Based in the heart of Leamington Spa, Pixel Toys have spent over a decade pushing the capabilities of mobile gaming. We have developed multiple award-winning titles, including: Warhammer 40,000: Freeblade and Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realm War. We’re now excited to be exclusively working on a new game, unlike ANYTHING we’ve done previously!
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!
The Role:
We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Animator to join us in delivering animation content and cinematics on a cutting-edge mobile title; bringing out the performance and embellishing mocap data for both body and face.
Working closely with the character art and technical teams, you will bring exciting characters to life and communicate rich personalities through your work.
We'd love for you to join and make the very most of opportunities to contribute ideas, concepts and technical solutions to enable us to build great games.
About you:
As a Senior Animator you will be comfortable working with motion capture and editing dense keyframe data, as well as being familiar with the retargeting process. You will also have a good understanding of cinematography and the creation of dynamic camera sequences (such as Previz and Cinematics).
On top of this, your showreel will be one that demonstrates a high level of skill in animating human characters.
You will also be confident in your ability to support and provide cover for the Lead Animator; ensuring animation processes, pipelines and documentation are adhered to in order to maintain the smooth running of the Animation team and asset production.
Being a strong communicator, you will also bring a positive, proactive and collaborative attitude with you to our already established and knowledgeable team.
Experience working on medium to large scale projects is extremely desirable, as well as some knowledge on the Unity game engine.
