Codename Games is seeking a talented 3D artist to assist with asset creation for various ongoing projects.  You will be involved in the entire art process, from concept to asset creation and animation.  While you will be receiving direction from your project lead and a lead artist, you will also have an opportunity to influence the look of the games you work on.  The games you work on will be in several art styles across multiple platforms, so flexibility and adaptability are key.  This is an unpaid internship, so you must be able to receive course credit at an institution where you are currently enrolled.  As additional compensation, you will receive the professional credit of "Assistant Artist" on any games you work on.  You will also be free to use projects you work on in your personal portfolio.   Requirements:
