Calling Ingenious Individuals From All Continents To Join Merlin Entertainments' ‘Creative Network’!

Are you a consummate creative, sensational storyteller, excited entertainer, animated artist, or talented tinkerer of tech?

If the answer is an emphatic YES!, we warmly invite you to present your passion to us, the R&D team, here at the creative heart of Merlin’s portfolio of theme parks, resorts and attractions.

We’ve got a ton of exciting projects in the pipeline, from bold new brands, to evolutionary innovations and additions to the existing estate.

At the same time we are always nurturing new, compelling concepts for our future projects, so that we can continue to thrill and amuse our world audience.

Often, our new projects emerge from the exciting ideas, that are proposed and brainstormed by our external think-tank, or as we like to call it, our global Creative Network.

Could you join our Network, and be the source of a seed idea that we can grow into a fresh, exhilarating experience that will transform the landscape of entertainment?

If so, we are keen to hear from creatives working at all scales; ingenious individuals from diverse disciplines including, but not exclusive to:

• Immersive theatre & events, immersive dining
• Light & sound artists & hardware producers
• Ride & attraction based manufacturers
• Artists: illustrators, story-boards, graphic designers, sculptors & automata producers
• Film makers & animators, stop-motion & digital, CGI artists
• IP creators
• Robotics
• Set & prop design for theatre, film, TV, events & attractions
• Authors & script writers, including comedy
• Stand up comedians
• Magicians, circus performers
• Film, TV & theatre actors & performers
• Digital gaming & gaming environments, VR, AR & haptics
• Toy and analogue game producers

Deadline: 30 June 2022

Once selected to join our Creative Network, you will be invited to participate in quarterly think-tank sessions where you can present your compelling concepts to other members, and the internal creatives from the R&D team. This will also provide you with a great opportunity to form enduring creative relationships.

Invitations to the sessions, which will be held through Microsoft Teams (video conference), will be sent to a mix of applicants who we believe are best suited to respond to the quarterly creative brief in hand.

The Creative Network will also provide the R&D team with a range of individuals and companies who we can call on to work and supply projects in our pipeline, at all stages, from seed idea to delivery.

We are very proud to be partnering with Blooloop, itself a key driver of creativity and innovation excellence in the entertainment industry.

We look forward to be dazzled by your submissions.

Best wishes

The Merlin R&D Team
