  • High proficiency with modeling and texturing tools within common 3d packages (e.g.Maya, Blender, Substance Painter, ZBrush, or similar)
  • Unreal Engine: Strong generalist skills working in Unreal Engine would be an advantage, to assemble an aesthetically pleasing environment, manage levels and sequencer, and ensure all assets are correctly imported with experience in advanced lighting and look development within Unreal Engine.
  • Coding: Familiarity with scripting and coding in Python/Mel would be an advantage as would Unreal Engine coding knowledge such as developing small-scale tools, scripts, or blueprints to assist the Previs team.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and visual communication skills, with the ability to take complex feedback and rapidly iterate
  • An interest in Machine Learning and experimenting with it's application in Previs would be an advantage
