Job Description

We are seeking a highly experienced Freelance Storyboard Artist to collaborate on an episodic project. This role requires a professional who has an excellent knowledge of traditional cinematic storytelling as well as cutting-edge 3D production workflows. You will develop dynamic, narrative-driven storyboards that serve as the blueprint for an animation pipeline heavily reliant on real-time 3D technology (Unreal Engine).

Requirements

• Experience: Proven track record as a Storyboard Artist with extensive experience in episodic storytelling (animation, VFX, or cinematic gaming).
• 3D Workflow Integration: Deep understanding of how traditional boarding translates into 3D environments. Direct experience working alongside teams using Unreal Engine or similar real-time previsualization tools is essential.
• Cinematic Skillset: Mastery of cinematography principles, camera movement, composition, aspect ratios, and visual pacing.
• Technical Proficiency: Mastery of standard boarding software (e.g., Storyboard Pro, Photoshop) alongside familiarity with 3D space/blocking tools.
• Professionalism: Strong communication skills, a highly collaborative mindset, and the ability to work independently as a freelancer.

Key Responsibilities

• Create clear, expressive, and cinematically compelling storyboard panels based on scripts, outlines, and director notes.
• Establish strong composition, staging, camera angles, pacing, and character performance within an episodic structure.
• Incorporate 3D assets, environments, and basic camera block-ins to ensure storyboards translate accurately into a real-time 3D pipeline.
• Collaborate closely with the director, previsualization teams, and Unreal Engine artists to optimize layout and continuity.
• Incorporate feedback and deliver clean, organized project files under tight episodic deadlines.

Submission Requirements

• Minimum 7 years of professional experience in animation, games, virtual production, VFX, or related visual media.
• At least 3 years in a senior-level role involving artistic leadership, visual development, or cinematic direction.
• Resume (must include start/end dates of each engagement listed).
• Please provide a link to your reel. Samples must demonstrate high-level cinematic staging, continuity, and clear examples of work created for or adapted to a 3D animation pipeline.
