To thrive as a Match Move Artist, you need a solid understanding of 3D tracking, camera movement, and compositing principles, often supported by a degree in visual effects, animation, or a related field. Proficiency in industry-standard software like Autodesk Maya, 3DEqualizer, PFTrack, and familiarity with compositing tools such as Nuke is typically essential.

What are Match Move Artists?

Match Move Artists, also known as matchmovers, are professionals in the visual effects (VFX) industry who align computer-generated imagery (CGI) with live-action footage. They use specialized software to track camera movements and recreate them in a 3D environment, ensuring that digital elements fit seamlessly into real-world scenes. This process is essential for integrating CGI characters, objects, or effects into films, television shows, and commercials. Match Move Artists work closely with other VFX departments to ensure accuracy and realism in the final product.

What are some common challenges Match Move Artists face when integrating live-action footage with CGI elements?

Match Move Artists often encounter challenges such as dealing with imperfect or inconsistent camera data, lens distortion, and unpredictable lighting conditions on set. Accurately tracking camera movement and replicating it digitally is crucial to ensure seamless integration of CGI elements with live-action footage. Collaborating closely with VFX supervisors and compositors is essential, as they provide feedback and guidance to refine the match move process. Attention to detail and problem-solving skills are key to overcoming these technical hurdles and producing realistic visual effects.

Job description

We're looking for a CGI Artist who thrives at being both highly-creative and technical. You'll collaborate closely with fellow CGI Artists, Industrial Designers, and Program Managers to produce high-fidelity 3D assets, photorealistic renders, and captivating animations that will appear across our brand and marketing channels. You bring deep expertise in leading 3D modeling, rendering, and image editing software, and you thrive under tight deadlines without sacrificing quality. You're self-motivated yet collaborative, a strong communicator, and a sharp technical problem solver.
We're open to both full-time and contract opportunities.
Thuma's Headquarters is based in the historic Presidio neighborhood of San Francisco. The role involves four days in the office each week and occasional additional days as needed.
In recognition of the personal and professional benefits that team members gain from time spent together in person, we organize a range of events throughout each year designed to bring our entire team together!
Key Responsibilities
  • Produce high-fidelity 3D materials and models of complex forms - including soft goods
  • Produce photorealistic renders and animations
  • Help streamline 3D pipelines and post-production workflows
  • Support storyboarding and image lists
  • Collaborate with render partners as needed
  • Manage external render projects as needed

This Might Describe You
  • You're deeply detail-oriented
  • Fluent in modern generative AI tools
  • Drawn to design and architecture
  • You work efficiently and independently
  • Push for quality without needing to be asked
  • You move fast and stay organized
  • Have strong problem-solving skills
  • Have strong interpersonal skills

What You'll Need
Your portfolio reflects an exceptional eye for craft - the kind of elevated, editorially-driven work that defines brands known for setting the visual standard. You understand what it means to produce imagery with real art direction behind it: considered, polished, and unmistakably intentional. That level of taste and execution is what you bring to every project.
Additionally:
  • 3+ years of experience as a CGI Artist
  • Proficiency in Blender or confidence in becoming proficient within a 2-month timeframe
  • Ability to design and execute compelling motion graphics
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite
  • Strong color editing and correction skills
  • Experience using render farms
  • Skilled at working to a brief and hitting deadlines
  • Experience leading end-to-end 3D and 2D production workflows
  • A sharp eye for accurately scoping turnaround time

Why Join Us
  • 401(k): Participation in our 401(k) program with company matching up to 6% of your contributions.
  • Benefits*: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with generous employer contributions, 100% paid parental leave, and company-sponsored One Medical and WellHub memberships.
  • Equity: Participation in employee stock option plan.
  • Flexible by Design: We operate with a high-performance mindset, paired with thoughtful flexibility-flexible hours, flexible PTO, and a hybrid approach that supports both focus and balance.
  • Time to Recharge: Enjoy 13 company holidays each year to rest, reset, and celebrate what matters most.
  • Employee Discount**: 40% off almost all Thuma products.
  • Cell Phone Stipend: $100 per month to support work-related phone use.
  • Commute Reimbursement: Up to $150 per month for commuting to our office.
  • Room Upgrade: A complimentary product credit upon joining, valued at up to $3,000.

** Some exclusions may apply
* Eligibility for compensation, benefits, and perks may vary based on employment status (e.g., full-time, part-time, temporary), work schedule, and applicable holiday policies, and are subject to the terms of the relevant plans and company guidelines.
$80,000 - $120,000 a year
