Unfortunately, it’s rare for people to actually read a job description before sending a resume. But if you’re seeing this paragraph, it means you’re thorough and pay attention to details. Thank you! Here’s a tip: Use the words “HANDS” anywhere in your cover letter or resume so we can find it with a word-search. We’ll prioritize your resume by reading it with the same focus you gave this job description. A demo reel of your work is REQUIRED in order to be considered for this position.

• You see this on every job post, but we mean it. This position takes a certain type of person to notice a small detail within a single frame.

3) Organization:

• There will be a constant flow of footage to rummage through. It will be up to you to maintain and organize content.

4) After Effects Animation / FX:

• We don’t do much AE work, but if you’re familiar with AE you get bonus points that will open more opportunities for you.

• Edit and assemble raw footage into polished videos that compliment education, storytelling and comedy.
