Vetted Blender Professionals

“Diploma-trained in Cinematography and Sound Design (European Film College, Denmark) with hands-on, end-to-end videography experience. Recently shot and post-produced a 30-minute promotional documentary about building a professional race track in Tennessee for Rogers Group Inc., operating as the primary camera/drone operator and editor/sound mixer on a small crew. Comfortable with travel, non-traditional hours, and immediate start near Greater Boston.”

“3D artist from a live marketing agency in São Paulo who shipped VR/AR/MR brand experiences, including a Meta Quest tennis experience for FILA and a mixed reality perfume feature demo for Natura. Creates user-comfort-focused VR feedback VFX and can prototype interaction checks in-engine using ChatGPT-assisted coding before handing off to engineering.”

“Real-time VFX artist with hands-on Unity experience (VFX Graph, Particle System, Shader Graph) who builds effects end-to-end—from low-poly Blender meshes to staged, timed VFX in-engine. Has demonstrated optimization work by rebuilding a particle-heavy lightning hand effect into a mesh+shader solution to reduce overdraw and GPU load while maintaining visual quality.”

“VFX artist/technical VFX specialist shipping effects in Unity with a strong mobile/VR-constraint mindset, even on a Steam release (Fight'n Fall). Demonstrates hands-on shader and rendering optimization—reducing overdraw, packing textures, and moving work from pixel to vertex stage—to maintain a locked 60+ FPS in multiplayer while preserving gameplay readability.”

“Unity developer who has published multiple games (e.g., "Hole people", "beads out") and reports building nearly everything inside the games himself, including gameplay, remote config, and A/B testing. Also built "Age of battles PvP" with backend server, economy, multiplayer, analytics, and blockchain/Web3/NFT functionality, including custom verification logic to mitigate third-party transaction delays. Currently earning about $3,000/month due to covering both backend and Unity/multiplayer responsibilities.”

“VFX artist with shipped VR-exclusive title experience at TwinnyVR, focused on real-time, performance-critical environmental effects in Unity. Built and optimized a wind-blown leaf system for VR, addressing aliasing/shimmering through in-headset iteration and improving FPS via distance-based particle culling; also leverages AI tools to troubleshoot shader artifacts.”

“Real-time VFX artist with Unity experience who emphasizes gameplay readability and performance. Built a multi-component fireball effect for the top-down game Petopia (indicator/main/sub FX) and iterated based on both dev and player feedback, including trail adjustments for perceived speed and stronger impact feedback. Uses platform-driven tooling (Particle System vs VFX Graph) and prefers Amplify/ShaderLab/HLSL for performance-critical shader work.”

“Internal game QA tester at Torn Banner Studios (Chivalry 2), focused on stress testing developer builds and uncovering issues like bad spawns/out-of-bounds and unintended audio triggers. Reports bugs primarily through Jira (and sometimes Google Sheets), often attaching edited video evidence and coordinating with developers via Discord; expects compensation comparable to $30/hour.”

“Gameplay VFX artist at Piloto Studio with hands-on experience shipping mobile game effects, including a bullet-hell project where they owned most gameplay VFX (projectiles, impacts, explosions) and optimized heavily for clarity and performance. Built real-time effects like a black hole VFX using geometry/material illusions plus scripting to keep particle counts low and frame rate stable on mobile.”

“Early-career game/3D creative with hands-on experience designing narrative elements, puzzle/attack mechanics, and progression via ability unlocks, plus delivering a stylized 3D mascot character in Blender under tight visual constraints (camera-head with lens-as-mouth). Currently self-studying to improve game development skills; has some Unity exposure but no UE5 prototyping experience yet.”
