Digital Designer

About NEXT/NOW

NEXT/NOW is an experiential agency focused on designing and building immersive, technology-driven environments and activations—from executive briefing centers (EBCs) to permanent experience centers, large-scale branded spaces, and one-of-a-kind experiential moments.

 

We create experiences where story, space, and technology come together—bringing ideas to life visually, physically, and emotionally.


The Role

We’re looking for a Digital Designer with a strong point of view—someone who cares deeply about craft, composition, and motion, and who is constantly studying the world for inspiration.

 

This is a role for a designer who obsesses over the details—typography, pacing, transitions, and visual tone—and who brings that level of care into everything they create.

 

You’ll work across a range of outputs—from motion graphics styleframes and animations to UI, presentations, and social content—helping define the visual language of experiences before they’re built. You don't see 3D as a separate discipline, you utilize it in your day-to-day workflow.

 

You’re also excited about how AI is changing the design process—not replacing it, but expanding what’s possible and how it elevates creative exploration.


What You’ll Do
  • Create high-end motion styleframes that define the visual direction of projects
  • Design and produce animations, visual systems, and experience-driven graphics
  • Contribute to UI design for interactive environments and digital touchpoints
  • Develop presentation decks that clearly and beautifully communicate ideas
  • Support social and marketing content with strong visual storytelling
  • Collaborate closely with creative directors, technologists, and producers
  • Explore and integrate AI tools into your design process where they add value

What You Bring
  • Strong design fundamentals—typography, layout, composition, and motion
  • Advanced proficiency in Cinema 4D, Blender, or similar 3D tools
  • After Effects is your go-to, but interested in Cavalry, Rive, etc...
  • Experience creating motion styleframes and translating them into animation
  • A refined aesthetic sensibility—you know what feels right, not just what works
  • Comfort working across formats: motion, UI, presentations, and digital content
  • Curiosity and openness to AI tools as part of your workflow
  • A desire to keep learning, evolving, and expanding your skillset

How You Work
  • You obsess over details—type, timing, spacing, rhythm
  • You’re constantly collecting inspiration—from film titles, websites, commercials, and beyond
  • You care about craft, but you’re not precious—you iterate and evolve quickly
  • You’re excited by new tools and changing workflows, especially with AI
  • You have been diving deep into Kling, Seedance, and Nano Banana. 
  • You push yourself to get better with every project

A Signal You Might Be a Fit
  • You rewind the title sequences most people skip
  • You’ve rebuilt work just to see how it ticks
  • Your reference library is curated, not collected
  • You’re already using AI as part of your creative process—not experimenting, building
  • You’re never satisfied—and you don’t want to be

Why NEXT/NOW

You’ll work on projects that:

  • Extend beyond the screen into real-world environments
  • Combine motion, interaction, and spatial design
  • Challenge you to think beyond traditional formats

 

This is a place to shape how visual design lives inside immersive environments—and to evolve your craft alongside new tools and technologies.


To Apply

If you care deeply about design, are constantly learning, and want to create work that lives beyond the screen—we’d love to see your work.
