- Have a decent understanding of the core skills - Modelling, Texture, Lighting/Presentation and use of a game engine

- Must be able to commit at least 10 hours per week (that's roughly 3-4 evenings or 1 evening + 1 full day minimum)

- Actively communicate with your team

- Be flexible - Ideally, everyone gets to work on what they want but you may need to do some of the less hero work but that doesn't mean you can't make it worthy of sitting on your portfolio

- Little more flex - Teams are often made of multiple time zones, you may have to be a bit flexible to make meetings or figure out a system if you can't

- Be responsible for yourself - If you've committed to the team challenge you are expected to pull your weight. If you don't you will be removed from the challenge
