Overview

As a Senior Creative Producer within Level Infinite's internal creative studio (ICC), you are the conduit between our artists, our partner studios and the games they are making. You will take ownership of our most complex and high-profile productions — in-game cinematics, trailers, key art, renders and marketing content — driving them from brief through to delivery, on time and on budget.

The remit is three-fold: build strong, trusted relationships with our partner studios; enable the team to produce the best game content possible; and deliver it with the commercial discipline that a business-facing creative function demands. This is a senior role and you will operate with real autonomy — owning scope and cost decisions, deputising for the Head of Production, and setting the production standard the rest of the function works to.

Critically, you are technically fluent. You understand how in-game cinematics are actually made — from script and storyboard through mocap, previs and blockout to animation, lighting, FX and final delivery — and you understand 3D asset workflows well enough to scope them accurately, interrogate an estimate and speak credibly to both artists and technical directors. You are not a producer who hands a brief over the wall; you are one who knows what is underneath it.

Key Responsibilities

Own end-to-end production of ICC's most complex and high-profile projects across in-game cinematics, trailers, key art, renders and marketing content
Scope, cost and resource productions accurately, developing quotes and SOWs with full commercial and resourcing discipline
Build production plans, schedules, budgets and trackers, and set the standard for how they are maintained across the wider production team
Act as the senior production contact for partner studios, building trusted relationships that generate repeat and new business
Plan and manage technical cinematic pipelines — script refinement, storyboarding, mocap direction, previs and blockout, animation, lighting, FX and sound mix, through to final optimisation and delivery via Perforce
Scope and track 3D asset production — modelling, texturing, rigging, grooming, lighting and rendering — with a realistic understanding of effort and dependency
Anticipate risk independently — identify issues early, propose solutions and escalate clearly and in good time
Source, onboard and manage external specialist studios, contractors and freelancers, holding partners to ICC quality standards through direction rather than pure outsourcing
Assign and manage allocated resources across projects based on workload, capability and priority
Collaborate closely with the Head of Video, Head of Art, Head of CGI and technical art function to keep creative ambition and delivery reality aligned
Demonstrate creative problem-solving when working with shifting scopes, incomplete or buggy game assets and compressed timelines
Mentor and elevate junior producers and project managers, moving them from observing workflows to driving them
Deputise for the Head of Production as required, and communicate openly and directly across a distributed team spanning Singapore, London and China
Work with the rest of the team to constantly improve and grow the Studio

Requirements

Experience: +6 years producing in a creative environment, including significant time in Games, with a portfolio of shipped high-profile cinematic, trailer or marketing content
Technical Cinematics: Demonstrable experience producing in-game and in-engine cinematics — familiarity with Unreal Engine 5 and Sequencer, mocap production, previs and blockout, and engine build and Perforce delivery workflows
3D Workflow Knowledge: A working understanding of 3D modelling and asset pipelines (modelling, texturing, rigging, grooming, lighting and rendering) sufficient to scope, cost and challenge estimates credibly
Production Craft: Exceptional project management, with genuine rigour around planning, scheduling, tracking and documentation at scale
Commercial Acumen: Strong commercial judgement — able to build quotes and SOWs, and to protect margin and capacity in a commercially exposed function
Partner Relationships: Proven ability to build trust with clients, partner studios and external vendors, and to represent the studio credibly at a senior level
Independent Judgement: Operates autonomously — anticipates risk, makes decisions without close supervision, and escalates the right things at the right time
Communication: Excellent, direct and mature communicator — comfortable navigating a range of personality types and holding professional boundaries that protect both the team and the work
Leadership: Able to mentor and elevate more junior production staff, and to set a standard others follow
Problem Solving: Exceptional creative problem-solving skills, particularly in shifting production environments
Attributes: Mature, selfless and capable of giving and receiving feedback with professional grace
Industry Passion: A deep affinity for video games, film, and the creative industries
