The Opportunity Our cinematic 3D animations are a signature part of what makes this channel legendary. They open videos, tell stories, and set the tone for everything we do.
We're hiring 2-3 3D Cinematic Animators to create stunning, cinematic-quality 3D animations for video content and in-game cutscenes for our VR game studio. Create cinematic 3D animations - Produce high-quality, fully rendered cinematic sequences in Blender for video intros, story-driven shorts, and standalone animated content. Think short films, not motion graphics
Direct the visual storytelling - You're not just an animator pressing render. You'll plan shot composition, camera movement, lighting design, pacing, and scene flow - making sure every shot connects to the next and serves a bigger narrative
Render cinematic scenes for 3D models - Take existing 3D character models and environments and bring them to life with professional-grade lighting, atmospherics, and visual polish. Build in-game cutscenes - Create cutscenes and cinematic moments for CurlyBlue's VR game titles. You'll bridge the gap between video content and the game universe - same characters, same world, same visual standard
Collaborate on creative direction - Work directly with the creative team to develop concepts, storyboards, and visual treatments. Push the visual bar higher - Every project should be better than the last. Blender expert - Professional-level proficiency in Blender for 3D animation, rendering, lighting, and compositing. Ability to work fast without compromising quality. We move at a pace that traditional studios don't - you need to deliver cinematic-quality work on content timelines
English fluency is required (written and verbal).

Bonus Points
Experience with VR game art pipelines or real-time rendering for game engines (Unity/Unreal)
Storyboarding or pre-visualization experience
Motion graphics, VFX compositing, or particle effects skills
Most 3D animators make work that lives in a render folder or gets shown at a team review. Your work will be watched by millions of people - on a channel that gets more monthly views than most TV networks. You'll see comments from fans reacting to scenes you created. You'll watch your animations trend.

This is also a rare dual role - you'll create content for AND build cinematic moments inside VR games played by hundreds of thousands of people. Your animation will be both watched and experienced.

We're looking for artists who see themselves as part of something bigger - where every shot you create connects to a world, a story, and a brand that's growing every single day.
