We are inviting 3D Artists and VFX experts with experience creating computer generated scenes and assets to join our global network for a high level gaming project.

  • In some cases, making variations to scenes and re-rendering

  • Experience as a 3D, Technical or VFX Artist or Compositor in games, film or digital production
  • Experience with Unreal Engine, Unity & Houdini, Maya / Blender / Cinema4D and similar
  • Expertise in rendering, lighting and texturing
  • Comfortable using technical workflows and tools
  • Existing assets for licensing, with scenes separated into coherent, compositable layers
Why join this project?

This is an opportunity to licence your existing assets and to apply your expertise in VFX design on a flexible, ad hoc basis, in order to help improve AI systems for video generation with better controllability for creators.
