Production Coordinator (General) – Series

Job Position(s): Production Coordinator (General) - Series

Sony Pictures Animation is hiring a Production Coordinator (General) for an animated series production based in Los Angeles, California. This role sits at the operational center of the front end departments, supporting the Producer and Production Manager across Story, Script, Editorial, Visual Development, and Production. It suits a coordinator-level professional with hands-on animation studio experience who knows how pre-production pipelines actually run.

About the Role

The Production Coordinator works directly within the series production pipeline at one of the few studios in Los Angeles dedicated entirely to pre-production animation, handling both feature animation and animated series. Day to day, this means keeping tracking software current, managing files across shared drives, scheduling production meetings, and making sure the right information reaches the right people at the right time. The role sits between production management and the creative departments, so clear communication and tight organization are the actual job.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate and schedule production meetings across front end departments including Story, Script, and Visual Development, and take accurate notes for distribution to the team.
• Maintain data entry and status tracking in Shotgrid, keeping the production pipeline current for the Producer and Production Manager.
• Organize production artwork files and documentation within established directory structures on Google Shared Drives so assets are retrievable by the broader crew.
• Handle travel coordination, expense reports, and departmental supply orders on behalf of production management.
• Field requests from Directors, Department Heads, and crew members, directing inquiries internally and externally to the correct department.
• Keep supervisors advised with accurate, timely updates and flag issues before they affect the production schedule.

What You Bring

• Previous work experience in an animation studio office or on a CG series production at the coordinator level or equivalent.
• Working knowledge of the pre-production and CG series pipeline, including how Story, Editorial, and Visual Development departments interact.
• Proficiency with Shotgrid, Google Shared Drives, Photoshop, Microsoft Word and Excel, and comfort working across Mac and PC operating systems.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities across departments without losing accuracy in tracking or file management.
• A high degree of discretion when handling production materials, personnel matters, and confidential project information.

Why This Role

Sony Pictures Animation has built a reputation for giving filmmakers genuine creative authority over their projects, which means the production infrastructure behind each series carries real weight. The anticipated base salary for this position is $25.00/hour to $31.00/hour, and the role may also qualify for incentives and comprehensive benefits. For a coordinator looking to deepen their experience in animated series production at a studio with a distinct creative identity, this is a substantive next step.
