The team explains how Hotspring allows you to get multiple bids, award work, communicate, manage your projects and receive deliveries all in one place
Hotspring is a platform for managing the outsource of VFX prep (roto, paint, tracking, assets, etc) where you can compare prices quickly, talk to sellers instantly, and deliver significant cost savings while working with the best creative talent around the world.
Hotspring allows you to get multiple bids, award work, communicate, manage your projects and receive deliveries all in one place. When the pandemic hit, many traditional outsourcing studios shut down, so we pulled together some freelancers from our extensive network, to execute on VFX work. At that moment, Flashteam was born and we now have a large network of handpicked talent under that banner, all managed by our full-time production team and creatives.

Is your company prepared to work remotely?
Media and entertainment organizations have unique requirements that should not be ignored even in the wake of crisis. To quickly and reliably transfer large media files over the internet, companies need file acceleration, defense-in-depth security, flexible user administration, powerful reporting and other tools to maintain business continuity and support a distributed workforce.

The last few weeks have driven home how disruptive unforeseen turmoil can be for the industry. While events such as the 2011 Tohoku tsunami and the SARS pandemic have demonstrated threats to business continuity in the past, the swiftness with which COVID-19 has impacted societal and economic norms is one more reminder that almost everyone needs remote access in order to be prepared to work from anywhere, often on short notice.
