Hello! I'm the director of Second Star, a first-person sci-fi narrative adventure, and we're looking for a Cinematic Artist to join our team! I've included info on the game and role below! NOTE: This is a profit-share project.
Second Star has been in active development for some time, and we have a strong, dedicated team of developers working on this passion project. I wanted to emphasize the passion project aspect since, with this being profit-sharing, none of us is doing this to get rich. :) However, if the game sells even one copy, we operate on an equal profit-sharing model.
About the Game: Second Star is a first-person sci-fi narrative adventure. You play as Dr. Sam Lee, the science officer of the Persistence. You and your crew are tasked with locating the Second Star, a ship that has been missing for ten years.
We have a free-to-play demo available to try on Steam; however, I should caveat that we released it back in 2021, so there have been some changes made to the game since then. You can watch the trailer on the website and steam page to get an idea of how we approach cutscenes currently.
