The Spectacular Spider-Man Continued Geography 101 (Spectacle Stars)
CarleaJean for Producer/Assistant Production Manager
DISCLAIMER: READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BELOW AND DETERMINE WHETHER THIS ROLE FITS YOUR SKILLSET AND EXPERIENCE BEFORE APPLYING. We will not consider anybody from Instagram or other social media who are fans of Spider-Man or SSM and simply saw our project, got excited, and "wanted to help out in any way they could" ;P While we are absolutely grateful of support like this, simply being a fan of SSM is not enough for a role of this magnitude. We need those with experience and drive here for sure.
We are looking for additional organized and responsible hands who are willing to do some of the more "managerial" side of production, which can include any number of tasks that our producers/execs normally undertake.
Having prior experience with overseeing other productions or projects is something we'd be very keen on with this role, and being proficient with the more "nitty gritty" tasks would be huge here as well.
Something our team could also potentially use is further knowledge with building or maintaining "team culture" in a virtual environment, as we have our own methods that we've developed over time but would be very open to additional insight. Though, this is not necessarily a mandatory thing.
Because of the importance and higher-up nature of a role like this, building trust with the current management staff will be king with whomever would take on this role, as we have a team of producers in place that has been around for a few years, and welcoming newcomers into this kind of fold will likely be a slow process. But as trust is built, confidence is built as well :D
Lastly, this role is not a "creative" one in any general sense. Our producers on the writing team oversee the direction that the project goes in narratively, our voice directing producers handle castings and voice direction, and our producers that are artist/animator leaders will oversee the visual aspects of the production.
Normally, people will have a certain niche expertise in one of the usual fields for animation production where they developed management experience over top of it, and that original expertise will be immensely helpful in addition to the skills we're looking for in this role.
That said, decisions on the creative direction of the project aren't something that we're looking for in this role. If you happen to pitch something, it will obviously be considered and might even be used! But at the same time, compromise is key on a team of our size, and something that you specifically would want to see in the show won't necessarily be something that the writers have in mind or that the original writers Greg Weisman and Victor Cook intended.
Various tasks for this kind of role can include (but are absolutely not limited to):
- DMing team members for regular check-ins, whether it be for a department or on a certain task
- Overseeing announcements to team members
- Monitoring progress of various departments
- Drafting documents or spreadsheets for different plans or tracking progress of team members
- scheduling and hosting various team meetings, especially with a huge variety of team members' time zones kept in mind
- Potential social media tasks or management if that is a strength
