Job Specification - Full time Director wanted with excellent creative development & shooting skills, plus experience working with visual effects.

Spectrecom Films is based in Kennington, London and produces award-winning films, TV commercials, corporate, charity and branded content for some of the world's leading brands and biggest digital agencies. We are recruiting a full time Director to join our filmmaking department.

Key Responsibilities

Spectrecom work on a wide variety of projects and production genres, and you will need to be comfortable Directing any type of production and adapting your directing style to suit.

We are looking for a solid performer who can work in both narrative and visual effects workflows, someone who comes with a creative edge who can bring alive productions with enthusiasm and flair, steering creatives from pre-production, on set and in post.

You will be responsible for effectively communicating your ideas - this could be at creative pitches before a project is sold, or generating clear, well produced documents to communicate your ideas and planning - storyboards, shot lists, mood boards, directors plans etc.

During production itself you will manage staff on set - so you will need a good understanding of all aspects of production, set etiquette and production workflow. It will be your responsibility to make sure a production runs to schedule, so good client liaison and communication skills are a must. Working with our producers you will make sure that everything is in place for a shoot to go ahead successfully. You will also need an artistic eye and good level of directing experience, to ensure the highest standards of filmmaking.

Finally, you will also need a flexible skill set - you may be required to edit projects or undertake camerawork from time to time.
