MSG is looking for a Director of Artist Pipeline Technology to join a groundbreaking post-production department based in Los Angeles. As the content delivery team for the MSG Sphere projects, we strive to create world-class content at an unprecedented scale for the largest LED screens ever made.
This role is responsible for collaborating with each show’s creative team, live action production, Editorial Integration I/O, & QC, and the VFX Technical Supervisor to determine the scope, budget, and schedule for all VFX activities required. This role involves on-set oversight to assure that VFX elements are captured within the agreed-upon specifications, and to help problem solve or flag any issues that will lead to adjustments in schedule or budget. During post production, this role will involve staffing, scheduling, and managing an internal VFX team as well as overseeing third party VFX vendors in collaboration with the VFX Technical supervisor. This position requires a high level of organization and management of large budgets with activities distributed across the globe.
Candidates must demonstrate real world experience and a proven track record of applying all of the above processes within the walls of a fast-moving creative environment while remaining conscious of each project's budget constraints.
