  • Contribute strong conceptual thinking, ensuring ideas are strategically grounded and visually compelling
  • Work within advanced production workflows such as EXR and ACES, maintaining colour accuracy and consistency
  • Present creative ideas clearly and confidently to internal teams and clients
  • Demonstrate proficiency in editing (Adobe Premiere, After Effects), motion retouching (DaVinci), and emerging AI generation tools

Requirements:

  • Proven experience as a Senior Art Director or in a comparable art/design role with strong conceptual and executional capability
  • A portfolio demonstrating high-level craft across CGI, motion graphics, and digital storytelling
  • Strong foundation in art direction and motion design, with solid understanding of CGI production pipelines from modelling to post-production
