Хто ми

CTRL/ART/D — креативна VFX-студія. Робимо CGI, FOOH, AI-кампейни, генеративне відео і моушн для брендів та агенцій. Control Freaks & Art Dealers: ми крафтимо візуал, а не рендеримо чужі ТЗ.

Ставка проста: у світі, де будь-хто за секунду й безкоштовно генерує будь-яку картинку, рідкісним і дорогим стає те, чого генерація сама не дає — смак, включеність і комітмент на фінальний кадр. Індустрія тоне в AI-слопі; ми граємо проти цього. AI для нас — новий інструмент крафту, і ми освоюємо його глибше за всіх: власні промпт-системи, тест кожної нової моделі в перший тиждень після релізу.

Працюємо з українськими брендами та агенціями, маємо кейси з Nike, Adidas, Fortnite.

 

Кого шукаємо

Артового AI-дженераліста.

Бракує людини, яка відповідає за те, як кадр виглядає і що він розповідає.

Половина роботи — продакшн: кампейни для клієнтів (продукт, спорт, одяг, б'юті). Половина — R&D: тести моделей, пошук прийомів, яких поки ніхто не показував, і перетворення їх на техніки студії.

Позиція в ядро команди, надовго.

 

Що будеш робити

• AI-візуали й AI-відео для клієнтських кампейнів: продукт, спорт, одяг, б'юті
• Вести шот від референсу до фінального кадру: ідея → промпт-система → генерація → селекція → фініш
• Тестувати нові моделі й пайплайни, документувати робочі прийоми
• Авторські арт-проєкти і спек-кейси студії
• Працювати в команді з креативним директором, арт-диром та креаторами
  
   

Ти наш, якщо

• У портфоліо 10+ AI-робіт, і у них видно почерк і систему
• Впевнено працюєш у генеративних тулах (Midjourney, Higgsfield, Kling, Veo, ComfyUI) і швидко освоюєш нові
• Маєш поставлене око: композиція, світло, фактура, кіно-мова
• Думаєш кадрами в історії: розумієш, навіщо цей шот існує в кампейні
• Ведеш свою частину сам і доводиш шот до фіналу
  
   

Буде плюсом

Фото/ретуш/CGI/motion-бекграунд · досвід із фешн- або спорт-брендами · власні арт-серії.

 

Що даємо

• Роботи, які ставлять першим слайдом у портфоліо
• R&D в оплачений робочий час
• Малу команду, де твій голос чутно в кожному проєкті
• Ремоут, гнучкий графік, оплата в USD
• $1 200–2 500/міс залежно від рівня — пишемо одразу, щоб не витрачати час одне одного
  
   

Як відгукнутись

CV не треба. Надішли:

• Портфоліо (Behance/сайт/IG)
• 3 роботи, якими пишаєшся, і по два речення: що було найскладнішим у кожній
• Один рядок про тул чи модель, з якою зараз працюєш найбільше і чому
