salary is not much high if you ask me about the game industry in malaysia.
the jobscope is tigh and to expansion your career is limit.
they don't have much thing to teach you coz they are paying you to work.
there are few game company in malaysia too but mostly is mobile game company.

that why i work freelance with foreign..which in USD..
beside game i also work on movie industry as well.
i work only concept design/art part to model rigging.
so are working or gonna work at this field?

good to know a friend like you work at the same field.

good to hear that you done your intership training.

it is not a good inddustry for a meanwhile.
lot of big company at oversea is layoff and some went brankrupt or waiting to be take over (midway & atari)
most of the financial stuck coz the production company dare not make any
mass investment.
about the salary, it is consider less if compare to oversea.
to us is not bad coz due to our currency exchange.
actually it is more that the amount we can earn at here..


no worry, lucks will come.
maybe wait until next year see how the market going on..
now it is pretty rough time to go oversea.
or take some lesson/skill/course in waiting to pass by the time.

vfx field is great career scope.
maybe singapore can be your second choice.

no la.
it is just the fact only..

good to hear that.
wish u all best..
actually i got offer at lucasart at singapore before, at very early stage.
that time they scout heavy for talents to help them build the empire at asia market.
i reject their offer due i have company and project running.
i got freelance with ilm all the time and they thought hire me as well..
that time the pay was good.

nice portfolio u got.
the showreel is nice but try to compact the elements coz those fella see a number of demo each day..
always put a great and nice one at the front and try to make is rich of work.
you may not believe me, some only see few minute at the front and they eject it..
if you want to show them your artwork/3d work , then do less after-effect works or you wan to show them your fx works.
if not they can get confuse of your main objective.

forget about essay and all the sweet words those guys aren't buy it.
until now sometime i still msn with them with using foul language
they want to see more artwork than words.

working at/with ilm is not that glamour as it hear.
you are almost like sell the soul to them.
lot of rules/terms to follow. most of your works is fix-ed with their tight schedule.
lot of presure i would say if you are under power of that team.
few of my friends work at ilm(united state) face a nightmare when come to dateline/project.
because it take lot of aspect to complete the task.
from concept, technical part to post production.. and lot more..

but the good thing is : lot of new stuff to explore over there.
talking about rigging machine, render farm, in house software which you can't see else where, dcc technical knowledge and lot more..

ilm(singapore) is nothing to learn/work. they are main for starwars tv series and some local fx production house compare the hq.
they focus at cheaper labour cost at asia compare united state.

try to setting a good profile and sail your ship to bigger company.
lot of company out there beside ilm.

blur studio, massive black, dreamworks, sony image works, double negative, animal house and lot more..

i did lot of games/movies concept design but not allow to post it online/public unless been order.
but good thing is we always get the first script !! but with deadly time frame.

wow.. all still burning midnight like me? lol..

nice to drop by here once a while but i mostly now at http://www.joomcool.com/forums > cg & design section

nice work.
just a bit too reflective on the lamp-post.
the shadow from the fence is off-set from the light source from the lamp-post, this look odds.
the scale of the fence is too high compare the entrance of the shop.

just some minor tweak, this artwork will shine..

lot of improvement
maybe try hdri.
the thunderbird fit well too.

solidwork is a very good software.
but now i change to ironcad. it help me a lot at some of my concept work.
i even use it for my transformer concept work.
the calculation is superb !!

this one is nda release works.
i use ironcad and 3dmax. i love technical concept design.
about the color part, sorry to say this... most of my concept artwork is black & white colour..
it is my personnal signature.

i already post it at cad 3d before but just to bump up this thread with some of my old works.

i m from interior design field too..

try 64bit hardware if want to workflow smooth.
it support more ram and stability.

try zbrush, so far i guess it is the best out there.
mudbox still have lot of bugs.
hopefully autodesk fix it soon.

lot of nice work recently.
good to hear local cg industry is blooming.

hi to u, my friend.

everyone start from newbies, just dun let your self down.
i m sure u can be more than anyone out there or beat over them
