Crystal Dynamics Seeking Art Director for AAA Franchise
by June 16, 2009 @ 12:21 pm

San Francisco-based studio and Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics is in search of an art director for an unnamed “AAA franchise,” according to a recently posted job listing.
Crystal Dynamics has a rare opening for a Senior Art Director on one of the most prestigious AAA franchises in the industry. We are looking for an exceptional talent to bring onto the team and continue the long tradition of visually stunning and award winning titles from Crystal Dynamics.
Requirements include at least seven years of prior industry experience, as well as a “minimum of 2 video games as Art Director demonstrating a high visual bar” and a proven track record of working with an established AAA franchise.
This listing comes despite a wave of recent lay-offs at the studio, which resulted in 25 employees being let go. Chances are this secret project is the next Tomb Raider.
