Web3D Aesthetics & Interaction Intern
This isn’t a traditional 3D modeling or film and television animation role. You’ll explore how to collaborate with models and formalize Web3D and interactive motion experiences through research into AI-generated 3D content, creative website evaluation, and agentic design. The goal is to turn intuitive judgments about motion into objective standards models can learn from and be evaluated against.
What you’ll do
- 01Define what makes an animation experience effective: Contribute to research on AI-generated 3D content, creative website evaluation, and agentic design, translating intuitive judgments about motion into objective standards models can learn from and be evaluated against.
- 02Turn judgments about animation into executable rules and explore AI’s capabilities and limits: Build creative websites or animations with Three.js, WebGL, GSAP, GLSL, Rive, and other technologies. Explore implementations of 3D scenes, Shader effects, particles, and scroll and mouse interactions, and codify your findings as Motion Grammar, implementation specifications, and performance constraints. Use Coding agent tools to generate, debug, and iterate on complex websites, assessing different models’ capabilities and limits in visuals, interaction, animation, and performance.
- 03Contribute to AI-Native Creative Web design: Work with AI, product, and design teams to build evaluation tasks, workflows, and product prototypes, and contribute to the design of our official website and brand animations.
What we look for
- 01A strong eye for space, composition, motion rhythm, and interaction feedback, with the ability to explain why animation works rather than focusing only on visual spectacle.
- 02Familiarity with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or front-end fundamentals; an understanding of scenes, geometry, textures, and the render loop; and project experience with Three.js, WebGL, or Creative Coding.
- 03Familiarity with GSAP, ScrollTrigger, Framer Motion, or other Web animation tools, with the ability to build interactions driven by scrolling, mouse input, or state changes.
- 04Proficiency with at least one Coding agent and the ability to read code, diagnose issues, and correct AI-generated output.
- 05Basic awareness of performance and responsive design, including asset loading, DPR, Draw Call counts, mobile adaptation, and animation fallbacks.
- 06Open to all majors; backgrounds or project experience in front-end development, digital media, interaction design, Creative Coding, computer graphics, and related fields are welcome.
- 07Available for at least 4 days per week, either at our Shanghai office or remotely.
Nice to have
- Experience creating Awwwards-style websites or complex interactive pages, or the ability to recreate Awwwards-style websites with high fidelity.
- Familiarity with GLSL, React Three Fiber, Drei, Post-processing, or WebGPU.
- Experience using Blender, Cinema 4D, Spline, Rive, or similar design tools.
- Practical experience with Shader effects, particles, generative art, audiovisual interaction, or WebXR.
- Experience with model evaluation, rubrics, benchmarks, or AI projects.
- Creative Coding experience with p5.js or Canvas 2D.
