Full job description
We are seeking a highly skilled and technically minded Visualization Artist to bridge the gap between cinematography, VFX pipelines, and real-time technology. In this role, you will be responsible for setting up complex cinematic camera rigs, configuring lens profiles, and using Unreal Engine as a core visualization tool for filmmakers.
Your primary directives will be the technical orchestration of virtual cameras, shot blocking, real-time lighting integration, and ensuring seamless asset data flow across our VFX and live-action pipelines.
Ideal candidate is able to take shots from initial layout and blocking all the way through final pixel.
Responsibilities

- Expert Proficiency in Unreal Engine: Deep knowledge of Sequencer, Cine Camera Actors, Camera Rig Rail/Crane components, and the virtual camera (VCam) system, with demonstrated on-set virtual production (VProd) experience.
- Cinematic Literacy: Strong understanding of real-world photography, cinematography principles, framing, shot composition, and camera movement, including practical implementation of advanced camera projection techniques.
- Pipeline Experience: Proven track record working within an established film production or high-end VFX pipeline. Experience with USD (Universal Scene Description), camera tracking protocols, and leveraging generative AI tools (e.g., ComfyUI, open-source models, Veo, Gemini) to optimize production workflows is highly desirable.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate technical real-time jargon into practical filmmaking terminology for DPs and Directors.
- A keen eye for cinematic pacing, scale, and photographic realism.
