2 days ago

Bengaluru, Karnataka, India SatMern Astro Full time ₹ 9,00,000 - ₹ 12,00,000 per year

Type: Full time - On site - In Bangalore

About Us:

We are a creative startup producing short-format cinematic animated movies based on themes of astrology and stock market. Our focus is on delivering high-quality, visually striking content that blends storytelling with unique concepts. We are a small, disciplined team that values creativity, consistency, and aim for a healthy work-life balance.

About the Role:

We are building worlds - not just backgrounds.

As a 2D Concept & Environment Artist, your work will directly influence the visual storytelling of our cinematic universe. From ancient temples to futuristic cities, from quiet rooms to epic galaxies- every frame you paint becomes a part of a larger emotional journey. You will translate rough sketches from storyboard artists into breathtaking, atmospheric environments filled with depth, light, and feeling.

Responsibilities:

  • Transform rough storyboard sketches into stunning, production-ready environments.
  • Design and visualize locations, vehicles, props, and architecture that support the emotional tone of each scene.
  • Craft lighting moods, time-of-day transitions, and color scripts that elevate storytelling.
  • Work closely with Storyboarders, Director and Animators to ensure consistency and flow between shots.
  • Build believable worlds that feel alive - from the dust on the ground to the glow in the sky.
  • Create multiple design explorations when needed, balancing creativity with deadlines.
  • Maintain organized files, clean layer structures, and clear naming conventions for smooth production.
  • Constantly observe the world — light, texture, perspective — and bring that knowledge back into your art.

Requirements:

  • Strong sketching and composition skills with attention to cinematic perspective.
  • Excellent lighting sense — you understand how mood shifts with color and shadow.
  • Ability to create depth, texture, and realism in 2D painted scenes.
  • Proficiency in Photoshop, Krita, or Procreate (or equivalent tools).
  • Deep understanding of color theory, visual hierarchy, and atmosphere.
  • Comfort working under feedback loops and iterating quickly.
  • A humble yet creative mindset — open to learning, improving, and collaborating.

Bonus Skills (Preferred but not mandatory):

  • Basic knowledge of After Effects or compositing for light or camera motion setups.
  • Prior experience in cinematic storytelling.
  • Understanding of texture maps, lighting references, and compositing.

What We Offer

  • A positive and professional work culture that values creativity and collaboration.
  • Fixed login and logout times every day to maintain healthy work-life balance.
  • Opportunity to work on unique, character-driven cinematic animated movies in astrology and stock market.
  • Grow with a young, ambitious team in a startup environment where your creativity shapes the final product.

A test will be provided to assess expressions, timing, and storytelling clarity.
