As Grimm fades to black, it’s hard not to get a little nostalgic considering the massive contribution to our local VFX scene. But this also signals a call to action and the need to pull together quickly, to keep as many of the dozens of Ex-Grimm artists here and gainfully employed as possible. Local studios, agencies, and other companies operating in the VFX/CG/Post/Game space are on baord.
Next Monday, March 20, from 5-7pm at co-working space CENTRL (Eastside), VFX/PDX presents “A Very Grimm Happy Hour.” This is a VFX+CG job fair, done up Portland style.
Companies interviewing:
LAIKA
ShadowMachine
HouseSpecial
SuperGenius
Hinge Digital
Deep Sky
Sprocketship
9iFX
Juliet Zulu
Cinco Design
Sockeye
Joint
…and more TBA
This event is open to all – Grimm is the catalyst, but any prospective/job hunting Portland based post production artist or support staff who’d like to express interest is invited. Not limited to CG/VFX – Editors, Producers, Coordinators, IT, etc. If interested and you’d like to submit your materials, please fill out this form to have your info pushed to those hiring.
