Senior 3D CGI / VFX Artist & AI Video Creator for Premium LED Display (Luxury Retail)

Installation We are looking for an exceptional CGI / VFX Artist to create stunning, immersive visual experiences for a unique premium LED installation in our luxury piercing, jewelry, and tattoo studio. This is NOT a software development project. We are searching for someone capable of producing cinematic, photorealistic, AI-assisted and VFX-heavy content comparable to modern movie visuals, luxury advertisements and high-end CGI sequences. Think less "motion graphics" and more: • Unreal Engine cinematics • CGI environments • Photorealistic AI video • Luxury brand commercials • Hollywood style visual effects • Abstract particle simulations • Fire simulations • Water simulations • Galaxy environments • Underwater worlds • Premium product cinematics Our goal is to make visitors stop walking because the display looks alive. -------------------------------------------------- ## THE INSTALLATION We are building a premium piercing & jewelry and tattoo flagship store in Zurich. The main attraction will be a custom ultra-wide LED display we already bought. Specifications: • Custom L-shaped LED display • Total visible length: approximately 4.2 meters • Height: approximately 33 cm • Pixel Pitch: P0.9 (0.9 mm) • NovaStar VX400 Pro • NovaStar TB40 • NovaStar A8S Pro Receiving Cards Additional displays: • 2 × Samsung QM55C Professional Displays (55") • 1 × Samsung QM43C Professional Display (43") Additional hardware: • 4 × individually addressable RGBW LED rings (WLED controlled) • 2 × Sonos Era 100 speakers Playback hardware has not yet been finalized. Possible playback systems include: • Mini PC • Industrial PC • Samsung SoC • Raspberry Pi • or another professional playback solution -------------------------------------------------- ## OPTIONAL IMMERSIVE FEATURES If technically possible, we would like to explore additional immersive effects: • synchronize the RGBW LED rings with the displayed content • ambient audio synchronized with the animation • underwater sounds • fire ambience • space ambience • rain • city atmosphere • seasonal sound effects Experience with these features is a strong advantage but not mandatory. -------------------------------------------------- ## THE TYPE OF CONTENT WE WANT We are NOT looking for simple After Effects animations. We are looking for premium CGI content. Examples: • photorealistic fire • blue fire • green fire • plasma • energy effects • magical particles • smoke simulations • liquid simulations • galaxies • nebulas • black holes • luxury jewelry cinematics • macro close-ups • cinematic product reveals • floating diamonds • premium logo reveals • logo emerging from fire • logo made from water • logo made from particles • logo made from smoke • logo transforming into liquid metal • aquarium scenes • realistic fish • jellyfish • whales • corals • underwater caves • glowing creatures • futuristic sci-fi environments • abstract luxury visuals • floating crystals • premium background loops • seasonal content • Halloween • Christmas • Valentine's Day • Summer • Zurich city inspired scenes Everything should feel luxurious, cinematic and premium. No cheap looking templates. No basic social media animations. -------------------------------------------------- ## SOFTWARE Use whatever creates the best possible result. Examples: • Blender • Cinema 4D • Houdini • Unreal Engine • Adobe After Effects • Nuke • DaVinci Resolve • ComfyUI • Flux • Stable Diffusion • Midjourney • Veo • Kling • Runway or any comparable professional workflow. The final quality is far more important than the software used. -------------------------------------------------- ## FIRST GOAL Within approximately three weeks we want enough finished content for our store opening. The first delivery should contain multiple seamless looping animations that can run continuously throughout the day. -------------------------------------------------- ## LONG TERM This is not a one-time project. We are looking for a long-term creative partner. Over the coming years we want to build a large library containing hundreds of premium animations, product videos, seasonal visuals and branded content. -------------------------------------------------- ## WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR Someone with experience creating: • CGI • VFX • AI-generated video • Unreal Engine cinematics • Luxury commercials • Digital Signage • LED installations • Large panoramic displays • Movie quality visual effects A strong portfolio is much more important than formal qualifications. -------------------------------------------------- ## TO APPLY Please include: • your best CGI / VFX work • AI-generated videos • Unreal / Blender / Houdini work • Digital Signage projects • LED display projects • luxury brand work • looping animations • portfolio • Vimeo / YouTube / Behance • estimated delivery time Applications without a strong portfolio will not be considered.
