Senior Animator-Bioshock 2

Description

Senior Animator

If you made the most awesome flip-books when you were a kid and were undeterred by the unimaginative people who told you that you could never do that for a living, but you continued to refine them until they intersected with computers and you actually started to pay the rent, you might be just who we’re looking for. As an animator with 2K Marin, you would be responsible for animating characters using a combination of keyframe animation and motion capture editing. You will work with our Lead Animator to figure out how best to tackle thousands of animations and transitions for multiple in-game characters. Additionally, you will interpret storyboards and animate them for action-packed and emotionally engaging narrative cut-scenes. You will probably also make faces and do silly walks in front of a mirror.

Job Responsibilities:

• Create in-game physical animation
• Create performance animation for cut scenes
• Interpret storyboards and produce animatics
• Assist Lead Animator in directing motion-capture sessions
• Create keyframe animation
• Clean-up and edit motion capture data
• Mentor less experienced members of the animation team
• Organize complicated sets of animation data
• Rig characters for animation
• Collaborate with Concept Artist and Character Modelers
