What King Looks for in Your Portfolio

🎪 Mobile Game Art

King's art is bright, character-driven, and optimised for small screens. Show stylised 2D and 3D work with strong colour use and clear silhouettes. Candy Crush and Farm Heroes are the visual benchmarks. Avoid dark or hyper-realistic portfolios for these roles.

🆕 VFX / Animation

Mobile-first VFX means readable effects at low resolutions. Minecraft Blast roles require Minecraft-adjacent stylisation combined with modern real-time VFX techniques. Show juicy UI feedback effects and character animations with strong appeal.

🌎 Outsourcing Lead

Lead outsourcing roles require experience managing external art vendors, maintaining visual consistency across multiple teams, and creating art direction documentation. A portfolio showing style guides and vendor briefs is as important as personal art samples.
