[PAID FULL-TIME] Experienced Technical Artist (Melbourne, Australia)

Intaneous Australia - Collingwood, Melbourne
We are seeking a talented Unreal Engine technical artist who can work with our broadcast design team to implement amazing broadcast graphics using the engine in real time.

The Company
Intaneous is the most exciting development in televised sports since the development of colour. It adds an unimagined dimension to whatever game you’re watching – for tennis you know instantaneously if a shot – no matter how close to the line – is in or out, creating a visual drama more intense than being courtside and ending viewers’ guesswork.

Intaneous is the first digital asset to create a visual bridge between traditional sports and e-gaming. This instantly makes traditional sports far more appealing and appetising to millions upon millions of younger viewers who currently have turned their back on them.

Using ground breaking digital technology, Intaneous takes existing sports data, and translates it into graphics which bring the game to life in a way never before captured.

Intaneous augments data for the live broadcast of sports and will be featured in national and international sporting competitions globally including upcoming world championships and the 2024 Summer Olympic Games

Intaneous’ founders include screen industry veteran, Greg Basser and legendary sports producer David Hill, who has transformed every sport and network he has touched over 50 years.

David’s ability to re-imagine the approach and coverage of a sport, combined with the technology to show the viewer so much more of what has been hidden in the past, is revolutionary for the sports that adopt Intaneous

Based in Melbourne, Australia, Intaneous also has offices in Los Angeles, New York and London and operations globally.
