3D Video Animator

ummary: 

We're looking for a versatile creative who can both build and finish — animating high-quality 3D content in Unreal Engine and taking projects all the way through post-production as a skilled video editor. You'll own the full pipeline from real-time scene creation to final cut, producing marketing videos and brand content that's polished at every stage. 

Responsibilities: 

• Design and animate high-quality 3D sequences in Unreal Engine 5 for marketing campaigns, product launches, and brand storytelling. 

• Build and maintain real-time scene environments, lighting setups, and post-processing pipelines optimized for marketing deliverables. 

• Develop and animate 3D assets, motion graphics, and product visualizations in Cinema 4D, integrating them into Unreal Engine workflows. 

• Edit and assemble marketing videos, product reels, social content, and brand films from raw footage and 3D renders through to final delivery. 

• Handle color grading, audio mixing, and finishing in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. 

• Composite 3D renders with live-action footage, motion graphics, and visual effects using After Effects. 

• Manage media organization, project files, and version control across edit projects. 

• Work closely with the creative, brand, and marketing teams to translate briefs into compelling visual narratives end-to-end. 

• Manage multiple projects simultaneously, hitting deadlines across both animation and editing workstreams. 

Qualifications: 

• 3–5 years of professional experience spanning both 3D animation and video editing, with a portfolio or reel demonstrating both skill sets in marketing or commercial work. 

• Hands-on proficiency with Unreal Engine 5 — particularly Sequencer, Lumen lighting, and real-time cinematic workflows. 

• Working knowledge of Cinema 4D for motion graphics, asset creation, and animation, with output integrated into UE5 pipelines. 

• Proficiency in Redshift rendering within Cinema 4D — including lighting, shading, materials, and optimizing render settings for marketing output 

• Confident video editing in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve, including color grading and audio finishing. 

• Proficiency in Photoshop and Adobe After Effects for compositing 3D renders with live-action footage and motion graphics. 

• Strong sense of visual storytelling, pacing, and camera craft across both 3D and editorial contexts. 

• Ability to manage projects independently from brief to delivery, juggling multiple deadlines without losing quality. 

Other Qualifications: 

• Experience shooting and directing video, not just editing — comfortable on a small production set.  

• Knowledge of Houdini, Arnold, or Octane working on and rendering for Cinema 4D projects. 

Physical Demands: 

• Able to work in an office environment (Constant)  

• Able to carry and move various production equipment and video/photography gear up to 25 lbs. (Occasional)
