Previs Artist

Are you passionate about cinematic storytelling and dynamic camera work? Do you love crafting the visual backbone of epic sequences before the first frame is rendered? Then come join us at DIGIC as a Previs Artist!

About the Role

You’ll work closely with the Director, Cinematographer, and Lead Previs Artist to help define the visual style and rhythm of our high-end CG productions. Your work will form the blueprint that guides the rest of the production – from camera layouts and scene blocking to the early beats of animation.

If you enjoy being part of a creative, technically sophisticated pipeline and you’re not afraid of deadlines, this is the job for you.

• Creating staging, camera layouts, and animatics based on the storyboard and directorial guidance

• On-set presence during mocap shoots when needed, under the direction of the Assistant Director

• Building scenes using existing layouts and assets, including placement of key characters, props, and FX

• Adding rough lighting elements and atmosphere, and blocking out major animation beats

• Finalizing camera motions (including shake), shot creation, blastouts, and version updates

• Following technical requirements within DIGIC’s pipeline (e.g., dProject tracking and updates)

• Understanding input-output dependencies in the production pipeline and working accordingly

• Proactively flagging missing information, technical blockers, or quality concerns to Leads and Production

• Collaborating with other departments to ensure smooth delivery across the pipeline

You’re the one we’re looking for if you have:

• Strong visual storytelling skills and a good sense of rhythm and cinematography

• Understanding of camera work, editing, and animation basics

• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively under tight deadlines

• Openness to feedback and a drive for artistic and technical improvement

• Experience using Maya, at least one editing software (e.g., Premiere), and Photoshop

• Mid-level English proficiency

• At least 1–2 years of experience in a previs artist role

• Located and working according to the EU time zone

• Knowledge of film theory and asset production workflows

• On-set mocap or layout experience

• Comfort working with evolving pipelines and creative input from multiple departments

• A highly creative environment with some of the best talents in the industry

• Home office flexibility and a beautiful workspace in Graphisoft Park if you are located in Hungary or we can consider freelancers across the globe if you can overlap the CET/CEST working hours

• The chance to work on globally recognized AAA productions

• Real influence on the cinematic quality of our storytelling
