Job Description

The Refinery is an award-winning entertainment advertising agency in Los Angeles, CA. We work with all of the major studios producing social, digital, and print creative campaigns for theatrical, television & streamer clients.

We are looking for candidates who embody our core values. Refiners are talented, kind, client-focused, ego-free, and passionate. While we operate virtually, we've built a culture rooted in connection and care, where people genuinely support one another. We work hard to make sure everyone feels like part of the team.

Enough about us, here's what we're looking for:

We're currently looking for a freelance Junior Finisher to join us as a remote independent contractor. This role will work closely with both our US-based creative teams and our EU-based teams, collaborating daily on high-profile entertainment campaigns. This candidate must be based in or able to work standard business hours aligned with EU time zones (CET/WET).

What Is Finishing?

Finishing is more than retouching. A Finisher's main objective is to rebuild comp files accurate to real life (or whatever world the finish is intended to live in). While this often includes retouching, it also requires creating and assembling high resolution assets so that when the finish (and all of its pieces) is delivered, it can be used for any artwork needs.

Responsibilities

  • You will check all assets and final type for accuracy before final build
  • Understand and execute finishing file priorities as directed by the Director of Finishing and Sr. Finishers, in tandem with Account Management
  • Develop understanding of specific client production guides for file building and delivery
  • Provide accurate time estimates for assigned task completion to Director of Finishing
  • Perform masking and revisions under supervision from Senior Finisher(s)
  • Assist in finishing of platform assignments
  • Maintain daily open communication with assigned mentor
  • Continue to build basic finishing skills (masking, painting, combining images) with the goal of mastery
  • Develop basic understanding of how other company departments work (art direction, account management, production art)
  • Develop basic understanding of organizational file structure and naming layers
  • Store files in appropriate folders using accepted naming conventions

Requirements

  • General understanding of light, shadow, and maintaining appropriate level of realism
  • Positive demeanor and commitment to company, clients, and team
  • Strong attention to detail
  • An openness to learning from other team members 
  • Basic knowledge of Photoshop
  • Ability to collaborate across time zones in a fast-paced production environment
  • Must be based in or able to work standard business hours aligned with EU time zones Monday-Friday (CET/WET)
  • Fluency in English, spoken and written, is required for real-time collaboration, feedback, and training.
