Rise of the Hidden Sun: New team members wanted!

[chapter11studios]

OK, assuming I interpreted the forum rules correctly (specifically this part: "If you can provide a detailed synopsis with screenshots or prelimnary sketches, feel free to start a new thread asking for help") here's my formal call-to-arms for some new blood to help out with Rise of the Hidden Sun: A 'Rattlesnake' Jake Dawson Adventure.

First things first, a brief synopsis:

Arizona, 1869. An ancient Indian legend, a mysterious secret society, and a down-on-his-luck cowboy with a knack for finding trouble are about to cross paths in Rise of the Hidden Sun, a new point 'n' click comedy adventure game in development by Chapter 11 Studios.

With nothing to his name but his wits, his six-shooter, and a tattered old treasure map, 'Rattlesnake' Jake Dawson needs you to help him win the greatest treasure hunt the Wild West has ever seen -- because the very fate of Western Civilization is at stake, and Jake isn't the only one on the hunt...

Who is the deadly outlaw Mary Jane Clayton, and why has she devoted her life to finding a legendary lost city of gold? What is the mythical Hidden Sun, and why will a murderous secret brotherhood stop at nothing to get it? And perhaps most importantly of all, is Jake willing to sacrifice everything to stop them from succeeding?

Aaaaaaand now some screenies:

 

 

Finally, the positions we need to fill:

Animator
The animator will create character animations and in-game action sequences emulating the project's established artistic style. He or she will also have the opportunity to design and animate entirely new characters. We are looking for traditional 2-D animators.

Pencil Artist
The pencil artist will be responsible for creating background artwork based on our existing concept sketches and design notes, and must be able to emulate the project's established artistic style. Access to a scanner and familiarity with Photoshop or a similar program are required.

Colorist
The colorist will be responsible for digitally coloring background artwork. Proficiency with Photoshop or a similar program is a must, as is the ability to emulate the project's established artistic style.

Musician
The musician will help define the sounds of the game: background music, overture, and in-game sound effects.

We already have people working on each of these areas, but the more contributors we have the faster we'll go!

p.s. The area of biggest need is animations, not because we don't love our current animator (we do!!) but because that's the least-far-along part of the project!

Please PM or email me (chapter11studios @ yahoo dot com) if you're interested.

Interpreted correctly, so good luck! I've sent you a PM about sound-effects.
