Please note this position is hybrid and requires regular days in our London studio so we cannot accommodate fully remote working. We are able to provide VISAs and relocation support for this role.
Framestore brings together world-class producers, artists, and technologists to craft visually striking work across advertising, episodic, and immersive productions. Our teams blend creative ingenuity with cutting-edge technology to deliver high-end visual effects, immersive storytelling, and premium content for global clients, brands, and broadcasters.
Framestore combines talent and technology to bring life to everything we create. Driven by creativity and inspired by the future, we set out every day to reframe the possible.
The Role
As a Visual Development Artist, you'll work within our shot-delivery team. While we use the working title 'Visual Development,' this role focuses on shot execution rather than concept art or look development. You'll be part of a compositing and 3D team that uses generative AI tools to deliver production-ready work.
You'll execute shots from inception to final delivery, and at times prepare generated assets for other departments. Drawing on your experience in both 2D and 3D workflows, you'll use generative AI to achieve production-level finals that meet client expectations and project deadlines.
What you’ll do:
Create high-end visuals across styles ranging from realistic to stylised
Use 2D tools like Nuke and ComfyUI as a core part of your daily workflow
Integrate generative tools into traditional VFX workflows to explore what is possible and deliver shots
Collaborate closely with artists and supervisors to ensure the visual development phase supports a smooth transition into the 2D/3D pipeline
Present your work and creative process clearly in small group settings and client reviews
Experiment with emerging technologies to keep our workflows at the cutting edge
What we’re looking for:
Someone with strong professional experience in a VFX environment, with a particular focus on Nuke compositing. A creative thinker with strong problem-solving skills, comfortable experimenting with new tools, techniques, and workflows. Open-minded and communicative, with the ability to clearly break down and explain their creative process, and confident in presenting work and ideas to others. They have a genuine interest in generative tools and how these can support creative development, and are respectful of different working styles, including varying levels of process sharing.
You might also have:
Experience with 3D packages like Blender
Familiarity with real-time engines, especially Unreal Engine
Knowledge of scripting or technical problem-solving using Python
Accessibility Statement
Our London studio is fully accessible, with step-free entry, accessible toilets on all floors, and quiet spaces available. We are committed to supporting disabled colleagues and providing an inclusive workplace for everyone.
