  • Oversee the entire creative pipeline, from initial storyboarding and concept art to final execution, ensuring that all creative assets are consistent with the project's vision.
  • Manage and mentor a cross-functional team of 2D and 3D artists, animators, and designers, fostering a collaborative and productive work environment.
  • Work concurrently on multiple projects for various platforms (YouTube, TV, film) with differing visual requirements and deadlines.
  • Collaborate with producers, writers, and other department heads to align creative strategies with project objectives and brand goals.
  • Stay current with industry trends, new technologies, and emerging creative techniques to keep the company at the forefront of visual content production.
  • Act as the key stakeholder for all art and design decisions, providing clear, constructive feedback and ensuring all creative work meets project specifications and brand standards.

QUALIFICATIONS

  • Extensive experience with both 3D design and modeling, as well as a strong secondary focus on 2D design.
  • Expert-level proficiency with industry-standard software, including:
  • Unreal Engine
  • Blender
  • Maya
  • Demonstrated proficiency with traditional design tools (e.g., Adobe Creative Suite).
  • A portfolio showcasing a diverse range of successful projects and a variety of animation and VFX styles.
  • Exceptional communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to lead and inspire creative teams.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage time effectively while overseeing multiple projects simultaneously.
