We are on the lookout for a talented and super keen Junior Lighting and Compositing/Unreal artist to join our team on a new 3D series.
Our L&C artists are masters of mood, light and detail. Their day-to-day focuses on tailored render layers, artful colour grading and production deadlines, whilst meeting that all important brief from our Directors and Clients. They are also greatcollaborators, workingas a team to share and develop their technical and artistic skills to deliver high quality content for our audiences.
Day to Day:
* Creating lighting scenes in Unreal with assets from the animation and effects departments and then compositing these rendered shots in Nuke to create the final shot
* Tweaking provided light rigs, render set-ups and compositing templates to achieve the required look of your shot
* Monitoring your renders to ensure they are within a given render time budget
* Working as part of a team of lighting and compositing artists, and regularly communicating with your Team Lead and the Lighting & Compositing Supervisor
