3D Creative Director

Job Description

Overview

We’re hiring a senior-level 3D Creative Director to fully own the visual direction of product launches—from first concept through final delivery.

This is not a task-based execution role. This is a high-ownership role where you’re trusted to take a product brief and run with it.

You’ll be told:
“We’re launching X product.”
Your response:
“On it.”

You define the look, direct the visuals, align stakeholders, and personally ensure the final output meets a high creative bar. Luxury, restraint, taste, and clarity matter here.

What You’ll Own

• End-to-end 3D creative direction for product launches
• Visual strategy across:
• Product listings
• Website pages
• Static graphics & infographics
• Motion and animation assets

Core Responsibilities

Creative Direction & Ownership

• Define the visual approach for each product launch (static + motion)
• Set the creative standard and ensure all assets feel cohesive, premium, and intentional
• Make strong, taste-driven decisions without excessive guidance

Static Renders

• Direct and/or produce high-end 3D static renders for:
• Product listings
• Infographics
• Website visuals
• Marketing assets
• Ensure lighting, materials, composition, and realism align with a luxury-level standard

Animation & Motion

• Direct and/or produce 3D animations for:
• Product storytelling
• Feature callouts
• Web and marketing use cases
• Keep motion purposeful, refined, and elevated—never flashy for its own sake

Approval → Execution

• Present clear creative concepts for approval
• Incorporate feedback efficiently without diluting the vision
• Deliver final assets with a high level of polish

Quality Control

• Own final output—nothing ships unless it meets the bar
• Maintain consistency across all static and animated assets

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience leading 3D visual direction for premium or luxury brands
• Exceptional visual taste and judgment (subjective, but non-negotiable)
• Strong understanding of:
• Lighting, materials, camera, and composition
• Realistic product rendering
• High-end animation principles
• Comfortable working autonomously with minimal hand-holding
• Able to balance creative ambition with business timelines
• Someone who finishes—not just ideates

Tools & Skillset (Flexible, Not Dogmatic)

• Expertise in modern 3D workflows (e.g., Cinema 4D, Blender, Octane, Redshift, Unreal, etc.)
• Strong post-production sensibility (After Effects, compositing, color, final polish)
• Clear communication when presenting concepts and creative rationale

How Success Is Measured

• Product launches feel elevated, intentional, and unmistakably premium
• Stakeholders trust your judgment and stop micromanaging visuals
• Assets ship clean, on time, and raise the brand’s creative ceiling

This Role Is Not For

• Someone who needs pixel-by-pixel direction
• Someone who only executes tickets without ownership
• Someone chasing trends instead of timeless quality
