Inventive Lead Designer with Entrepreneurial Aspirations Wanted at Valhalla Studios

Forum

Valhalla Studios is Expanding & You can Own a Piece of the Pie!
 
Valhalla Studios is a Self-Sustaining Independent Game Studio & Training College est 2007.
 
Over the past two years we have perfected a model of business that doesn't rely on Publishers  backing to stay afloat, allowing us the freedom and time to make truly new titles.
 
We are opening a limited number of new studios in Brisbane and Melbourne; and in order to achieve our vision we require a handful of extraordinary people to partner with us.

What we're looking for in potential owners:
• A genuine enthusiasm & deep passion for Games & Games Development.
• At least 2 years Industry experience & 1 release .
• A skillset able to fulfil one of the following roles:
○ Lead Designer - Create or refine a truly innovative game mechanic that is most of all fun; C# Coding Experience preferred.
○ Producer - Inspire & Coach the team, delivering project milestones on-time, every time; Intermediate Art skills in industry standard 2D & 3D Packages (Photoshop & Max preferred).
○ Lead Artist - Mentor & support the art team; Art Skills as above in an Advanced capacity.

The Opportunity would give you:
 
• Extensive creative licence over Titles that your studio makes; and significant input into how they are made.
• A secure salary based role in the company (Lead Designer, Producer or Lead Artist).
• Leadership over 60 passionate Part Time  employees 
• Profit Share  of 5% which could potentially result in an additional income of   $35k- $280k per year
• Your creative input and ownership interest in the studio will also result in additional potential passive income, as a result of your partial rights to the IP of each Title developed in your studio     
• As an added incentive, all qualifying partners will receive part ownership through a pool of all studios, including partial rights to the IP and Profit Shares of all Titles made by the group.
• Qualifying partners will also be invited to sit on the Board for Creative Direction which has direct and significant influence over the development of future titles by the Studios
• All partners will be invited to the Annual Valhalla Retreat - an all expenses paid holiday, to celebrate the years successes.
 
Ownership of your own studio has never been closer to your reach than through this opportunity; especially considering the major risk factors in studio ownership are the responsibility of Valhalla Studios including:
 
• Financials for the company (in particular Paying Wages).
• Liaisons with Government bodies & Potential Publishers
• Marketing, branding & sales.
• All financial risk of Leases, Cashflow etc.
 
What this means is you will not have to put a cent more into the business past your initial buyin; Just Get Creative , Get Innovative  and produce a game that  is potentially the next hit.
 
If this sounds like the chance that you've been waiting for, or think it could be, you can send a confidential enquiry (including a resume with Mobile detail) directly to our Founder & President - Elphie Coyle at:

elphie@elphie.com.au

Note, you will need to do the Spam Arrest Verification. Elphie will then personally contact you to arrange a time to meet and visit our Brisbane Studio.
