About the Position:
AGBO is seeking a skilled Previz Artist (all levels) to join our VFX/Animation team on a temporary basis. This artist will play a key role in the early visualization of cinematic moments, sequences, and action—working closely with directors, producers, and department leads to bring ambitious concepts to life in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. This role is ideal for someone with a strong sense of cinematic language, storytelling, and technical proficiency in previz tools and workflows. 

This is a preferred hybrid position in Los Angeles, CA.

Key Responsibilities:  

  • Collaborate with directors, storyboard artists, and department heads to visualize sequences and scenes through 3D previz.
  • Translate scripts, storyboards, and rough concepts into dynamic and cinematic previz shots that define composition, pacing, and action.
  • Build previz assets including environments, props, and character rigs when needed.
  • Animate characters and cameras to establish tone, staging, and visual continuity across sequences.
  • Ensure previz supports technical planning, including VFX, stunt coordination, virtual production, and live-action integration.
  • Work efficiently within project timelines and adapt to evolving creative direction.
  • Collaborate across departments to ensure previz aligns with downstream production requirements.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications & Skills:

  • 3+ years of experience in previz, cinematic layout, or related roles in film, television, games, or high-end commercials.
  • Strong proficiency in Maya and some experience with Unreal Engine.
  • Solid understanding of cinematic language—framing, lens choices, pacing, blocking, and editing.
  • Experience with stitching mocap clips into master scenes as well as taking a shot from start to finish in terms of camera, layout and animation.
  • Ability to create previz assets or modify existing assets as needed.
  • Familiarity with real-time workflows and virtual production is a plus.
  • Ability to take direction and iterate quickly while maintaining quality and clarity.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Working knowledge of Nuke and After Effects is a plus.

Additional Information:

  • This is a temporary position with the possibility of extension based on project needs.
  • Preference will be given to those who can work in Los Angeles, CA.
  • Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for sponsorship.
  • Please submit a portfolio or demo reel for consideration.
