• Working with some of the world’s biggest brands.
• Getting paid (yep, competitive salary included).

What You Bring to the Party

• A portfolio packed with sharp, original creative ideas.
• A strong eye for design and confident art direction skills.
• Experience writing scripts and treatments, animation and/or live-action.
• An appreciation (okay, obsession) for CGI and animation.
• Solid writing chops, you can string a sentence together with style and accuracy (and then pitch it).
• Interest in new tech and the world of consumer electronics.
• You can juggle multiple projects without dropping the ball.
• A positive attitude, hunger to learn, and zero ego.
