Mid-level and Senior Compositors:
A Hollywood-based leader in premium 3D and stereoscopic VFX for feature films is looking for experienced compositors and TDs for several high profile projects. We’re looking for artists who are not only great at their craft, but are also capable of training, critiquing and mentoring other artists.
The company is renowned in the industry as an artist-friendly studio with an only slightly dysfunctional family atmosphere. We also understand the "freshness" of the emerging stereoscopic effects market and are willing to invest in training our employees to be world-class stereo compositors and animators.
Nuke competency is a strong plus in our desired skillset, though individuals highly skilled in other compositing systems will be considered. Candidates skilled in 3D matchmoving, 3D modeling or character animation are also of interest.
Specialized training will commence in October (with the possibility of after hours training for those still working existing contracts). Short and long-term contracts available based on skill and experience.
