Having established ourselves as a key player in Animation, we rely on our talented Character TD’s to create animation rigs for characters, creatures, props and vehicles that bring an Animated story to life.

Our team use their thorough knowledge of their character specializations to develop, test and maintain character motion and deformation set ups.

- Strong visual and artistic skills, and must be comfortable with the technical aspects of character/creature work where appropriate

**Nice to Have**
- Programming/scripting skills (Python, Maya aPI, C++) for module and tool development
