Company: Technicolor
Job Title: Production Coordinator (TDP111010)
Location: Burbank, California
Department: VFX
Reports To: Project Producer

Overall Purpose and Objective

The Production Coordinator provides support to the production team for Stereoscopic (3D) Conversion projects. Integral in assigning and tracking shot progression, setting up daily review sessions, maintaining shot note history, managing data flow, providing status updates and communicating between facilities and departments.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

• Work closely with the Producers, Stereographers and Supervisors, Artist crew and other necessary departments in tasks needed to deliver the project.
• Setup daily review sessions and responsible for clear and accurate note taking with timely distribution for all shot reviews and related meetings.
• Responsible for maintaining production database
• Communicates production updates to assigned artist teams
• Coordinates transfer of data between facilities
• Preps and organizes client deliveries and required logs and protocols.
• Generates and maintains production reports
• Works with production team to ensure shots are scheduled and delivered on time.

Requirements

• 3+ years proven production experience at a visual effects facility and/or animation facility.
• You must be highly organized with the ability to multi-task in a dynamic environment
• Customer service oriented with the ability to motivate within a team environment
• Must have excellent written and oral communication skills
• Proficient computer skills are required using MS Office, Production Management and Asset Tracking systems
• Strong understanding of VFX Production pipelines is a must.
• Understanding stereoscopic filmmaking principles a plus.

The above are minimum requirements. Resumes from more experienced candidates are welcome. Compensation and responsibilities will depend on experience/qualifications.

Hello everyone,
I’ve decided to develop some research that I could’t completely realize during my Master Thesis, really hope you guy’s can help me here a bit. Softwares and their solvers was one the steps I could’t completely fulfill because of some doubts from my behalf and also because my research could only take half the way.
So,

Maya Fluids – Grid based + Height Field + Semi – Lagrangian;

Maya nParticles – Particle based + SPH;

Realflow – Particle based + SPH + Hybrid Fluid (grid & particle based);

Houdini – Particle & grid based + SPH + Semi-Lagrangian for Pyro right? + FLIP fluid is a hybrid between volumetric fluid and SPH fluid;

Blender – Particle based + Lattice Boltzmann method;

Softimage – Particle based + SPH ICE + Lagoa Multiphysics uses an unified solver to simulate different materials but what kind? Eulerian, Lagrangian, Hybrid?

Fume Fx (3ds Max) – Grid based + Semi-Lagrangian;

Naiad – I think it uses an hybrid solver right? Some doubts here. I know it has a dynamic solver and a simulation framework able to create liquid and gases effects.

Glud3D (3ds Max, Maya & Softimage) – Particle based + SPH or Lattice Boltzmann method?

Phoenix FD (3ds Max) – Grid based + Semi-Lagrangian right? Similar to Fume Fx?

Effex (C4D) – Grid and Particle based right?

Turbulence 4D (C4D) – Grid based + Semi-Lagrangian?

Dynamite Voxel Engine (Lightwave 3D) – Grid and Particle based?

PhyFluid3D – none information available.

Hope I can get some help here.
I’ll continue with my research.
I think all of us that love fluid simulations would love it.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
