Senior Producer (Freelance)

Company Description Huffman Creative is an award-winning production studio specializing in scalable cinematic content for brands, artists, and creative teams. Known for speed, precision, and a collaborative production model, we partner closely with clients from early development through final delivery.

Our work spans commercial campaigns, documentary projects, and original content, often operating across multiple timelines, teams, and distribution platforms.

Why This Role Matters As our slate continues to grow, we are looking for a Senior Post Producer to take ownership of post-production across our short-form projects.

This role is designed to operate as the post counterpart to our production leadership, owning the day-to-day execution of post so that Executive Producers can remain focused on creative direction, client relationships, and high-level strategy.

This role is expected to operate independently, maintaining momentum across projects and making informed decisions that keep post moving forward at all times.

Own post-production workflows across multiple projects, from edit through final delivery and archive, serving as the primary decision-maker for day-to-day post operations.
Lead communication across editors, colorists, sound designers, VFX artists, and finishing teams, maintaining momentum without requiring constant EP oversight.
Proactively identify risks and implement solutions early to keep projects on track, escalating only when necessary.
Ensure all deliverables meet technical specifications for digital, broadcast, and platform-specific releases.

Post Operations & Delivery
Maintain project file structures, naming conventions, and version control across all platforms.
Build and oversee delivery workflows, including exports, QC, versioning, captioning, and platform-specific formatting.
Manage final delivery to clients, platforms, and distribution partners, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
Oversee final archiving and client asset handoff, ensuring long-term accessibility and organization.

Build and maintain strong relationships with freelance editors, post houses, finishing vendors, and specialists.
Source and assemble post teams based on the needs of each project, balancing creative fit, efficiency, and budget considerations.
Maintain continuity of creative intent and client expectations from production through final delivery.
Bridge communication between production and post, ensuring all assets, notes, and expectations are properly carried through.

Creative Oversight & Execution
Review editorial progress and provide feedback before client delivery to ensure alignment with creative intent and quality standards.
Support editors and post teams in shaping structure, pacing, and storytelling where needed.
Maintain a high quality bar across all deliverables, including cutdowns and versioned assets.
Optimize internal tools and processes to improve efficiency and clarity across projects.
Forecast post-production needs across projects and scale resources accordingly.

Collaborate with EPs on documentary and long-form post strategies, including editorial timelines and delivery planning.
Support development efforts with post considerations such as archival workflows, versioning, and long-term asset management.

Enjoy owning projects and being accountable for outcomes.
Are naturally proactive and take initiative to keep projects moving without waiting for direction.
Have strong instincts around prioritization and can balance speed with quality.
4 to 7 years of post-production producing experience, with a strong background in commercial, branded, or agency environments. (Experience in documentary or long-form projects is a plus.)

• Experience working directly with freelance editors, post vendors, and finishing teams.
• Strong understanding of post-production pipelines, including editorial, color, sound, VFX, and delivery.
