VFX Compositing Supervisor
The compositing supervisor will take ownership of a team of Nuke compositors, ensuring that they are moving smoothly through shots. Key to the position is the ability to problem-solve specific compositing issues and educate individual compositors on the solutions.
The compositing supervisor will be responsible for ensuring all shot notes have been addressed prior to review by the stereoscopic supervisor.

• A thorough comprehension of the underlying principles of compositing
• At least two years experience supervising compositors
• Good, stereoscopic vision (sorry, no monocular eye injuries)

Stereoscopic Supervisor
The stereoscopic supervisor will be responsible for reviewing all shots for technical accuracy prior to delivery to client. The stereo super will make internal change lists for shots, then enter and review them in the studio’s shotgun tracking system. They will also be involved in review sessions with client studios and be responsible for accurately recording client change requests during screens and correctly communicating those requests to artists. Finally, the stereo super will be responsible for ensuring that artists understand the change requests and work with the compositing supervisor to confirm that the changes are implemented.
Essential Skills
• The stereoscopic supervisor must have solid experience evaluating stereo images for inconsistencies in depth, roundness, connectivity of objects and edges.
• The ability to communicate well with clients in a professional and friendly manner.
• The ability to work with client depth and convergence specifications and proactively address potential issues in the client’s initial choices
• Communicate well with the compositing supervisor to ensure all notes are in process and being addressed.
Desirable Skills
• Compositing and depth matte experience, especially in Nuke
• An understanding of stereoscopic playback systems
• Good management and scheduling abilities
• Experience with 3D animation packages
• Experience with the shotgun tracking system
