As a Senior Rigger at Frontier you will be working under the guidance of your lead and will become part of the character asset pipeline for our games by creating world class animation rigs for our animation teams.
Our catalogue of games covers a wide range of requirements to fit different animation targets and art styles, and our animation rigs need to reflect that. With a proud history of character animation, we continue to push and develop our animation rigs, allowing our animation team to get the best out of our incredible characters.
Great rigs allow for great animation and will play a huge part in the future success of the animation team. With games such as Planet Zoo leading the way, your passion for rigging will allow us to reach the levels of quality we strive for in our games.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a studio with a proven track record of delivering successful AAA titles and to play an important role in our continued success.
