Our environment artists work within a global, supportive and multi-talented team altering and extending environments in live action plates or designing, composing and rendering environments from the smallest blade of grass to entire galaxies. They need excellent communication skills to collaborate and interact with multiple departments and colleagues around the world, ensuring their artistic and technical solutions integrate with the rest of the pipeline.
