Job Description

I'm building a long-term animated IP centered around two original characters . I'm running a paid trial to compare AI-assisted animation vs. traditional animation, side by side.

This role is specifically for AI-assisted animation, with a strong emphasis on character expression, comedic timing, and emotional acting.

This is not a multi-scene project.


Important:
Project Structure

One single scene only

Always set inside the same environment

No scene changes, no location hopping


People will watch because:
The characters are expressive

The timing is funny

The emotion lands

This is performance-driven animation, not cinematic scene building.

Scope of the Paid Trial
Phase 1 — Visual Refinement (Required Before Animation)


I already have:
The characters , The scene , The overall visual direction

However, small but critical refinements are required before animation begins:

Minor adjustments to character proportions

Minor refinements to texture and color

Refinement of the background environment (abstract, stylized, consistent)

You must be able to execute precise visual tweaks without changing the overall style.

This refinement phase is part of the paid trial.

Phase 2 — Animation Test

Create a ~60-second animated clip

Single camera setup

No scene cuts


Characters must feel:
Expressive

Alive

Comedic

Emotionally readable


Micro-movements matter:
Eyes

Head tilts

Pauses

Reaction timing

This is where the evaluation happens.

Who This Is For

You are a good fit if you:
Have real experience with AI-assisted animation workflows

Understand character consistency (no visual drift)

Think like an animator, not just a prompt engineer

Have a strong sense of comedic timing and acting

Can keep characters on-model over time

Enjoy character-driven content more than visual spectacle

Contract duration of 1 to 3 months. with 30 hours per week.

Mandatory skills:
Animation, Illustration, 3D Animation, Motion Graphics
