Meridial Marketplace, by Invisible is seeking 3D modeling specialists with expertise in creating accurate, production-ready digital assets from 2D reference material. The role involves translating 2D images into 3D models and producing high-quality assets across various categories while iterating based on feedback.
Responsibilities:
- Translate 2D reference images into precise 3D models, ensuring accuracy in geometry, proportions, and topology
- Source supplementary references to resolve occlusions, blurry details, or incomplete imagery
- Produce high-quality models across distinct asset categories:
- Hard surface: vehicles, props, machinery
- Organic: humans (including realistic digital doubles), animals, plants, and natural forms
- Environment & architecture: buildings, landscapes, set pieces, and world assets
- Iterate on models based on feedback, aligning assets with project quality standards and artistic direction
Requirements:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in 3D Art, Animation, Game Design, Computer Graphics, or related field, or equivalent professional experience
- Demonstrated proficiency in industry-standard modeling tools (e.g., Maya, Blender, ZBrush, Houdini, 3ds Max) and familiarity with texturing/UV workflows (e.g., Substance Painter, Mari)
- A portfolio showcasing a range of hard surface, organic, and environmental assets, ideally for film, games, AR/VR, or other interactive media
- Strong understanding of anatomy, form, and material definition
- Ability to clearly communicate process and problem-solving steps (“show your work”)
- Comfortable in iterative pipelines, with a collaborative mindset and openness to feedback
