Notes:

You do not need to match every single point above. If you clearly understand the core of the role and have strong relevant experience, we still want to hear from you. Be open about what you cover and what you do not.

For example, you may be a Technical Animator who does not build rigs but is strong in implementation, retargeting and Unreal workflows. That is still relevant.

6. Your Materials and How We Use Them

In this particular case we introduce artists to studios. That means your reel and CV may be shown to a prospective client. Before that happens, we need a few things straight — it takes thirty seconds and it protects you as much as us. Clients first see you under a code, not your name. Do you have a reel without your name, logo or contact details on the title card?
