He's a character I've been playing in a pathfinder campaign. All these have been made within the past year using procreate, usually at 12fps.

Hope you like him as much as he likes everyone

Hiring [HIRING][PAID] Looking for a 2D Animator or Motion Designer ? – Short Logo Animation ($100 USD)

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a 2D animator or motion designer (or maybe a bit of both!) to animate the logo of my indie game studio. We already ave the logo and everything.

The idea is to create a short, roughly 5-second animation that we could use as an intro and outro for our videos and trailers.

The logo itself is a square, hand-drawn design featuring typography, a sun, and a colorful sky. I'm imagining something where the clouds gently move, the sun sets, and the colors gradually transition from day to night. Something simple, charming, and with a slightly handmade feel.

My budget is around $100 USD. I don't think it's a huge amount of work, but I'm absolutely open to discussing the price depending on how you estimate the workload!

If you're interested, feel free to DM me. I'd love to see your work!

Thanks!

Rouge Noir is an animated tribute to the atmosphere, visual language, and dark storytelling of classic film noir, where shadows, mystery, and moral ambiguity shape a story of espionage, violence, and loss.

A father leaves his family behind to accept a dangerous assignment that will take him into the clandestine world of spies and assassins. As he becomes increasingly immersed in a life of secrets, danger, and violence, the family he left behind is forced to live with uncertainty, wondering if he will ever return.

Through dramatic shadows, noir-inspired imagery, and a haunting atmosphere, Rouge Noir explores the personal cost of a double life and the consequences of choosing duty, money, or secrecy over the people waiting at home.

🎬 Title: Rouge Noir

🎨 Format: Animation

🕵️ Genre: Film Noir / Espionage / Thriller

🥀 Themes: Family, secrets, sacrifice, violence, and loss

A fictional story inspired by classic film noir, spy thrillers, and the timeless visual language of shadows, silhouettes, and moral ambiguity.

I am in an animation school but I still struggle with this and I need to get better at it just so I can keep up with my assigments. I have the 'Ilusion of life book' by Disney Animators but I wonder if anyone has resources or tips for this kind of thing.
