If you're passionate about creating compelling 3D thumbnails that serve as visual hooks and have advanced Blender skills, this is the right role for you.

The role

  • Meeting deadlines consistently while maintaining high quality standards
  • Analyzing thumbnail performance metrics and adapting designs accordingly

The ideal candidate will:

  • Have strong proficiency in Blender (essential) - must demonstrate advanced skills with this specific software
  • Have additional experience with other 3D programs (Cinema 4D, 3ds Max, Maya) as a plus
  • Demonstrate expertise in 3D modeling, texturing, lighting, and rendering specifically for still images
  • Present a portfolio demonstrating architectural, isometric, or miniature-style 3D modeling skills
  • Show strong understanding of composition, color theory, and typography for maximum visual impact
  • Have experience creating thumbnails specifically for YouTube or similar platforms
  • Understand YouTube algorithms and how thumbnails influence metrics (CTR, view time, etc.)
  • Possess excellent communication skills and be receptive to feedback
  • Be able to distill complex concepts into simple, striking visuals
