Imageloom Visual EffectsChennai, Tamil Nadu, India1 day ago
Job descriptionStrong human character modeling portfolio (anatomy, facial topology, edge flow). In-engine Unreal captures / renders in your reel (wireframe, UVs, bakes, final). Solid sculpt, texture pipeline and PBR fundamentals. Comfortable troubleshooting imports / materials / LODs / Nanite directly in UE. Clear naming / versioning and source organization; familiarity with Git / LFS or Perforce. Rigging / skin-weighting (especially faces) and Control Rig basics. MetaHumans : custom heads / bodies, Animator, or rig-compatibility workflows. Hair via Unreal Groom or high-quality hair cards; cloth / physics assets. ARKit / FACS-style corrective shapes; basic facial performance prep. UE-ready character folder containing : skeletal mesh, UVs, LODs / Nanite settings, packed maps (e.g., ORM / RMA), material instances, optional groom / cards, and a simple UE showcase level (idle / turntable). Exchange formats as needed (FBX / GLTF / USDC) plus a short README (tris / map budgets, notes). Portfolio / reel link with photoreal humans shown in Unreal (required). 2–3 breakdowns, including face topology close-ups. A brief note on your workflow and typical turnaround per character. (Optional) Links to rigs, MetaHuman integrations, or Control Rig demos.
Type : Freelance / Remote
Duration : Project-based
Start : Immediate
Create photoreal human characters for real-time use in Unreal Engine, owning the full pipeline from sculpting and modeling through retopology, UVs, and PBR texturing, and setting assets up in engine. Rigging is a plus; MetaHumans experience is a strong bonus.
Responsibilities
- Build photoreal human characters (head-to-toe) with deformation-friendly topology, especially face / eyes / mouth / hands.
- Create PBR textures / shaders (skin, eyes, teeth, hair / fuzz, wardrobe) and set up material instances in UE (SSS, micro-detail, eye shading).
- Import and validate in Unreal (skeletal mesh, scale / orientation, sockets, LODs / Nanite strategy, collisions as needed).
- Prepare turntables and Sequencer previews; collaborate on notes and iterate efficiently.
- Optimize for real-time cinematics (shader complexity, texture budgets, streaming / VT).
