VFX Artist for Sci-Fi Noir Short

A neo-noir sci-fi short film, blending gritty urban detective stories with futuristic dystopia, seeks a talented VFX Artist to bring its unique vision to life. This independent production offers a compelling narrative about a detective tracking a rogue AI through a rain-soaked, neon-lit Sydney. We're looking for someone with an eye for detail and a passion for creating atmospheric digital environments and subtle futuristic elements. Key responsibilities include conceptualizing and executing visual effects shots, compositing, matte painting, and potentially 3D modeling for environmental enhancements or specific character effects. You'll work closely with the director to ensure the VFX align with the film's distinct aesthetic. Experience level is open, whether you're a seasoned professional or an emerging artist building your portfolio, we encourage you to apply. Please provide a link to your reel showcasing your best work. We don't require specific gear, but expect you to have your own software and workstation. This is a partnership opportunity, offering a revenue share from festival winnings and future distribution. The primary post-production period is estimated to be about 6-8 weeks, starting in early September 2026. This is a chance to contribute significantly to a compelling project and gain valuable experience.
