About

Description

As VFX artists, we produce photorealistic, computer-generated imagery. In feature films, television, and, increasingly, online and console gaming, this position necessitates the seamless incorporation of these effects into live-action. To build computer-generated creatures, crowds, and stunt doubles, we use cutting-edge technology. We persuade the audience that what they're seeing is real. We work on films, television shows, and video games and use software to produce animations and digital effects.

Core tasks:

  • realizing and designing computer-generated characters
  • creating graphics for video games and smartphone apps
  • following the orders of the customer and the supervisor
