FAQs When does this job start and how long will production last?

Immediately. We anticipate the series to run for 3 seasons but at this time we are looking to secure an effects specialist for the first season. If there is a mutual continued interest after completing the production of Season 1, there will be potential for the character modeler specialist to stay on board for the production of Seasons 2 and 3.

How much work is needed?

Is this a paying job?

Yes but not up front as we are following a crowd-funding campaign structure, which means there may be no guarantee of payment for works created.

Compensation is a percentage based on total crowdfunding campaign revenue. Compensation will only be provided if campaign funding goal is met and please keep in mind it could be a year or longer until you get paid – however long production takes is how long it will take the crowdfunding campaign to start, which means the more eager and productive you are, the faster we can get through the production of this series, and the faster not just you but everyone on the production team will get paid.
