Stereoscopic Prep (Lighting & Compositing) Artist - Feature Animation
$1400 - $1700 per weekBardel Entertainment
OUR STORY
For more than 35 years, Bardel Entertainment has been growing and evolving, yet at our core, we remain grounded in the creative roots of the craft of animation. Our pursuit of fresh ideas, techniques, and technologies is driven by the belief that together, through creativity and collaboration, we can accomplish anything! 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 need a Stereoscopic Prep Artist to support a critical delivery phase on a feature animation project. This role is focused on preparing files for stereoscopic conversion by organizing assets, cleaning setups, validating package readiness, and helping ensure the client receives clean, usable deliveries. This is a hands-on role for someone detail-oriented, technically capable, and comfortable working carefully under deadline pressure. Ideal for someone with an LRC background.
You will help prepare files so they are clean, organized, and ready for external handoff. Success in this role means packages are complete, internal-only content is removed, common setup issues are caught early, and the team can move through delivery with fewer last-minute surprises.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Prepare Delivery Files: Organize and package files for stereoscopic conversion, making sure required assets and dependencies are included and structured correctly.
- Clean Shot Setups: Remove internal-only notes, temp elements, hidden data, and anything else that should not be included in the client-facing package.
- Check for Common Issues: Open files, review setups, and flag broken links, missing assets, version mismatches, or other issues that could create downstream problems.
- Support Delivery Readiness: Work closely with the Supervisor and TA to help move shots and packages through final prep efficiently and accurately.
- Maintain Organized Handoffs: Keep files, versions, and delivery materials well organized so the team can track readiness and reduce confusion during busy delivery periods.
Requirements
What you’ll bring:
- Strong Attention to Detail: You notice small inconsistencies and take pride in clean, accurate work.
- Hands-On File Confidence: You are comfortable opening scenes, checking dependencies, and making practical cleanup fixes within established workflows.
- Production Reliability: You can manage repetitive but important tasks carefully, stay organized, and maintain quality under deadline pressure.
- Basic Pipeline Awareness: Production experience in lighting and compositing to follow handoff requirements and spot obvious issues.
- Software: Production experience with Nuke required; Blender experience, knowledge or interest a bonus
- Collaborative Mindset: You communicate clearly, ask smart questions, and work well with a small team during a focused delivery phase.
