Present work to clients confidently and translate feedback into creative solutions without losing the integrity of the work
What We're Looking For

A reel/portfolio that demonstrates premium storytelling, visual taste, and craft
Sharp editorial instincts with a working understanding of the full post pipeline
Confidence owning creative decisions in front of both internal teams and clients
High ownership, collaborative mindset - you raise the bar without making it about you
Composure under pressure; solutions-oriented, not surprise-oriented
Required Skills

Strong working knowledge of After Effects
Excellent visual sensibility - design, typography, layout
Solid color workflow fundamentals (DaVinci Resolve or comparable)
Audio fundamentals: dialogue cleanup, mix balance, music and SFX integration
Large-format deliverable experience: LED canvases, non-standard aspect ratios, safe zones, multi-output versions
