As a forward thinking and innovative studio we are always looking for new technologies and techniques to develop and use in our games and make them even more engaging experiences for our customers.


We are excited to continue to grow our team and are always on the lookout for highly talented and motivated individuals, who are passionate about gaming and excited to join us on our ambitious journey!

Join us as a Cinematics Animator to craft dynamic, high-quality camera sequences for our cutting-edge mobile title!

 

Working closely with lead and principal animators, you’ll bring our game’s vision to life with compelling cinematics and in-game animation.

This role is perfect for someone with an eye for cinematic storytelling and a passion for animation.

 

 

 

About you:

 

You will join us with a strong grasp of animation principles, along with solid 3D generalist skills and broad CG knowledge. 

With experience showcasing your deep understanding of cinematography, dynamic camera work, and human character animation it's clear that you're passionate about your craft and about exploring new techniques and ways of working. You will also be joining us with experience using Layout, Previz, or cinematics for games (or related industries).
