VFX Unreal Artists

Role Overview

Our CGI real-time artists are responsible for developing and delivering high-quality real-time CGI content across a wide range of projects, including live experiences, virtual productions, animations, still imagery, and configurator assets, to a high creative and execution standard. In addition to content creation, they provide technical support to team members and contribute to the ongoing development and innovation of real-time CGI workflows. The role supports scalable, global collaboration while complementing existing and future CGI pipelines. Working closely with other CGI team members, real-time artists help develop effective solutions by understanding both artistic and technical challenges and supporting projects on a day-to-day basis.
