  • Communication: Clear, concise communication skills. You are the hub of information for the team.

  • Calm Under Pressure: Ability to manage tight deadlines without transferring stress to the artists.

Nice to have

  • Resource Allocation: Assign tasks to artists based on availability and skillset using ShotGrid.

  • Workflow Management: Identify bottlenecks in the pipeline and unblock artists immediately.
