This is a production-focused role for someone with a keen eye for detail, lighting, composition, and photorealism. You’ll work collaboratively with our Australian team to deliver premium CGI content for architects, developers, and builders across Australia.
Tools & Software
Essential
- 3ds Max (primary modelling and rendering tool)
- V-Ray or Corona Renderer (for photo-real visualisation)
- Photoshop (for post-production and compositing)
Preferred
- SketchUp (for base modelling and import workflows)
- Substance Painter or Quixel Mixer (for texture creation)
- After Effects or DaVinci Resolve (for basic post processing)
- Experience with photo-montage composition and camera matching
- Shared network drives / NAS systems for team production
- Bonus: Experience with D5 Render or Unreal Engine for real-time presentation
What You’ll Be Doing
- Architectural Visualisation & Rendering
- Produce photo-realistic renders for residential and commercial projects — including interior design shots, exterior facades, and development site renders.
- Create 3D floor plans, bird’s-eye renders, and street view visuals that communicate design intent clearly and beautifully.
- Develop photo-montage renders for DA submissions, integrating CGI with real photography.
- Maintain a consistent level of lighting, colour grading, and realism across all outputs.
3D Modelling & Scene Setup
- Build clean, efficient 3D models of architectural spaces, landscapes, and furnishings with accurate scale and detail.
- Optimise geometry, materials, and scene hierarchy for smooth rendering performance.
- Follow naming conventions and organised scene structures for team collaboration.
Texturing & Lighting
- Create and apply realistic materials and PBR textures for both interior and exterior assets.
- Develop lighting setups that enhance architectural form, mood, and photographic composition.
- Refine look development with the Head of 3D Design to meet project style and quality benchmarks.
Team Workflow & Production
- Work closely with project managers and other 3D artists to meet deadlines and maintain high quality standards.
- Participate in internal reviews and adjust renders based on feedback and client revisions.
- Contribute to ongoing improvement of studio workflow documents and rendering standards.
Growth & Creative Development
