VFX Artist / 3D Animator (AI Video Annotation)

Responsibilities

• Review video footage of robotic arms performing tasks according to detailed annotation and grading guidelines.
• Identify and label motion, object interactions, spatial changes, task outcomes, errors, and other relevant events within video segments.
• Apply knowledge of animation, transforms, trajectories, timing, occlusion, and physical behavior to interpret robotic activity accurately.
• Use dedicated annotation tools to tag video content precisely and consistently.
• Flag visual anomalies, tracking challenges, or ambiguous moments and explain observations in concise written notes.
• Review annotations and provide constructive feedback as part of quality control.
• Complete assigned batches accurately and within established deadlines.
