3D Light Supervisor

As a 3D Light Supervisor at ILP it's your responsibility to support the VFX supervisors vision, and PMs schedule, to deliver the show in all of its areas. You will be responsible for facilitating communication within the team and between departments and when necessary the client. Your secondary responsibility is to develop, support and QC creative and technical approaches in her/his own department. You will also help with the development of other artists.
In addition, we expect our light supervisors to be able to do hands on work when needed, which includes lighting related tasks as well as basic modelling and lookdev as well as slap compositing of shots. A clear understanding of the entire VFX pipeline is also important as it helps in communicating effectively with the other disciplines.
We currently use Houdini for most scene assembly, Arnold for rendering and Nuke for compositing. That said, we always premiere quick learners over software specific knowledge.
This, together with a culture that encourages everyone to chip in with their ideas, is what enables ILP to deliver the quality we are known for.
