The new AUT Virtual Production Lab is looking for an experienced Virtual Production Technician to join our team supporting students and staff across the schools of the Faculty of Design and Creative Technologies, and the wider university. The Virtual Production lab is located at the AUT City Campus in Auckland City. The role is a full-time permanent position.

This is a varied role with one key focus being operational support of undergraduate and postgraduate students throughout the Design and Creative Technologies faculty. We are looking for a creative confident person with an expert working knowledge of virtual production, including Unreal Engine and 3D modeling software, cinematography, and lighting, who is able to support and encourage our students to learn and develop good virtual production skills by demonstrating industry-standard practice.

We are looking for someone who can oversee and continue to develop real-time animation and virtual production practice in the studio, by assisting with the improvement and integration of tools, techniques, processes, and plug-ins to solve virtual production challenges and optimising the pipelines for students, staff, and industry clients.

The Virtual Production Lab is a highly complex technical area and the technician requires specialised technical skills to be able to perform in the role competently; including knowledge of:

- Unreal Engine, particularly the aspects that relate to virtual production
- 3D Animation software such as Maya and Blender
- Experience with Network architecture and protocols
- Excellent familiarity with current industry animation standards + practice
- An understanding of virtual stage and lighting practices
- Experience with virtual staging software is desirable
- Cinematography and lighting

It is expected that technical staff will show initiative and be prepared to work with staff and students to update skills and technical competency across all areas of digital media production, particularly as it relates to 3D content creation and virtual production practice. The technician will also be willing to participate in discussions surrounding future hardware and technical needs.

You must have excellent interpersonal skills, be able to work well in a team and be able to multi-task and balance different capture requirements during a busy week. You must be able to communicate in a clear and friendly manner with academic staff, students, clients, and team colleagues at all times.

You will be intelligent, proactive, energetic, organised, and pragmatic; able to demonstrate a mature outlook and sound judgment in responding to staff, students, and industry clients in our facility. In addition, you will have excellent command of written and spoken English and demonstrated abilities

AUT is a contemporary university delivering a unique student experience, through an active, stimulating, and transforming education.

So, if you have a professional yet flexible approach, remain calm under pressure, are organised and proactive with high levels of initiative, and have excellent 3D animation/production skills then we want to hear from you
