\nArt Institute of Portland
\n1122 NW Davis St
\n3rd Floor\/Student Commons loft<\/p>\n

Parking:\u00a0 the “Brewery Blocks” garage directly beneath the Art Institute (under Whole Foods) is probably your best bet.\u00a0 There is another (brick) garage across the street that could be a 2nd option.<\/p>\n

LAIKA may be the catalyst, but this event is open to all – from student to supervisor.\u00a0 *Important note:\u00a0 <\/strong>After the public event, individual companies can opt to schedule private interviews with candidates that they’d like to go a bit more in-depth with.\u00a0 These interviews will happen in offices down the hall from the main event from 7-9pm later that night, so you might want keep that time available in case you’re contacted or tagged for one (or more) private interviews<\/strong>.\u00a0 Pencil in some extra time and don’t make any plans or let that babysitter go quite so early, whatever your case may be.\u00a0 This facet of the event offers real job prospects and hiring potential, ratcheting up from a mere meet and greet to a serious job event!<\/p>\n

Please help us track numbers by RSVP’ing for this event – grab your free ticket over at Eventbrite now:\u00a0\u00a0 https:\/\/bit.ly\/2xFiqQR<\/a><\/p>\n

LAIKA artists being rolled off – get in touch with LAIKA HR about how best to take advantage of the reverse recruting efforts and the links to submit your materials.\u00a0 In addition to the above Portland based companies, there are several studios from Vancouver BC (including Sony Imageworks, Double Negative, Method, Animal Logic + others) who will be remotely recruiting the LAIKA artists who express interest.\u00a0 MPC is making the trip down to recruit directly, and others may as well.<\/p>\n

We’ll see you at the event!\u00a0 Special thanks to the Art Institute<\/a> for the space, and huge thanks to collaborator OMPA<\/a> for overall event support and especially for helping to fold in our brothers + sisters from the stop-mo\/production side who are equally impacted.\u00a0 Food and beverage sponsors so far include Brew Dr.<\/a> and Viso<\/a>, so a big thanks to them for supporting our event.\u00a0 Let’s make Portland work!<\/strong><\/p>\n
