VFX Artist careers

A VFX Artist creates visual effects for films, television, and video games. You might work on everything from creating realistic explosions to designing fantastical environments. VFX Artists use specialised software to blend visual effects with live-action footage, enhancing the overall viewing experience. You’ll collaborate closely with directors and other team members to ensure that the visual effects align with the creative vision of the project.

VFX Artists play a crucial role in bringing imaginative concepts to life on screen. You’ll need to have a strong eye for detail and a thorough understanding of visual effects techniques. You’ll work under tight deadlines and be prepared to adapt quickly to feedback to achieve the desired visual impact.
