Digital Extremes

Digital Extremes is seeking an intermediate Digital Artist to capture high-quality in-game screenshots and promotional art for Warframe and Soulframe. This role is tailor-made for a visual storyteller who bridges the gap between virtual photography and high-end post-production.

The ideal candidate has a proven eye for capturing marketing-ready screenshots that effectively showcase key update features, upcoming gameplay mechanics, and new in-game items. Deep familiarity with Warframe's Captura photomode is a significant advantage, though equivalent experience with modern in-game photomodes is highly valued.

By combining digital painting, graphic design, and expert Photoshop compositing, you will transform raw assets into polished promotional pieces that resonate with our global community.

•  In-Game Screenshot Capture: Frame, light, and capture high-resolution marketing screenshots using Captura photomode and internal engine tools.
• Photoshop Compositing & Paint-overs: Utilize Adobe Photoshop to photo-bash, paint over, retouch, color grade, and add intensive post-effects to elevate raw captures into cinematic art.
• Graphic Design & Assets: Integrate marketing art with strong design elements to create promotional banners, print designs, and social media assets with a keen focus on composition, typography, and brand identity.
• Pipeline Growth: Stay adaptable. Evolve alongside our pipeline needs, which includes the gradual adoption of Maya over time for advanced 3D asset manipulation and scene posing.

• Experience: 3+ years of experience producing digital art, marketing screenshots, or promotional assets within the gaming industry.
• Captura & Virtual Photography: Demonstrated ability to capture high-end promotional screenshots. Specific expertise in Captura photomode is highly beneficial.
• Technical Skills: Advanced proficiency in Adobe Photoshop for digital compositing, photo-bashing, and matte painting.
• Artistic Fundamentals: Strong command of graphic design principles, composition, camera angles, and cinematic lighting.
• Execution: A proven track record of meeting tight production deadlines while delivering polished, digital- and print-ready assets.
• Portfolio: Required. Must demonstrate a clear narrative focus through high-quality virtual photography and final, composited marketing art.

• Active familiarity with the Warframe and Soulframe universes and their unique aesthetics.
• Basic familiarity with Maya or similar 3D software packages (or a strong eagerness to learn).
• Experience organizing highly layered, complex source files (PSDs) for easy asset splitting and repurposing across various digital platforms.
