Cinematic Director, Fortnite Ecosystem – Cinematic Trailers
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 Fortnite cinematics team who can help craft high-impact trailers and short-form content that connects with the Fortnite audience.
We’re looking for a hands-on filmmaker who uses Unreal Engine as a creative tool and is excited to jump into Sequencer to explore, iterate, and build.
Tone matters as much as craft. Strong comedic instincts and a feel for playful, irreverent, character-driven storytelling - someone who understands timing, performance, and visual comedy while still delivering cinematic scale and polish.
This is a highly collaborative role working alongside our existing directors and discipline leads to brainstorm, rapidly pitch, and bring ideas to life. You’ll manage multiple trailers simultaneously while incorporating feedback from Marketing, Art Direction, Game Direction, and other partners without compromising the creative intent.
