VFX Generalist (Vancouver only)

Dream Theory is an AI-assisted visual effects studio helping production companies, agencies, and brands integrate emerging technology into professional post-production workflows. From broadcast series to national commercial campaigns, we combine traditional VFX techniques with AI-assisted workflows to deliver high-quality work efficiently without compromising creative standards.

We're looking for a VFX Generalist to join our growing Vancouver team. This role is ideal for someone with strong VFX fundamentals who is excited about how generative AI is reshaping post-production. While experience with AI tools is a plus, we're equally interested in artists with solid technical skills who are eager to learn and adapt.

What you'll be doing

• Preparing footage for AI-assisted workflows through roto, masking, tracking, paint, and clean-up
• Creating seamless composites that integrate AI-generated elements into live-action plates
• Working closely with producers and supervisors to develop practical shot approaches
• Troubleshooting challenging shots and finding efficient solutions within hybrid VFX pipelines
• Performing quality control to ensure final shots meet broadcast and commercial standards
• Collaborating with artists across traditional VFX and AI-assisted workflows
• Helping refine internal tools, workflows, and best practices as the studio continues to evolve

What we're looking for

• 2–5 years of experience in visual effects, motion graphics, or post-production
• Strong understanding of compositing principles and shot finishing
• Experience with roto, tracking, keying, paint, and clean-up work
• Proficiency with Adobe After Effects
• A strong eye for detail, continuity, realism, and image quality
• Comfortable working across multiple projects and adapting to evolving workflows
• A collaborative attitude and clear communication skills
• Curiosity about AI-assisted creative workflows and emerging production technology

Nice to have

• Experience with generative platforms such as Higgsfield, Google Flow, Runway, or similar tools
• Experience with Blender, 3D animation, or motion graphics
• Familiarity with Mocha, SynthEyes, PFTrack, or other tracking software
• Experience working on commercial, broadcast, or feature productions

We're a boutique studio, so versatility is one of our biggest strengths. Our artists wear multiple hats, collaborate closely, and have the opportunity to help shape the future of AI-assisted visual effects. If you're excited about combining traditional VFX craftsmanship with emerging technology, we'd love to hear from you.

Dream Theory operates as a hybrid remote/in-studio workplace.

Priority will be given to applicants located in Vancouver, although exceptional remote candidates within Canada may also be considered.
