Role overview
We’re looking for a Game Capture Artist who can start immediately and join our award-winning team. You'll stage, shoot and scrutinise in-engine shots across specialised development builds to create the best content possible for our clients.
Our client list and fast growth come from a culture of no-waffle and a strong creative focus. The successful applicant will need to live those values and hit the ground running without heavy hand holding.
What are we looking for? Our Project Manager has a knack for the following skills:
- A passionate gamer with a broad appreciation of mobile, PC and console titles
- A willingness to learn each game and its project setup inside out, and to stay hands-on with it every day
- Someone who can adapt to game development builds and Unity projects that are always changing, including version updates, new scenes and shifting assets
- An understanding of game trends and how games are marketed across the gaming landscape
- Creative problem solving: finding ways around bugs, broken scenes and build issues to get the shot
- A keen eye for composition, camera movement, lighting and framing
- An eagerness to develop in-engine cinematography techniques and creative storytelling skills
- A collaborator who can work efficiently with creative, editorial and client-side development teams
- Strong proficiency in Unity (essential), including Cinemachine, Timeline, the Unity Recorder and working across URP/HDRP render pipelines
- Working knowledge of Unreal Engine, including Sequencer, Movie Render Queue and cine cameras (highly desirable)
- Previous experience in a game capture, in-engine cinematics or trailer production role (essential)
- Knowledge of Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro
- PC proficient, with experience capturing from both PC and mobile builds (Android/iOS)
Your duties:
- Create high-quality in-engine capture using game development builds and Unity projects. This means setting up cameras, staging scenes and characters, and rendering high-resolution, high-frame-rate footage through the Unity Recorder and, where needed, Unreal's Movie Render Queue
- Meet capture deadlines, which can sometimes be very tight, and manage your own time efficiently
- Keep a sharp eye on quality, pushing lighting, post-processing, resolution and detail levels to get the best possible image from each build
- Select and stage shots that meet the brief, telling a story through capture and showing off each game and its features in the best possible light
- Fully understand the latest build and project version of each game, and be the main point of contact for all game and engine updates
- Edit captured footage in After Effects and Premiere Pro, using editing techniques to make it as exciting as possible
- Build and maintain reusable capture setups, such as camera rigs, Timeline sequences and lighting presets, to speed up future work
- Gather high-quality assets (characters, environments, UI, renders) and export them from the engine when needed
