- Collaborate with the Technical Artists, Expert Technical Art Director and Producer to discuss and integrate the vision and intent of the game;
- Study visual references and conduct independent art research for inspiration;
- Understand the tools, pipelines, workflows and technical constraints of the project and provide feedback.
