Mumbai, September 30, 2013: Prime Focus World (PFW), the global
leader in visual entertainment services, is set to hire more than 450
Visual Effects specialists for its prestigious project, Sin City: A Dame
to Kill For. Last month, Prime Focus World announced their exclusive
VFX partnership for Robert Rodriguez s long-awaited, ultra-stylized
comic book sequel, scheduled to release in August 2014.
This
project marks PFW s position as the first Indian company to become an
exclusive VFX partner for a tentpole Hollywood project. Given the
magnitude of the work involved, the creative services company is seeking
to hire individuals who specialize in compositing, matte painting,
modeling, conceptualizing, texturing, lighting, and production
coordination. The company will work on more than 2000 visual effects
shots for the much anticipated flick, across their global locations.
A
major part of the project will be worked on from Prime Focus Mumbai
facility and the rest of it will be executed from the company s
Vancouver office. Post completion of the Sin City project, the newly
recruited team will also have the opportunity to be a part of other
Hollywood and Bollywood projects.
For VFX
professionals, Sin City is a cult film offering once in a lifetime
opportunity to showcase talent and hone one s creative skills further.
It certainly adds irresistible value to a creative professional s
resume. Says Mr. Merzin Tavaria, Chief Creative Director and Co-Founder
of Prime Focus, Sin City 2 is a prestigious project for us since its
the first time that any Indian company has become an exclusive VFX
partner for a Hollywood tentpole project of this scale and pedigree.
With this win, we are expanding our team at the Mumbai facility with
over 450 employees. These professionals will have the opportunity to
travel and work alongside and under the direct supervision of
accomplished international VFX talent across our Vancouver and Mumbai
facilities.
Previously, Prime Focus World has
worked on some of the most ambitious Hollywood projects such as White
House Down, The Great Gatsby, Total Recall, Mirror Mirror, Men In Black
3, Avatar and X- Men.
