On Artisty, productions and VFX studios post roles from roto to VFX producer. Pick your VFX roles, list your software and upload a breakdown reel. Matching roles reach you as studios post them.

Roto artists cut precise mattes and clean plates so elements can be separated. Compositors use those to build the final shot, combining plates, CG and effects.

Yes. Roto and paint roles are the usual entry point. Show clean, accurate mattes on a few shots rather than a long reel.

Both. Some roles are remote and some are on a studio floor, and each role says which, so apply to the ones that suit you.

Only with the studio's permission. Many artists share breakdowns privately with the role they're applying for until the show is out.

Joining is free, and applications use credits. The pricing page sets out what each plan includes.
