About Us

The role

Most of our players will first meet Fanatics Casino in a vertical video they didn't plan to watch. Your job is to make them watch it and feel something.

You'll design and animate the motion creative behind our paid and organic social, turning static ideas into video that hooks in the first second, communicates with the sound on and off, and scales across dozens of versions while keeping its edge.

What You’ll Do

Design, animate and edit performance-focused video and motion for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Snap, CTV and display.
Create visually arresting hooks, pacing and payoffs that are built for platform viewing behavior.
Produce versions efficiently across formats (9:16, 4:5, 1:1, 16:9), durations, markets and test variables.
Bring the brand to life in motion: typography, transitions, game and product UI, and energy.
Build 2D and 3D assets and scenes for game launches, product and brand moments across campaigns.
Build motion templates, toolkits and After Effects rigs that create consistency speed up the process.
Work closely with creative and design leadership and Paid Media, and use performance data to decide what to try next, whilst also bringing your own innovation to the table
Experiment with AI video, image and audio tools to prototype faster and expand what's possible within the budget.

What You Bring

5+ years in motion design and video editing, with significant experience making social and performance creative.
Expert skills in After Effects and Premiere Pro or similar editing software, plus strong design fundamentals in Illustrator, Photoshop and Figma.
A reel that shows scroll-stopping social work and polished brand motion.
2D and 3D capability in Cinema 4D, Blender or similar software, with a sharp knowledge of render capabilities.
An understanding of how performance video is measured (thumbstop rate, hold rate, completion, CTR) and how motion choices affect those numbers.
Speed and polish together, and the ability to manage multiple projects on tight timelines.
Comfort using AI video tools as part of a professional workflow.

Bonus points

Sound design and music editing.
Experience animating app or game UI.

Your first 90 days

You’ll ship live performance video within your first month, develop and expand our motion toolkit, and help design the motion side of our creative testing roadmap.
