DK Global is the nations leading litigation visuals firm, producing 3D animations and illustrations to aid trial attorneys as they advocate for justice. This industry is challenging, high paced, and exciting.
Working primarily with the Production department, the Visual Media Editor/Compositor will utilize expertise in Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Photoshop, and Audition to edit, composite, and add motion graphics to visual media. Content will largely be provided by studio animators, illustrators and compositors, and will take the form of storyboards, 2D and 3D animations and illustrations. Editor reviews and edits raw film or video footage to clean up and help create a final video render. Also adds sound effects, graphic and special effects, and improves the quality of video for the final product — digitally splicing film and video, and synchronizing them into one rough cut file: improving and correcting lighting, coloring, and any faulty footage and sound.
This position may also film video for projects and case features, including filming on location when necessary – and will subsequently review and edit the video footage to create a final video render.
