  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills with the ability to effectively support both creative and technical teams.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities and the confidence to anticipate production issues before they become roadblocks.
  • High level of attention to detail and commitment to maintaining accurate production data.
  • Proficiency with Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience coordinating Visual Effects productions or working alongside VFX artist teams.
  • Working knowledge of CG production pipelines, including animation, lighting, environments, cameras, rendering, and compositing.
  • Previous experience supporting an Unreal Engine production team on a feature film, episodic series, game, or virtual production.
