If you have been re-directed to this post because you where browsing in the Collab forum, please make sure you apply the job via our Website, we will be able to get in contact with you MUCH faster.

This Job/Position is not required to actually start until 1-3 months from now, we would prefer to make an early arrangment and see what you can do. Before applying, PLEASE make sure you send a portfolio or a demo image/redesigned GUI.

 

The GUI Designer does not require to code the GUI itself, we'll do that. ;)

We would also "prefer" the canidate to use PhotoShop incase we need to edit a position of a box or something. If you are doing the GUI on freeware and we can download it to use the project files, we'll be happy to accept you.

 

What we do?

CentralComposers is a Sample music library developer focusing around Native Instrument's Kontakt. We've sucessfully release 2 commercial libraries for our standards and we are looking to up our GUI in future libraries. 

Why the GUI?

We plan to up our level with our GUI design because it let's users have easier control over our Custom Instrument Script which allows them to use controls which manipulate and enhance the samples we provide. A slick and useful GUI will help user's create complete new sounds and have unique options compared to other libraries out in the industry.

 

GUI Designer

CentralComposers is looking for a GUI designer to create a GUI for our Music "Engine".

ROLE:

• Come up with idea's for a GUI
• Create a Modern/Industrial GUI
• Create Suttle GUI Controls like Buttons, Knobs, Sliders, Navigation controls... (NOT essential) 
• Take an exsisting idea and expand on it
• Re-design a GUI (If this is the case...)
• Provide the Project files with the image (so I can make any changes if needed, such as text, knob size...)
• Provide the control files (such as buttons, knobs, sliders etc...)

Here are some examples of current GUI's in our Kontakt Libraries:

 

We require the canidate to have experience with GUI designing and also designing buttons, knobs, sliders.

IMPORTANT: It is not essential for the canidate to design buttons, knobs, sliders as I can do them myself or use previous controls I've created such as in the pictures above. But it would be a bonus on my side of working.

 

You must be able to:

Communicate regulary when needed to. (not everyday!)

Design the GUI around information and plans.

Work in deadlines such as 1-3 months.

Work in a team (if their are any other GUI designers specifically for the controls)

Create a modern/industrial GUI - Take a look at these GUI's, we expect along the lines but not the same as:

• http://www.heavyocity.com/hyv5wp/wp-content/uploads/DM-307-Grid-Page.jpg

We don't expect you to create GUI's like this, this is NOT what we want. It's just to give you an idea of the kind of GUI designing compared to a Mobile phone or Desktop game.
