and the Frog," directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, and "Rapunzel,"
directed by Glen Keane and Dean Wellins.=20

We are currently seeking:

Lighters (Shot Finalers)
Texture Painter
Character Finalers (Technical Animators)
FX/Dynamics Senior Development Software Engineer
Render Tools Senior Software Engineer
Systems Engineer

Please see below for additional information and how to apply.

-------------------------------------------------------
Lighters (Shot Finalers)
Shot Finalers are responsible for finessing the lighting on a shot and
compositing together the resulting character and environment renders
into a final shot. They assemble incoming data (models, looks,
animation, efx) from upstream departments for lighting adjustments;
create light rigs and adjust the lighting in those files; render the
necessary levels; use appropriate compositing software to create a
composite tree that combines the rendered levels and adjust the final
composite until it meets the vision of the Director and Art Directors
and Sequence Leads.=20

To apply, please visit
http://corporate.disney.go.com/files/WDAS_Submission_Form.pdf and follow
the instructions to submit your reel via mail or digital upload.
--------------------------------------------------------
Texture Painter
The Texture Painter will paint a wide variety of texture maps (e.g.
color maps, specular maps, displacement maps, etc.) using proprietary
and public 2D and 3D paint tools and use a proprietary,
expression-driven toolset to efficiently create procedural textures They
will work with the Look Development TDs to create the materials that
define the look of 3D characters and/or objects used in production. They
create and maintain texture maps, command files and all other assets
that are associated with the look of a 3D character and/or object and
plug all created texture maps into renderman shaders and manipulate
shader parameters to define the organic surface qualities.=20

To apply, please visit
http://corporate.disney.go.com/files/WDAS_Submission_Form.pdf and follow
the instructions to submit your reel via mail or digital upload.
---------------------------------------------------------
Character Finalers (Technical Animators)
Character Finalers work directly with the character animators and
modelers to define and create the controls that will allow the animator
the creative freedom to pursue the ultimate in digital acting and
performance. They are responsible for character setup, creating
skeletons, IK's and deformers and assist the animators on
software/UNIX/Maya issues as well as the use of implemented character
animation controls and systems.=20

To apply, please visit
http://corporate.disney.go.com/files/WDAS_Submission_Form.pdf and follow
the instructions to submit your reel via mail or digital upload.
--------------------------------------------------------

procedures and problems and designing and implementing software relating
to a variety of subjects in the area of physical simulation and related
phenomena, including but not limited to: cloth (preferred for this
specific opening), hair, dynamics, fluid simulation, procedural modeling
and animation, and particle simulation.=20
Qualified candidates will have nine plus years (including in-school)
experience in development using multiple languages, including C++ on
UNIX/Linux. Additional experience with Python, Perl or MEL is desirable.
Experience in the development of 3D Computer Graphics Tools is a

systems, making recommendations to improve quality, efficiency, and
workflow, and ultimately developing software tools for animation
production. They should have experience developing lighting, rendering
and compositing software as well as experience with Renderman or other
rendering and ray tracing software. They should be knowledgeable in the
latest research in the areas of lighting and rendering. Experience in
related topics such as GPU rendering or global illumination desirable.
Qualified candidates should have five years experience in object
oriented development using C++ and Linux. Additional experience with
Python, Perl or MEL is desirable. Experience in the development of 3D
graphics applications is a necessity.=20

To apply, please send resume and cover letter to tech.jobs-P5ys19MLBK/[email protected]=20
--------------------------------------------------------
Systems Engineer
The Systems Engineer will be responsible for the design, implementation
and troubleshooting of broad, complex systems applications and core
infrastructure solutions relating to data management and high
performance computing for animated movie production. The Systems
Engineer will work with Production and Technology on profiling of the
production pipeline and performance tuning and as it relates to Data
Services. This will include analysis of existing backup/restore,
disaster recovery and archiving systems and identifying opportunities
for process improvement. The Systems Engineer will also work with
production, systems and outside vendors to design and implement a
centralized image archive library based on Disney Animation requirements
and best practices.
Candidates should have 4+ years Linux/Unix systems engineering
experience in complex heterogeneous environments, well developed
programming and scripting skills including C, C++, Perl, Python and
expertise in high performance, high density, high availability storage
