  • The ability to multi-task & prioritise
  • C4D, blender and/or Unreal skills (these are a bonus)

Are you comfortable with:

  • Storyboarding 
  • Animation of projects solo and in collaboration with our Senior and Mid-weight Motion Designers
  • Adobe Illustrator

  • Delivering your projects on time and within budget
  • Assisting client services in the quoting phase by providing accurate time estimates to briefs
