Someone capable of inventing a world, then helping us turn that world into a finished show. WHAT YOU WILL DO You will help create the visual language of original entertainment projects from the ground up. This can include Character design Sets and environments Locations Props and wardrobe Visual motifs Colour, atmosphere and mood Cinematic framing and composition Storyboard frames Visual sequencing and storytelling Maintaining consistency across characters, locations and scenes You will work closely with the creative team to take a project from an initial idea through to a complete visual world.
