Felix Film revised its animator job listing for new graduates on Saturday, October 17, 2026, removing a requirement that applicants be able to create illustrations using Blender or image generative AI.
The updated listing instead asks for applicants interested in using Blender and other 3D CG tools in key animation, and states that the studio is studying how AI technology can support creators' work.
Felix Film said it has not decided to implement generative AI for images in the studio, but is examining its potential future use. The studio added that it intends the technology to support its creative talent rather than replace them.
