Asset Capture Specialist

Feral Interactive is looking for a proactive Asset Capture Specialist to help with the production of graphics and videos for our range of desktop, mobile and console titles, with a specific focus on capturing, composing, and editing still and video assets directly from the games. This is a part-time position, initially 20 hours per week with the scope to become full-time for the right person.

Feral specialises in successfully bringing AAA games to new platforms and audiences. Our graphic designers and video editors play a key part in helping to achieve that, and capturing footage directly from Feral’s games is vital to promoting them effectively.

This role is ideal for someone who is excited by the compositional challenge of generating stills and footage that showcase complex games to broad audiences, as well as the creative challenge of producing engaging marketing materials for different formats and devices while working to established briefs and style guides.

Liaising closely with our marketing and art teams, your principal role will be asset capture — be it video, screenshots, or audio — and video editing, to produce long- and short-form marketing materials including game trailers. You will be encouraged to generate ideas for new audio/visual content, capture assets accordingly, and create compelling materials. Check out our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/feralinteractive/ to see examples of what we produce.

You will almost always have multiple projects running simultaneously: time discipline and project management skills are vital, and you should be comfortable engaging in creative discussions with other members of the marketing team. While prior professional experience is not required, you will need demonstrable experience of working with a digital video editing suite, preferably Adobe Premiere Pro and the wider Adobe Creative Cloud set of apps. Where available, please include a link to your portfolio in your application.
