Part-Time Animator (2D/3D)

Location: Remote
Type: Part-Time (potential to transition to Full-Time after 3 months)

Are you an animator who can bring lovable plushies to life? Our client, a vibrant plushie brand, is seeking a talented animator to create whimsical, engaging animations. Whether through the magic of 3D or the artistry of 2D frame-by-frame animation, you’ll help these plushies capture hearts and tell their stories.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop delightful animations showcasing plushie characters in motion.
  • Work collaboratively with the creative team to craft animations that align with the brand’s playful and charming personality.
  • Begin part-time with the opportunity to move into a full-time role after 3 months based on performance and project success.
  • Complete a design test as part of the selection process (after discussing project budget and scope).

What We’re Looking For

  • 3D Animators: Expertise in creating lifelike, engaging animations using software like Blender, Maya, or Cinema 4D.
  • 2D Frame-by-Frame Animators: Exceptional skills in classical animation with tools like Toon Boom Harmony or Adobe Animate.
  • A portfolio demonstrating strong character animation and storytelling abilities.
  • Experience translating character designs into dynamic and fluid animations.
  • Attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines.

Bonus Points

  • Previous experience animating plush or soft-textured characters.
  • A creative flair for storytelling with a touch of whimsy.

Compensation

The budget for this project is currently undefined, as we are exploring market rates. Compensation will be negotiated based on experience and skills.

Note: If securing a 3D animator proves challenging or cost-prohibitive, skilled 2D frame-by-frame animators will be our next preference.
