Layout Editor information

What is a layout editor?

Layout editors are professionals responsible for arranging text, images, and other elements on a page or screen to create visually appealing and effective designs for print or digital publications. They work closely with writers, graphic designers, and editors to ensure that content is organized logically and presented in a way that enhances readability and user experience. Layout editors use specialized software to format pages, adjust spacing, select fonts, and maintain consistency with the publication's style guidelines.

How does a layout editor typically collaborate with writers, designers, and other team members during a publication cycle?

A Layout Editor works closely with writers to ensure that the text fits the design templates while maintaining readability and visual appeal. They also partner with graphic designers and photographers to incorporate images and graphics that complement the content. Communication and feedback are ongoing throughout the publication cycle, with frequent revisions required to align with editorial standards, deadlines, and branding guidelines. This collaborative approach ensures that the final product is cohesive, professional, and meets the publication's objectives.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a layout editor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Layout Editor, you need a keen eye for design, attention to detail, and a strong understanding of typography and visual composition, often backed by a degree in graphic design or a related field. Familiarity with publishing software such as Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, and QuarkXPress is typically required, along with knowledge of print and digital production processes. Strong communication, time management, and collaborative skills help Layout Editors effectively work with writers, editors, and production teams. These abilities are crucial for producing visually appealing, accurate, and reader-friendly publications that meet project deadlines and standards.

3D Product Render Artist

Job description

The Role

We'd like to conduct an experiment. Visit dbrand.com. Scroll through our product catalogue. As you're scrolling, try to guess which images are real-life photography, and which are renders.
If you're struggling, it's because we did a good job. Think you can do an even better one?
We're looking for a 3D Product Render Artist: someone who can take a raw CAD file from our industrial designers and turn it into an image asset so convincing, it'll make that test you just took even more challenging.
We hate to break it to you, but you're probably not that someone. If you agree, save us all some time and close this tab. If you'd like to prove us wrong... keep reading.
The Environment

Still here? Excellent. dbrand thrives where other eCommerce companies have failed because our customers enjoy a revolutionary degree of commitment, engagement, and accessibility from us. Maintaining an internal culture of excellence, the likes of which our highly-engaged audience demands and deserves, is critical to dbrand's current and future success. 
As our 3D Product Render Artist, that pressure is keenly felt. dbrand's audience owns the exact devices you're rendering - they know what the chamfer looks like, they know how the anodization plays with the light. They have opinions - strong ones, posted publicly, with a high degree of visibility. Get a highlight wrong and you'll hear about it before the webpage has finished loading.
Your role is to make sure they never get the chance. You'll live within the Photography team, feeding renders to our website, social channels, and packaging. You'll work with our Graphic Designers and Software Engineers to animate product pages, and with our Videography team to build 3D scenes and motion graphics. Full pipeline, start to finish: refine, layout, shade, light, render, animate.
At dbrand, your renders won't die in a slide deck. They'll be the first thing millions of people see when a new iPhone drops, and the last thing our competitors see before they try and fail to copy your work.
Before you get that opportunity, you'll need to prove yourself. Let's see if you've got what it takes...
  • Agile: You're nimble. You're adaptable. You thrive in an environment where priorities can change in an instant.
  • Analytical: Your decisions are driven by only one thing: data. You continue to master all the tools necessary to surface insights.
  • Collaborative: You enjoy purposeful meetings. You value the contributions and perspectives of your colleagues as much as you do your CEO.
  • Curious: You're eager to learn new concepts and master new skills. There's no useless tool in your arsenal.
  • Disciplined: You never allow the details to slip, understanding that every bit of minutiae forms the bigger picture. 
  • Enthusiastic: You exhibit a contagious passion for solving problems OR finding solutions. 
  • Innovative: You develop new approaches to complex problems. 
  • Perfectionist: You persist until the smallest detail has been optimized. Giving less than 100% is not an option.
  • Persistent: You've never failed. You've only experienced speed bumps on your path to success.
  • Reliable: You live up to both verbal and written agreements. You can be trusted to work effectively, without oversight.
The Responsibilities

In order to make a positive impact as part of our team, your focus in this role will be to:
  • Create realistic product renders for the dbrand website.
  • Create animated 3D elements for dbrand drop pages.
  • Create ad-hoc 3D elements as needed.
  • Nice to have: Create animated 3D scenes and motion graphics for dbrand videos.

The Qualifications
  • 5 years' professional experience
  • Proficient knowledge of photographic and cinematic techniques (composition, advanced lighting, depth of field, editing) related to computer graphics production.
  • Experience producing high-quality, photo-realistic product renders.
  • Basic skills in 3D modelling / rigging / animation.
  • Advanced skills in shading / texturing / UV mapping / lighting / rendering.
  • Knowledge of converting industry standard CAD (STEP,  STL, OBJ) files into workable 3D assets for production.
  • Advanced competency in CG software (Blender is preferred, otherwise proficiency in Maya or Cinema 4D). Additional skills in Houdini, 3ds Max, are Unreal Engine are an asset, but not required.
  • Ability to take Industrial CAD files of products, and take them through a full pipeline (refine,  layout, shade, light, render, animate) to create technically proficient and creatively advanced cinematic compositions (i.e. reels for YouTube videos and TikTok, etc.).
  • Core competency in Adobe software suite (Photoshop, Illustrator).
  • Nice to have: Experience creating high-concept creative advertising animations.
  • Nice to have: Basic knowledge of titling / motion graphics / captioning / transitions.
  • Nice to have: Basic knowledge of video codecs / compression schemes / aspect ratios.
  • Nice to have: Experience with 3D motion graphics design (2D motion graphics design is an asset).
  • Nice to have: Basic knowledge of CGI VFX techniques (3D tracking, match move, HDRI lighting, etc.)
  • Ability to self-direct and take ownership of a project within a given creative mandate.
  • An impeccable communication style - your grasp on the English language is flawless.
  • Detail-oriented, self-sufficient, resourceful, organized, and proactive.
  • The instinct to help teammates thrive and the openness to learn from past experiences.
  • The ability to solve complex problems (or know where to find the answer).
  • Commitment to long-term growth and learning opportunities.
The job starts between $70,000 and $90,000 per year based on experience, with health, dental, vision, GRSP, and profit-sharing benefits.  The position is fully remote, but when required, our HQ is located a few minutes west of Pearson Airport.
Still think you have what it takes to thrive in our agile, high-growth, fast-paced environment?
To be perfectly honest, we doubt it.

You're welcome to prove us wrong.
