Orion Multimedia, the nation’s largest independent producer of outdoor adventure television programming and a leader across the reality genre, seeks an experienced motion graphics artist and 3D animator to join our award winning team in a full time position. Orion is known in the industry for top notch graphics and animation on par or exceeding anything seen on Discovery or ESPN, and we are constantly looking to set the bar even higher. Whether it’s creating a graphics package for a new series, animating the flight path and ballistics of a particular bullet, comparing the muscle structure of two predators, creating 3D maps that show the topography of an expedition, or animating the way a shark hones in on its prey, our graphics artists are called on to push the envelope with new perspectives, techniques and technologies to educate, enlighten, entertain and enrapture the audience. With over 30 television series airing on 5 networks (ESPN, Spike, DIY, Versus, Outdoor Channel) and growing, Orion is seeking an artist who can work on a wide variety of graphics across different genres and design platforms, and who can deliver on time and on budget while bringing fresh ideas and creativity to the table. Multitasking and a good attitude under pressure are musts. Qualified candidates will be well versed in both 2D motion graphics/compositing (using AfterEffects, FinalCut Pro, etc) and 3D design and animation (Maya preferred), and should be able to integrate audio (music, narration, sound fx, etc) into their animations to create a finished piece. Should be experienced in designing for HD. Knowledge of outdoor adventure sports is a plus. This is a full time position in our Denver, Colorado headquarters and includes full benefits and salary. Only candidates with experience designing high quality motion graphics for television will be considered.
