Post Production Producer (360° VR)

To strengthen our team, we are looking for a Post Production Producer (360° VR) who will take ownership of our immersive post-production from raw footage to final delivery.
This role is ideal for an experienced 360° VR video editor / immersive post-production specialist who wants to own the full pipeline from rough stitch to final delivery.
 
Role in the company
As a Post-production Producer, you are the operational heart of 360° VR post-production at L1VE. You implement what others only plan: you take responsibility for stitching, editing, color grading, 3D audio and delivery – from raw material to final submission.

Your focus will be on developing and implementing attractive, tailor-made concepts for our platform and events. You know the technical and aesthetic requirements of immersive media inside out – and you deliver with the precision, speed and quality standards that characterize L1VE.
Together with the Senior Postproduction Manager, you will develop a scalable, reproducible post-production "machine" – and you will be the one who keeps it running every day.
 
Your responsibilities

• Carry out the entire 360° VR post-production process operationally: stitching (Mistika VR), color grading (DaVinci Resolve), compositing & finishing (After Effects) and final delivery in all relevant formats – independently, from start to finish.
• Take responsibility for spatial audio post-production: 3D audio editing, ambisonics processing and coordination with the sound team – with the goal of delivering a fully immersive experience in image and sound.
• Actively maintain and further develop the post-production pipeline: proxy workflows, file structures, naming conventions, status tracking in Planner – you make sure that every step is documented and traceable.
• Ensure quality at every stage of production: technical QC in image and audio, compliance with delivery specs, approvals – you do not send out anything that is not L1VE level.
• Coordinate closely with the Senior Postproduction Manager, the content team and tech – and provide clear, early feedback if timelines, material or specs don’t fit.
• Accompany productions on-set when needed: you know the camera setups, understand what is needed for post-production, and make sure that the material arrives exactly as required.
• Whether it’s live sports, music events or brand productions: you are the last resort before submission – and you know what it means when your name is attached to it.

Experience, knowledge and skills

• At least 2 years of practical experience in 360° VR or immersive post-production – you have already carried out real projects independently from rough stitch to delivery.
• Hands-on experience with:
  • Mistika VR (stitching & optical flow)
  • DaVinci Resolve (color grading & finishing)
  • After Effects (compositing, effects, equirectangular workflows)
• Solid understanding of 3D spatial audio workflows (Ambisonics, Dolby Atmos, binaural rendering) – you know how image and sound work together to create an immersive experience.
• Experience with proxy workflows and large file pipelines (RAW, ProRes, 8K+) and the ability to organize raw footage so that a team can work with it – not just you alone.
• Familiarity with PM tools such as Microsoft Planner, Notion or Confluence – you can independently maintain, document and make your project status transparent.

Personal competencies & mindset

• Hands-on to the core – you sit at the timeline, not in the meeting.
• Precise and quality-conscious – you see mistakes that others don’t see, and you don’t let them through.
• Resilient under pressure – live productions don’t wait, neither do you.
• Real enthusiasm for immersive media, 360° VR and what makes spatial audio an experience.
• Communicative and reliable – your team, your manager and your partners always know where a project stands.

Educational requirements

• Completed studies or training in media production, film, audio engineering, media management or a comparable field – or an equivalent qualification through proven practical experience in immersive post-production.
• Mistika VR, DaVinci Resolve, and After Effects are your daily tools – you can run optical flow stitching, equirectangular compositing workflows, and 360°-specific color pipelines on your own.

Language requirements

• English and German: fluent in business – you communicate confidently with international teams, studios and brand partners. 
• Any additional languages are a plus.

Travel

• Approx. 25% (on-set productions, events, partner meetings).

We are not looking for someone who has done "something with media". We are looking for someone who knows what 360° material smells like when it is good – and what you have to do to make it sound and look like it. If that’s you: bring it on.
