We are looking for a DMP Artist to join our London team to work across Advertising, Episodic & Immersive projects.
We're looking for artists with availability from 22nd October until 4th November 2024. Applicants must be in the UK and have the right to work here.
Digital Matte Painters are responsible for painting photo real environments, elements and textures for matching into live action plates or to stand on their own as DMP plates. Digital matte paintings may also be used in a 3D environment and may be mapped onto 3D objects.

Responsibilities:
- Able to create photo-realistic digital matte paintings

- Seek out and build own photographic reference material
- Stay on schedule and meet set deadlines while maintaining the highest standards
- Communicate regularly with Production and Leads regarding schedules and deadlines
