• Design compelling shots, camera movements, compositions, and transitions
• Build complete sequences using Unreal Engine Sequencer

• Direct camera framing, lens choices, depth of field, camera movement, and overall shot composition
• Create establishing shots, dialogue scenes, action sequences, transitions, and environmental shots
• Work closely with game designers, environment artists, animators, and developers to bring scenes to life
• Use Unreal Engine’s lighting, VFX, post-processing, and rendering tools to achieve a high-quality cinematic look
• Iterate on scenes based on creative direction and feedback
• Prepare sequences for high-quality rendering and integration into the game/demo
What We’re Looking For
• Strong understanding of cinematography and visual storytelling
• Hands-on experience creating cinematics in Unreal Engine 5

What You’ll Be Working On
An ambitious, cinematic game built in Unreal Engine 5.
You’ll work directly inside the game environment to create sequences that showcase the world, characters, atmosphere, action, and story.
