Character / Background Artist

The Story Department is looking for artists that contribute their artwork for characters and/or backgrounds for the different aspects of their interactive story experience.
Awoo Crew

As artist in the Story Department you will contribute artworks that will be used in videos on the main stage and the interactive story experience during the Awoostria convention.

Key responsibilities

  • Create artworks of characters and/or backgrounds according to the requirements of the writers and the lead artist/storyboarder.

  • Possibly help with the design of new characters.

Qualifications and Profile

  • If you want to contribute character artworks, previous experience in drawing anthro characters is required. You will be asked to provide access to a portfolio.

  • For drawing backgrounds, experience in drawing diverse environments is a plus. We’ll also ask you to share a portfolio.

Time Commitment

You will be asked to draw a number of artworks in the months leading up to the convention, depending on the number of artists and the requirements for the specific convention story. The rest of the story team will work to ensure the possibility of generous deadlines - so under normal circumstances you will be able to make your own schedule within the timeframe of a few months. A plus is that the tasks will be finished before the start of the convention, so you can enjoy the convention itself fully as free time!

Benefits of Volunteering

  • Build your portfolio as a (furry) artist.

  • See your own artwork on the big screen as part of a multimedia production.

  • Put your name in the credits of something very cool, every year!

  • Network with many great people from the furry community.

  • Pre registration for the Awoostria Con, Awoocrew goodies, access to the volunteer lounge during the convention.

If you love creating art and want to contribute a growing and vibrant community, we'd love to hear from you! Apply now by sending your portfolio to [email protected] or message Volteer, the Story Department lead, directly through telegram.
