UI Artist The user interface artist is responsible for the design, implementation, and optimization of UI assets for an application. To design and implement user interface assets, the UI artist first works with game designers to understand necessary capabilities of the interface, including navigation, menu options, player modes, and weapon selection. The first step of the design process is to create a series of flowcharts that outline how the player will be able to navigate options through different levels and modes. These outlines may go through a number of revisions before the UI artist arrives at a final plan. Next, the UI artist designs the graphic elements of the interface, including menu animation, colours, fonts, textures, and other variables. They may begin with paper sketches that are reviewed in design meetings, and then deliver several digital mockups for final approval.
Montreal, Quebec, Canada Montreal is the most populous municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec and the second-most populous municipality in Canada as a whole, after Toronto. Originally called Ville-Marie, or "City of Mary", it is named after Mount Royal, the triple-peaked hill in the heart of the city. The city is centred on the Island of Montreal, which took its name from the same source as the city, and a few much smaller peripheral islands, the largest of which is Île Bizard. It has a distinct four-season continental climate with warm to hot summers and cold, snowy winters. Enticed by generous tax subsidies provided by the Québec government, several major game companies have opened large studios in the city. The technology software industry in Montreal is booming like never before. At present, it's the third largest in the world, playing host to such giants as Ubisoft, Eidos, Square Enix, Warner and Motive Studios (EA). In addition, there are over 200 independent studios in Montreal.
