs that match the Art Director’s vision
Produce quick sketches and polished illustrations
Help establish visual motifs, shapes, silhouettes, and themes
Provide clear handoff art for modeling + animation teams
Your work becomes the visual starting point of everything built at Inkognido.

You define the early visual DNA of the Inkognido universe.

Experience with AR-related visual metaphors or UI iconography
Familiarity with lore-driven or narrative concept pipelines
Ability to create loose key art or cinematic frames
This role suits artists who love exploration and creative problem-solving.
💡 Why This Role Matters
Before any 3D model, animation, environment, or UI component exists — concept art comes first.
You define:
The look of playable characters
The personality of AI avatars
The vibe of cities, dungeons, and landscapes
The tone of Echo Reality overlays
The style of creatures, weapons, and props
Concept art prevents misalignment across departments and accelerates production dramatically.
Your work becomes the visual foundation of the entire Inkognido universe.
