WE

The New Blank is an award-winning design and animation-driven production company based in Seattle, Washington. We are currently expanding our creative team with passionate and highly driven visionaries. We are a band of individuals pulled together with a desire to make. Our clients range from TV networks to traditional and digital agencies to fortune 100 companies and small startups. Story and idea drive us; it’s what wakes us up in the morning and compels everything we do throughout the day.

YOU

You have a highly organized and curious mind, are hungry and motivated to kick this world’s ass. Every day brings new ideas and solutions. Not to mention your innate, unstoppable excitement to see those thoughts and ideas come to life. You are full of potential and have the untapped energy to prove your mettle. Creativity courses through your veins, drawing you like mosquitos to a bug light hanging from a double-wide in Arkansas. You are energized by the creative process and being a vital member of a creative team. It doesn’t matter if you studied at a fantastic school or are self-taught; you have been applying your skills and knowledge longer than old Joe Swanson’s been gumming his meals, all the while embracing and feeding your innate curiosity. You have managed multidisciplinary teams on a variety of projects ranging in complexity. You are neck-deep in team thinking. While you could do it all in your head, spreadsheets and project management software are your secret sauce. Agile, sprints, and Gantt charts are what turns your crank. You will partner with the CDs and the EP to make sure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and without error. Your brain is astounding, and your smile charms the ears off a Gundark.
