Breaking in

I have started looking at reach by going on the website Breaking In. i wanted to become a design artist example concept storyboarding 3d design so that what I looked up on (BreakingIn) and it showed up these.

3D Model Builder (Objects)
Like an industrial designer, the 3D object specialist designs physical objects, like vehicles, furniture, weapons, and the like. To be a 3D model builder you should be very organized and be able to build models quicker and quicker over time as you generate a good library of basic pieces. You also need to know "when to say when" - the amount of detail appropriate for a feature film and visible in the software is not necessarily going to be visible in the game. So you have to develop a sense of what's possible, and stop yourself before you waste time on unnoticeable details. The best object builders have some training in industrial or mechanical design, and therefore understand machinery, balance, gearing, materials science, and other elements of physical engineering. If you have the knack and the training, model building is a rewarding, focused job with a major impact on the game.

2D Conceptual Artist
If you love to invent worlds, people and creatures on paper, then Concept Artist might be just the job for you. A good video game conceptual artist needs the classic "hand skills" of the traditional artist to generate high quality images quickly - images that will inspire the team and might even be used as temporary art in the game. You'll need to especially good at 'perspective style' artwork and real and organic architecture. You might also create storyboards for movie sequences, so you'll need to be able to sketch important movie elements quickly without getting bogged in unnecessary detail. You will probably not create any actual in-game art, but will be responsible for the basic 'look' of many things. In design brainstorming sessions you'll sketch out ideas on the fly. At the beginning of the project, you'll create a lot of the art that appears in design document, and at the end, your art may be featured on the web site and in the manual.

2D Texture Artist
As a texture specialist, your job is to design the visible surfaces that cover the architecture, environments, creatures and objects in a 3D game. From the marble wall, to the faces of the characters, to the reptilian skin of the local fauna, the believability of the world will depend on you. Your primary tools are Photoshop and a 3D program, and you'll work closely with the 3D background artist. There are a few different techniques commonly used to create textures; you'll need to know all of them, and be able to choose the best one for a particular job. Some of the more common methods you'll use are photo manipulation, hand painting, flattening detailed models, algorithmic textures, and bump mapping. Finally, you'll work with the 3D modelers to devise ways to increase the speed of the game by reducing polygon count with clever texturing.

3D Cutscene Artist
Working with the conceptual artists, you'll follow a storyboard to generate a high quality cinematic movie sequence, either through prerendered full-screen animation, or with in-game scripted scenes using the game's engine. All linear cutscenes (non-interactive exposition in the game) require virtual camera movement, lighting, character and object animation, special effects, backgrounds, and props. You'll work with a sub-team of artists to develop these scenes, while concentrating on your own specialty. This part of game development is most similar to traditional film animation, and in fact, pre-rendered scenes may be outsourced to an animation company rather than produced by the game team itself. In-game cutscenes are usually produced by the game team, and may be created during a cycle in the over
3D Character Animator
Much like a traditional cel animator from the 2D animation world, the 3D character animator must be thoroughly familiar with, and have a gut sense for, creature locomotion and human expression. The most beautifully built character in the world will look terrible if it is poorly animated, and appears to lack weight, momentum, or personality. An added challenge of 3D character animating is that it often requires lifelike and naturalistic movement from realistic-looking creatures and people. The realistic aesthetic forgoes the exaggeration and key poses that are the hallmarks of expression in 2D animation. Motion capture is finding its way into the games industry, breeding a sub-specialty of animation. After an actor is mo-capped, the character animator applies the movement to the game character, hand-repairing and enhancing the action to look realistic and natural.

all development of the game rather than by a specific person on the team.

Been looking at all these jobs to find out what they involve what skills you need [such as the knowledge to use Photoshop and 3d programs hand skills of the traditional artist work fast know when to stop so you know don’t put so much detail on things because in the game or film you may not be able to see them. Im really interested in in the entire job types I don’t want to just be a 2d designer or a 3d design I want to be able to do a variety of different skills in my pocket.
