Concept Art is one of the most interesting and creative parts of our industry, requiring a broad skillset of 2D and 3D talents.

Concept Artists work closely with the director and the production designer, helping to determine the look and feel of a production.

Increasingly, concept artists work in-house at production houses to help visual effects studios sell their services, impressing clients with beautiful artwork and helping to land big VFX contracts.
