Posted by The-Super-Flash-Bros - July 10th, 2008


ACTIONSCRIPT 3.0 PROGRAMMER & ILLUSTRATOR / ANIMATOR JOBS!

Hey guys,

You may or may not know, I work full time in the Flash games industry these days, with a great company here in the UK. Right now, we're looking to hire a few new people, but in particular an ActionScript 3 programmer and a talented illustrator/animator. Here are the details if you'd like to appy. Alternatively, you can send your details to me in a PM and I'll forward them on.

In other news, Dim and I have some great games coming out in the next few weeks, so look out for them really soon! We're both going out to Comic Con in San Diego in a couple of weeks to meet up with the usual hoarde of Newgrounds people, looking forward to that! If you're going, see you there :D

#UPDATE# We've just released Blue Rabbit's FreeFall to the portal! Go play it now, vote, leave a review, all that fun stuff!

Neat.

I don't live in the UK, I'm pretty poor at AS, and though I'm lousy at it, I quite enjoy illustration/animation.

Pay me moneys.

Heh, awesome. I'll keep this company in mind for in a couple years time ;-)

By the way, is fulltime flash a well-paying job?

It depends on the company, but it actually pays pretty well on average. The industry here in the UK is booming but competitive

Tom-

So you guys have decided to go all-out professional?
OR was it like this before?

Nope, its just me (Tom) that has a full time job, Dim is at university doing an animation & illustration course.

Tom-

You move me to UK and pay me big bucks so I can draw you mediocre cartoon characters with eyes the size of watermelons and spend most of my time hording your fridge!

I'll forward your request to HR Mav ;)

Tom-

Sounds good, i'm not the right age, but i'm pretty sure someone like -deltaluca- would fit the bill perfectly. Amazing coder, he built a ray tracer in as3, and a fully blown game in C#, might be worth pming him.

May i ask what developer this is with?

id love to live in england

You say that now...

I know its just because I'm here ;)

Tom-

Damn.. im relatively close.. but not close enough..
Just out of curiousity, what is the name of the company?

The GalaCoral Group - Gala Bingo/Casinos and Coral betting shops rolled into one company.

Tom-

Cool. I wish I actually got up off my lazy @$$ and started making some stuff...

I draw pictures!

I don't!

Tom-

I draw cocks can I get the job now?

if i were british I'D... I'D................... go on holiday.

I can speak enlgish English.

Hired?

And one has to live in England because?

I'm a UK person! I suck at actionscript...but I can do decent animation...but I never finish the really good ones because I get bored.........

Anyway, you rock!

Nah.
Number 1, I'm 15
Number 2, It's in fucking Surrey.

erm....what company do you work for ^o)

I always like the name Surrey. Seems like a hedgehog name.

Damn, I wish I were older... and could script AS3... Oh well, there's always another chance right? Even if not, I'm gonna learn C++ at some point, and that should open a few doors. Hope you get someone good in there!

If I were older, had some work under my belt, and lived in the UK (or you paid for my ticket :P) I'd join. That's a big if for me having all that though. Oh, and how's TSAH3 going? I haven't seen many updates on that recently.
