FLSA STATUS:Full Time, Exempt, Salary

We are seeking a passionate, creative, and technically skilled 3D & Virtual Production Designer to help define the future of storytelling for our brand, game studios, and partners. This role is ideal for a 3D artist who thrives at the intersection of cinematic design, world building, and hi-end 3D graphics.

You will be integral in designing, developing, and building high-fidelity 3D environments, virtual sets, and immersive backgrounds for virtual production, broadcast content, and video marketing initiative. Leveraging Unreal Engine as your primary world-building platform, you will create visually compelling environments that support both real-time production workflows and creative concept development, utilizing our studio’s state-of-the-art LED volume.

In addition to virtual production, you will help develop 3D motion graphics, animation sequences, broadcast graphic packages, and abstract 3D visual systems utilizing Cinema 4D and related tools. This position requires both artistic and technical expertise, balancing visual design aesthetics, lighting, asset creation, performance optimization, and production scalability.

The ideal candidate is deeply passionate about environment design, world-building, emerging storytelling technologies, and the convergence of gaming and entertainment production. You are equally comfortable developing photorealistic virtual environments, stylized motion design systems, and visually striking broadcast graphics. You stay current with evolving Unreal Engine workflows, virtual production techniques, real-time rendering technologies, and modern 3D design trends.

• Design, build, and maintain high-quality 3D environments, virtual sets, and digital worlds within Unreal Engine for virtual production, broadcast, and marketing content.
• Develop visually compelling environments that support storytelling, cinematography, lighting, real-time rendering, and LED volume workflows.
• Create and optimize assets, materials, shaders, landscapes, architecture, and environmental effects that meet both artistic and technical requirements.

• Establish lighting, atmosphere, mood, and visual fidelity standards within Unreal Engine environments.
• Ensure all environments are optimized for real-time performance while maintaining visual quality and artistic intent.

• Design and create 3D assets, animation sequences, and abstract visual systems in Cinema 4D for use across motion graphics, title sequences, broadcast graphic packages, and production content.
• Develop visual elements that integrate seamlessly between C4D and traditional motion design workflows.
• Support the creation of graphics packages, show opens, transitions, lower thirds, virtual stage elements, and event branding systems.

• Partner with technical teams to establish and improve virtual production workflows with Unreal Engine, C4D, Disguise, and Pixera.
• Maintain expertise in real-time rendering technologies and evaluate new tools, plugins, and workflows that improve efficiency, visual quality, and production scalability.
• Assist in troubleshooting technical challenges related to environment development, rendering, optimization, and virtual production integration.
• Document workflows, best practices, and technical processes to support team growth and operational consistency.
• Collaborate closely with creative and production teams throughout the creative process.
• Participate in creative reviews, concept development sessions, and production planning meetings.
• Present visual concepts, environment designs, and technical solutions to internal stakeholders and partners.
