The 3D department is a team of highly creative and technical artists working in a collaborative environment. We value the importance of in-person collaboration as a cornerstone of building positive culture, fostering growth, and driving success for individuals, the department, and BUCK as a whole.

• Curious and forward-thinking, with a genuine interest in exploring new tools, technologies, and ways of working within 3D

Experience

We welcome recent graduates, self-taught artists and anyone in between. The ideal candidate will have some experience, but more importantly, we’re looking for someone who is curious and eager to learn. You should display a keen interest in exploring and adapting to new tools and techniques to stay current with industry trends and evolving project requirements.
