The TrailerFarm is looking for a Pipeline Technical Artist to join us making cinematic game trailers, intro sequences and cut scenes for some amazing games industry clients.

We're a collective of creative, technical artists making hype-worthy, award-winning content for video games. We are the team behind the double Clio Award-winning "So Happy Together" Trailer for Borderlands 3, the first ever PS5 trailer for Godfall, the Official Launch trailer for Roblox's Adopt Me and many more. While trailers are massive to us, our Unreal and Unity cinematics expertise means that game developers also come to us for intro sequences, in-game cutscenes and all stages of cinematic visualisation. Our teams work on a number of exciting IPs every year and we have lots of awesome projects in the pipeline so are looking to expand our team.
