CGI Producer

Overview

Aquent Studios is expanding its managed service capacity to support the Google Platforms & Devices Visual Design/CAR (Core Asset Renders) team. In this high-impact partnership, we don’t just execute — we innovate. Our goal is to deliver best-in-class global product representations that meet Google’s “Simple, Confident, and Delightful” design ethos while reinforcing Pixel as a premium global brand.

Impact & Responsibilities (The How)

• Product Render Leadership: Lead the end-to-end production of high-fidelity 3D product renders, ensuring the “highest point of expression” for Pixel’s marketing campaigns.
• Hands-on Project Management: Drive the end-to-end process of accounting for renders—from collecting meticulous requirements from marketing stakeholders to managing the back-and-forth of asset iterations.
• Stakeholder Navigation: Act as the primary interface within a massive and complex organization, translating marketing needs into technical CGI/VFX briefs for internal and external teams.
• Quality Gatekeeper: Maintain an obsessive “eye” for detail and quality, ensuring every render meets Google’s premium hardware standards and Digital Design aesthetic.
• Pipeline Coordination: Less focused on on-set production and more focused on the Product VFX lifecycle, managing the flow of renders across digital, social, video, and OOH channels.
• Collaborative Catalyst: Foster a high-performing environment by working closely with strategy, finance, and regional retail teams to prioritize and execute high-volume bi-annual launch cycles.
• Operational Excellence: Optimize production workflows to handle massive asset volume and seasonality, ensuring maximum efficiency without sacrificing creative resonance.

Aquent Studios will manage multiple production workstreams for bi-annual Pixel launches and seasonal moments, including:

• Core Asset Renders (CAR): Static and motion-based hardware representations for global marketing.
• Retail & Digital Assets: OOH, 1P/3P Digital Channels, and Print Assets.
• Video & Social: Retail Sizzles, End Cards, TV/OLV, and Social-first content.
• Specialized Deliverables: Family Bundles, “What’s In The Box,” 3D AR, 360° Motion, and Orthos.

Must-Have Expertise & Skills

• Hardware/Tech Fluency: Deep experience in Digital Product Design and CGI production, specifically for premium consumer electronics or high-end tech brands.
• Strategic Production: Proven ability to navigate a global technology ecosystem, managing complex stakeholder requirements and vendor relationships.
• The “Product Eye”: A background in VFX as it relates to Product Design—the ability to see beyond the “shot” and focus on the perfection of the “product.”
• Hands-on Execution: A proactive self-starter who is not afraid to roll up their sleeves to manage the day-to-day “accounting” of high-volume asset renders.
• Agency or Tech Experience: Previous experience at a top-tier agency or in-house at a major tech brand is highly preferred.

Software & Systems

• Google Workspace: Drive, Gmail, Sheets, Docs, Slides.
