CG Storyboard Artist

Atomic Cartoons is hiring a CG Storyboard Artist to join their Vancouver studio on an ongoing CG animated series. This role sits within the story department, where the artist translates scripts and director vision into boarded sequences, planning shots and constructing panels that drive the animation pipeline forward. It’s a strong fit for someone with CG production credits who works well within a supervised creative structure while managing their own board sections independently.

About the Role

The CG Storyboard Artist works directly under the Director and Storyboard Supervisor, contributing to an active episodic animation production at one of Vancouver’s most recognized animation studios. Day to day, this means taking script pages through to fully realized storyboard sequences in Storyboard Pro, maintaining visual consistency with established character and staging style across episodes. Atomic Cartoons has an extensive slate that includes both original IP and major licensed properties, so the boards need to hold up to close scrutiny from brand and creative partners alike.

Key Responsibilities

• Board sequences in Storyboard Pro under the guidance of the Director and Storyboard Supervisor, planning shots for clarity, pacing, and visual storytelling.
• Maintain style, character consistency, and compositional quality across panels to support a cohesive CG animation pipeline.
• Interpret and apply revision notes from the director and supervisor across multiple rounds of feedback without losing continuity.
• Deliver completed board sections on the schedule set by production management, flagging conflicts early rather than at deadline.
• Adapt staging and camera language to suit CG animation conventions, including three-dimensional spatial logic that differs from traditional board work.

What You Bring

• A minimum of 2 years working as a CG Storyboard Artist on animated productions, with credits you can show.
• Hands-on production experience with Storyboard Pro, not just familiarity.
• Strong drawing fundamentals and a clear sense of staging, composition, and screen direction.
• Experience on an animated preschool series or action show is a genuine asset here.
• Blender experience is an asset for understanding CG spatial relationships.
• Current legal eligibility to work in Canada, with BC residency as of December 31, 2025, supported by documentation.

Why This Role

Atomic Cartoons is a B Corp certified, award-winning animation studio with a production history that includes The Last Kids on Earth, CoComelon, and LEGO properties, which means the work carries real weight and visibility in the industry. The studio is known for an artist-driven culture that supports career growth from within, and this is an ongoing engagement rather than a short-term contract. BC-based artists are preferred, which reflects a genuine commitment to the local animation community in Vancouver.
