3D Experience Designer - SAN FRANCISCO, CA
GPJ's San Francisco's office is looking for a 3D Experience Designer to support our Executive Creative Director in designing environments and exhibits for our well-known Fortune 500 clients.
Our Opportunity...
The 3D Experience Designer will generate compelling ideas and transform them into fully realized environments thereby giving physical form to a brand’s essence. This person will bring ideas and designs to life across a broad range of mediums, but primarily conferences, trade-shows and other live/physical environments.
You’ll work in a multi-disciplinary studio with 2D and digital designers, as well as creative strategists. This role requires someone with capabilities beyond exhibit design as you'll also design stage sets, pop-ups and brand activations. Your designs will be displayed in a variety of venue applications including B2B conferences, trade shows, and exhibits.
Our ideal candidate is confident yet humble, inspired yet inspiring, wildly visionary while painstakingly meticulous. Other than that, we don’t ask for much.
Who you are and what you will need...
Experience Degree in Design, Architecture or other related discipline and 6-8 years of experience in an agency environment. Expertise in Adobe Creative Suite, 3D Studio Max (MentalRay and/or VRay renderers), and experience in Auto Cad. A broad range of rendering skills (from white model to realistic). Demonstrated ability to think conceptually and realistically. Ability to produce detailed drawings. Must be in tune with current trends (interactive technology, architecture, art, design). Knowledge of fabrication (and gravity).
Born Leader – With a knack for galvanizing the team around a common goal, you have a natural ability to bring out the best in everyone around you! You are as brilliant working alone (self-motivated) as you are as leading a team (the motivator).
Storyteller – You work demonstrates excellent creative and artistic presentation. You have an ability to articulate concepts clearly and compellingly. Style matters just as much as substance, and you have an intuitive sense about what is important to deliver and how to deliver it.
Quick Study – You are fast on your feet, and even faster with your mind! You possess excellent time management skills and have a sense of urgency. Proven ability to work on multiple projects at once.
Excellent Communication - You understand how to communicate well with peers, managers and clients.
Flexible - You are able to change directions quickly without significant impact to performance. You effortlessly juggle multiple projects while delivering information in a timely manner and adhere to established timelines.
Innovative - You drive, develop and support new and improved methods, products, procedures or technologies. You are constantly challenging yourself to come up with authentic and innovative ideas to transform the client’s brand.
