Your role? As a Senior Compositor, you will combine live action and computer-generated elements into visual effects shots that realize the vision and creative direction of the client and Visual Effects Supervisor. You will work with things like live action plates, 2D tracking, matte extraction, layering elements, and color grading to create seamlessly integrated shots.
