A rather cryptic ad for a studio in Culver City looking for two animators just went live. I presume it’s Sony because they’re the most prominent there but I am not certain. You can read more below.
From the site:
Culver City local Animation Studio needs to fill two positions for current project on upcoming feature film starting immediately. Positions specified below:
Seeking Senior level Maya generalist with experience in particles in effects. Feature film work on your demo reel is required. Some MEL Scripting/Expressions are going to be a sizeable part of this job. You will be working directly with the visual effects supervisor and doing some particles and effects and object animation (no characters). You will also need to know how to work with a tracked camera (some tracking experience is good as well) and modeling some environment geometry for us to create some lighting effects later in comp. Demo reels with similar work to the Watchmen (exploding reactor scene) are on the right track.
Also seeking Senior Level After Effects Compositor. Feature film experience necessary. Must have experience compositing effects such as lighting and particles into feature film plates. Should be an all-around After Effects guru, even to the point of being able to relieve some of the 3D effects work with your After Effects skills.
