Recently, we have seen the giant network "Fairy World" released the position of the viewfinder job recruitment information, not only a good salary to achieve more than million, but also has a higher degree of freedom of work, which for many young people may be a better way to work. Next we come close to this "wonderful work" to see what this job is all about?
What does a game photographer do?
Game photographer, is the "fairy World" in the Research and development department is a job, responsible for purposeful study, tour, filming all over the scenery, for the game scene designers to provide the necessary material work. As the name suggests, is a self control time, with relatively high degrees of freedom, with the camera record "beauty" of the occupation.

In addition to framing, the game viewer is also involved in game development. In the early game development, the photographer needs to define the style and direction with the art staff and recommend some suitable proposals according to his own understanding of the relevant culture and history. After the evaluation, the photographer will be able to carry out the field. After the completion of the specified time, according to the performance and quality of the acquisition material, game designers will decide the final use of the material, by the 3D Modeler and the original painter based on the acquisition of material based in the game to restore.

Usually, the photographer to complete the work period is generally relatively broad, generally will be given half a year of work goals, within six months to complete, progress free control. The use of work, travel is also within the scope of the work, which makes this job relative to the traditional industry seems not so tight.
The interesting thing about this career is the chameleon trait, it is not only the game industry in the IT industry, but also seems to belong to the photographic industry, unlike the IT industry all day tense in the office to the computer as the "bitter force", nor as the photographer income directly depends on customer needs and no fixed. This profession is the "scenic it practitioner" that deals with landscapes, photos, games, or what it can call "the least bitter IT worker".
The photographer will also go to the company clerical and become an IT white-collar. When there is a need to go out, the photographer will be able to travel according to the needs of the project, like the working methods of the farming age. With the market, project personnel travel northward wide popular lines are different, the viewfinder of the target is generally the envy of Tibet, Yunnan, Sichuan, Hainan and other natural scenic spots.

The other side of the viewfinder is also about professionalism.
Breathing the fresh air of the mountain fields, watching the Four Seasons change, walking, catching natural beauty, wilderness, cafes are turned into offices. As a new career, the appearance of the game photographer makes a lot of young people who neither want to be a blue-collar, nor do they want to do an IT laborer every day to the computer.
But behind the bright side of higher pay, high degrees of freedom and high welfare, we also see another aspect of its work. This makes us feel that the process of looking for beauty is not simply to take pictures. In the fairy world, players experience every scene is likely to need to spend 2-3 weeks to collect in the scenic area, including different weather, morning and evening photos of different times, many are made by the framing teachers time squat shooting, can say a scene full of their labor and Sweat.
For reasons of work, the photographer needs to work in the scenic area for a long time, which can also cause many times not to be photographed like a regular tourist. You must always remember your task, and there is a strong purpose, sometimes the photographer because of the scenery along the way attract, leading to loss of the best scenery of the day, but also need to stay in the same scenic spot for a long time, after all, the task for the first, "extra work" can only be additional points.
In addition, the cost problem also "bothers" the framing work, as with market personnel, reimbursement of all reasonable travel expenses, accommodation standard for 500 yuan per night, usually seemingly enough to use the cost, to a specific time, for example, in the Golden Week, holidays, specific scenic spots due to lodging, the cost of the ticket has become inadequate, So in these days, the viewfinder often has to stop the framing work, which is also recommended by the company not to the viewing period. This does not seem to be a favorable condition for those who have a delaying habit.
Life is painful and happy
There is no perfect job and no perfect person in the world. "Pain and happiness" is the norm in this profession, and happiness comes from the length of the camera that can be taken, and the "pain" comes from an internal evaluation standard. "Why is the scrap rate so high?" are often asked by what they call "bosses", the higher the number, the more it means that your job may not be working as well as your standards, and that your job performance will be rated low. In a word, the viewfinder must meet the requirements of the project for the picture, or it will be deducted money.
One more thing you may not know, the game industry is a higher income level of the industry. A research and development art class wages generally around 10K, with different ranks, floating up to 15-20k. In this way, relative to the research and development team art position of the photographer's salary and has highlighted a great advantage. Of course, this is not a lot of work for other industries, where you can travel around with advanced cameras and get tens of thousands of dollars a month's salary.
