About the Role
TINK TEAM LTD is a UK-based independent game studio developing three PC games for Steam. We are looking for a Senior 3D Animation & VFX Artist to create and integrate game-ready character animation, rigging, and real-time visual effects.
This is a revenue-share position rather than a monthly salaried role. You will receive an agreed percentage of the game’s revenue after commercial release.
Key Responsibilities
- Create game-ready rigs for characters, creatures, enemies, and bosses.
- Handle skinning, weight painting, and deformation quality.
- Produce gameplay animations, including movement, attacks, skills, reactions, and deaths.
- Prepare and integrate animation assets into Unity.
- Create real-time VFX for attacks, impacts, projectiles, abilities, telegraphs, and environmental effects.
- Coordinate animation timing and VFX to improve gameplay clarity and impact.
- Establish reusable animation, rigging, export, and naming workflows.
- Collaborate with artists, developers, designers, and producers.
- Review work and support less experienced artists when needed.
