Our studio provides a safe, trusting, and empowering environment for our game teams to unleash their creativity across massive brands.

• Align and unify feedback from stakeholders and translate that into actionable plans by holding regular reviews, and provide clear, meaningful feedback to members of the cinematic team.
• Understand both the game narrative and gameplay design to assess how different features could affect or support the experience.
• Work with the team to previz key scenes for gameplay, conversations and cinematics. Work with design, art, narrative, and tech partners to understand implementation requirements.
• Work with the team to create gold standard content to determine benchmark processes, tools and techniques. These example assets will also serve as guides for new animators and outsource partners.
• Responsible for the generation of quality cinematic content across all disciplines including: storyboarding, animatic, previz, blocking, animation, editing, cinematography, lighting and VFX.
• Prep for performance capture shoots with the narrative team.
• Work closely with the performance capture director to establish blocking and staging.
• Manage senior members of the cinematic team and provide mentorship and feedback to the larger team.

Qualifications :
