In the Cinematics Team, we are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in realtime. We are in the early stages of this growth in realtime quality work and we are growing quickly and implementing various techniques and ideas to improve what can be done in Unreal Engine. Our team is one of the few at the forefront of delivering innovation, through cinematic quality visuals.
Epic Games is searching for a collaborative Cinematic Director to join our close-knit team. We have been shaping Fortnite's cinematic narrative for nearly a decade, and we are looking for someone to join our small team of directors to craft high-impact projects. This is not a standalone "department head" role. We work as a tight creative unit, and the successful candidate will value shared authorship over solo control. If you love the process of brainstorming, quickly pitching story ideas, and collaboratively working with leads across every department to realize a vision, this is the place for you. You will work alongside two existing directors to manage a high volume of trailers—typically juggling 2 to 4 at any given time—while synthesizing notes from Marketing, Art Direction, and Game Direction stakeholders. We are looking for someone eager to contribute their own voice while respecting the team dynamic. This is a unique opportunity for an artist passionate about storytelling who wants to dive into a high-energy, collaborative pipeline rather than "running" a show on their own.
