What You'll Do
Epic is looking for experienced FX Artists to join our dynamic team, contributing across various aspects of FX for our collaboration with Disney. A successful candidate should have a strong sense of dramatic effects and an understanding of how to recreate them in a real-time particle editor. They will be, first and foremost, a team player while also having the ability to be self-motivated and work autonomously.

In this role, you will
• Bring a wide variety of FX to life in a dynamic world
• Own the entire process, from concept to reality in a variety of art styles that don't rely on spritesheet animation
• Show the team what an FX Artist armed with Houdini can add to the mix
• Create lasting memories and experiences that inspire all generations of players
What we're looking for
• Must have a strong reel/portfolio showing your best real-time FX work
• Well versed in carrying FX tasks from conception to completion, owning the entire process
• Experienced using Houdini to create art assets and tools for real-time FX needs in Unreal
• Comfortable working with Blueprint
• You enjoy sharing and teaching those around you what's possible with Houdini in your toolkit
• You understand the shifting scale of quality and how to achieve it when working on a multiplatform project
