VAPOR POST RESTRUCTURES, ADDS TALENT & GEAR

The repositioning is being overseen by Alan Olem, who was appointed VP/director of sales and marketing back in December.

“We’re setting this company up as a true boutique facility,” explains Olem. The facility has added Autodesk Smoke HD and SD, as well as Apple’s Final Cut Studio 2. Vapor Post also has an HD Avid Adrenaline, Digidesign Pro Tools for audio, Autodesk Flame, Softimage 3D software, Adobe After Effects, and DVD authoring capabilities.

The studio has also added John Holzman as Smoke editor/post production supervisor.

“John has been in the industry a while and brings a wealth of experience, and not just in editing,” says Olem. “He’s going to be directly involved in the workflow of the company and managing our editorial staff, and is going to have a major impact on the direction of the company as well, from a technical and editorial standpoint.”
