Real Time Graphics Artist

Key Responsibilities

Vizrt and Unreal Engine Integration: Build real-time scenes in Vizrt Artist. Ensure all assets are correctly imported, rigged, and optimized within the engine, and prescribed architecture is followed.
Real-Time Visual Fidelity: Create immersive environments with high-fidelity models, custom PBR shading, and dynamic lighting solutions, ensuring a balance between high-end visual impact and strict performance efficiency within the Vizrt and Unreal Engine ecosystems.
Blueprinting & Scripting: Build interactive logic and procedural systems using Vizrt scripts and Unreal Engine Blueprints to support live data integration and real-time graphics triggers.
Optimization & Profiling: Conduct rigorous performance profiling to ensure consistent frame rates (60fps+) for live broadcast and large-scale video wall playback.
Pipeline Development: Establish and maintain robust workflows between DCC tools (Maya/C4D/Blender) and real-time engines to streamline production.
R&D: Stay at the forefront of real-time technology, exploring new features (Lumen, Nanite, PCG) to enhance our production capabilities.
