Why be a Runner?
Running is the best way to get your foot in the door at DNEG. All our runners join us with the aim of moving up in the business, managing and supporting VFX production.

What is the career route for a Runner?
Our production runners are looking to move into VFX Production roles; starting as a Runner, you move into a Production Assistant role on your first show, then into coordination and beyond until you are an award winning VFX Producer
