• A strong understanding of video game animation development.
• A high level of proficiency with Maya (and ideally Motion Builder).
• Experience with 3^rd-person weapons/behaviors and full body/bipedal animations.
• An advanced understanding of motion editing (re-posing, re-timing and plusing mocap data).
• Experience animating cameras, together with an understanding of cinematography.
• Experience working closely with other domains - especially Designers, Engineers and Artists.
• Proactive work ethics and will take pride and responsibility for the success of our games.
