About Prolific

Prolific is not just another player in the AI space – we are building the biggest pool of quality human data in the world.

Over 35,000 AI developers, researchers, and organizations use Prolific to gather data from paid study participants with a wide variety of experiences, knowledge, and skills.

The Opportunity

We are inviting 3D Artists and VFX experts with experience creating computer generated scenes and assets to join our global network for a high level gaming project. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to improving AI systems for video generation and to impact how AI models understand the logic of the physical world.

Rather than traditional VFX work, we are offering an opportunity to licence existing 'on-the-shelf' works from your archives, plus hourly compensation ($15-30/h) for technical processing.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Asset licencing: Licence existing works from your personal/ studio archives for a flat fee
  • Technical processing including rendering, layering, and preparing these files to our data specifications
  • In some cases, making variations to scenes and re-rendering

What You'll Bring

  • Experience as a 3D, Technical or VFX Artist or Compositor in games, film or digital production
  • Experience with Unreal Engine, Unity & Houdini, Maya / Blender / Cinema4D and similar
  • Expertise in rendering, lighting and texturing
  • Comfortable using technical workflows and tools
  • Existing assets for licensing, with scenes separated into coherent, compositable layers

Why join this project?

This is an opportunity to licence your existing assets and to apply your expertise in VFX design on a flexible, ad hoc basis, in order to help improve AI systems for video generation with better controllability for creators.

Please note that you must be new to Prolific to sign up successfully. If you already have a Prolific account, there is no need to register again; simply ensure your profile is up to date to be eligible for opportunities.

Why Prolific is a great platform to join as an expert participant

Joining our platform as a participant will give you the chance to influence the AI models of the future. Once you pass our assessment, you can join Prolific in just 15 minutes and start enjoying competitive pay rates, flexible hours, and the ability to work from home.

We've built a unique platform that connects researchers and companies with a global pool of participants, enabling the collection of high-quality, ethically sourced human behavioral data and feedback. This data is the cornerstone of developing more accurate, nuanced, and aligned AI systems.

We believe that the next leap in AI capabilities won't come solely from scaling existing models, but from integrating diverse human perspectives and behaviors into AI development. By providing this crucial human data infrastructure, Prolific is positioning itself at the forefront of the next wave of AI innovation – one that reflects the breadth and the best of humanity.
