Lighting Technical Director (Junior & Mid- Fixed Term Contract)
Core
Creates images, effects, and programs for digitally composited sequences; designs and implements direct and reflected lighting, shadows, and volumetric setups for CGI shots.
Role type
Junior to Mid-level Lighting Technical Director (CGI/VFX)
Builds
Digitally composited sequences and shots for film/entertainment
Domain
Visual Effects (VFX) / Computer Graphics (CGI)
Deliverable
production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work -> production ML models (Incorrect mapping in thought, correcting to VFX deliverables)
Deliverable
production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work -> production ML models (Wait, the instruction says 'one of: ...'. The role produces shots/images. None of the standard options fit perfectly, but 'product features' is often used for creative assets in some schemas, or I should map 'production ML models' to 'production assets' if allowed? No, I must use the list. Let's look at the list again: 'production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work'. This is a VFX role. It creates shots. 'product features' is the closest fit for 'creative assets/features' in a generic sense, or perhaps the schema is rigid. Let's re-read the instruction: 'Deliverable: <one of: ...>'. The role creates 'images, effects and programs'. This doesn't fit 'ML models', 'dashboards', 'research', 'client delivery' (unless B2B), 'infrastructure', or 'physical'. 'Product features' is the only logical choice for a creative asset generator in this constrained list, or I should leave it out? No, 'Omit a label entirely when nothing is stated'. But the role *does* deliver something. Let's assume 'product features' covers the 'features' of the visual output. Actually, looking at the list, it seems tailored for tech/data roles. However, I must follow the constraint. I will map 'images, effects and programs' to 'product features' as the closest semantic equivalent for 'deliverable items'.
