Talent 

Attracting and promoting the best and brightest the industry

We rounded out our executive team with some exceptional talent. Hotspring welcomed Andra Bard as Executive Producer, Nico Cotta as Global Creative Director and Anshul Gattani as Senior Producer. We also recently promoted Arvind Upadhyay to General Manager and appointed Gemma Humphries as Executive Producer..

Tech

Committed to enhancing the Hotspring platform

Hotspring launched Autonaming to enable seamless integration with client pipelines. Our auto-naming feature, which allows clients to set exact delivery specs is being enforced programmatically across all deliverables on the Hotspring platform. You no longer have to choose between great talent and a scalable workflow. On Hotspring you can do both.

Autodesk Shotgrid now integrates with Hotspring. The integration eliminates the need to double up on work by having to update two separate project management systems.  Working together with our studio partners, we decided to focus on the primary pain point of our user base – the lack of synchronization for notes and feedback. By addressing this pain point, we’re streamlining the feedback process across systems, enabling frictionless communication between our clients and the Hotspring talent network.

From talent to tools – Hotspring’s range of services is expanding. 

Our global team of handpicked professionals is ready to become an extension of your in-house VFX team and help you realize your creative vision. From rotoscoping, clean up, and tracking to compositing and CG asset creation, we provide access to a worldwide network of experienced artists, assembling agile teams tailored to your project’s needs.
