Amazon Studios Virtual Production (ASVP) is looking for an ASVP Engine Engineer for our Unreal-based system. You will be going to work at the historic Culver Studios. Your job will be interfacing with production to meet their demands of the Unreal system. This includes supporting, developing, and hosting virtual production visualization services. This includes pitch-vis, virtual location scouting, tech-vis, sequence blocking, location capture and world building, and more. You may be asked to work with the director, DP, VFX Supervisor, and Virtual Production Supervisor to make adjustments in Unreal for creative planning, prototyping, and storytelling.
When you have your developer hat on, you will be creating VP tools, real-world interfaces from photography equipment to the digital realm, workflows, and integration of existing workflows into the ASVP cinematic world. Much of this will require blueprinting. Knowing python and C++ is not required but can part of your training if you so desire. We want to make the filmmaking process as accessible and as powerful as possible so that Amazon Originals Movies and Episodic filmmakers love working here.
ASVP is helping filmmakers bring their projects to life in a safe, innovative, and inspired art facility. You must be a builder at heart and a collaborator in spirit. This position will work closely with key creatives, production, and the talented technology crew of Amazon/AWS to constantly inspire the filmmaking process. We obsess over the filmmaker and the filmmaking process.
