Alex Winker April 4, 2018 Share April 4, 2018 I would be very interested in this job, however I have been in Resolve for 5 years and haven't done any extensive work in Baselight. I feel as though I meet and exceed all the other qualifications. I'm a passionate, driven, relatively recent college graduate with 3 years of professional color expereience... in Resolve. Just curious to anybody who might know, if a place like MPC or Technicolor would be willing to consider someone who is not a Baselight expert, but knew the software on a basic level and was a very very quick learner? Any response is greatly appreciated! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites
