Luxury Jewellery CGI & AI Film Artist | Cinematic Storytelling, VFX & Product Animation

We are building ICEOING, a new luxury jewellery brand focused on distinctive design, strong symbolism, craftsmanship and cinematic storytelling. We are looking for an exceptional CGI artist, cinematic director, AI filmmaker, or small creative studio capable of transforming our jewellery designs into high-end cinematic visual experiences. This is not a standard jewellery rendering job. We already work with jewellery CAD designers and can provide production-ready 3D/CAD models of our pieces. The jewellery design itself is already created. We are looking for a creative partner who can take these assets and build an entire visual world around them through a professional combination of: • High-end CGI and 3D animation • Cinematic product visualization • VFX and compositing • AI-assisted filmmaking where appropriate • Advanced transitions and transformations • Photorealistic jewellery materials, diamonds, gemstones and reflections • Cinematic lighting and environment design • Creative direction and visual storytelling • Sound design, music integration and cinematic editing Our Vision We do not want simple product rotations or generic AI-generated jewellery videos. Our goal is to create a recognizable cinematic universe for ICEOING, where every jewellery piece has its own story, symbolism and visual world, while remaining part of one coherent luxury brand language. For example, one of our jewellery concepts features an eye-inspired symbolic centerpiece. We do not simply want to show the piece rotating against a beautiful background. A cinematic concept could begin in an ancient architectural environment, where a mysterious eye is carved into stone. The environment slowly comes alive through light, atmosphere and movement. The eye awakens, and through a carefully designed transformation or cinematic transition, the scene reveals the actual ICEOING jewellery piece. Another concept could explore themes of leadership, legacy, royalty or power through architecture, environments and symbolism before eventually revealing a necklace, pendant, ring or crown-inspired piece. These examples are meant to communicate the level of storytelling and creative ambition we are looking for. We want the selected artist to contribute creatively, develop ideas with us and help turn jewellery concepts into cinematic stories - not simply execute prompts. Jewellery Accuracy Is Essential The jewellery itself must remain accurate to the supplied production-ready 3D/CAD model. AI-generated distortion of the jewellery is not acceptable. This includes: • Incorrect stone placement • Changing diamond cuts • Altered proportions • Inconsistent geometry between frames • Distorted logos or brand elements • Jewellery changing shape during AI-generated sequences We understand that different parts of a film may require different workflows. For example, environments or atmospheric elements may use AI-assisted techniques, while hero jewellery shots may require controlled CGI, 3D animation, VFX and compositing. We are looking for someone who understands how to combine these tools professionally. The goal is not simply to create a beautiful AI video. The goal is to create a believable luxury jewellery campaign. Ideal Experience We are especially interested in artists or studios with experience in: • Luxury jewellery or watch visualization • Premium product CGI • Photorealistic 3D rendering • Cinematic 3D animation • Blender, Cinema 4D, Houdini, Unreal Engine or equivalent workflows • VFX and compositing • Motion design • AI video workflows integrated with CGI and post-production • Cinematic lighting and art direction • Transformation sequences and advanced transitions • Short-form luxury campaign films for Instagram and digital campaigns Experience specifically in jewellery is highly valuable, but exceptional work in watches, luxury fashion accessories, perfume, automotive, technology or other premium product categories may also be relevant. What We Need From You Please do not apply with only a generic showreel or a copy-paste proposal. In your application, please provide: 1. Your three strongest portfolio examples closest to luxury jewellery, watches, fashion accessories or premium product films. 2. At least one example involving cinematic storytelling, transformation sequences or advanced VFX. 3. A short explanation of how you would keep an exact production-ready jewellery CAD model visually consistent while integrating it into an AI-assisted cinematic environment. 4. A brief explanation of your workflow: which parts you would create in traditional 3D/CGI, which parts could use AI, and which parts would be handled through VFX, compositing and post-production. 5. Your exact role in each portfolio project you submit. 6. The software and AI tools you personally use in your workflow. Creative Collaboration We are looking for more than technical execution. The right person should be able to look at a jewellery piece, understand its symbolism and ask: What world does this piece belong to? What story can we tell around it? How can we reveal the jewellery in a way people remember? We want someone who can bring ideas to the table and help develop a distinctive visual identity for ICEOING over time. We are not looking for the cheapest freelancer. We are looking for a high-level, long-term creative partner who can help develop a recognizable cinematic language for ICEOING across multiple jewellery collections. If the first collaboration is successful, there is potential for ongoing work across rings, pendants, necklaces, bracelets and future bespoke pieces. Important: To confirm that you have read the complete job description, begin your application message with the word “ICEOING”. Applications that do not begin with “ICEOING” may not be considered.
