If you want to be part of an environment that empowers you to experiment, learn, and contribute to exciting projects, come and join us. We are looking for a Delivery Partner to act as the final gatekeeper for our feature animation project's transition to stereoscopic conversion. This is a high-stakes, "final push" contract role (mid-June through October) where you will be the bridge between our internal stereoscopic prep team and our external conversion vendors.

- An understanding of CG pipelines and the ability to adapt to fast-evolving production needs.
Responsibilities
- Managing the turnover, validation, and delivery of packages for stereoscopic vendors.
