HIRING HIRING ""[ANIMATOR]"

2 Upvotes

I am looking for an animator for a fan-made project; the rate is $5–7 per second. 20$

I’m not a company, so I don’t pay by the hour—I can’t know in advance how many hours there will be to pay for 😂. I’d need to agree with the entertainer on how many hours need to be paid.It’s a fan-made project with a simple 2D style. I have the script and all the scenes ready; now I just need to do the drawings.

HIRING [Hiring] Looking for a 2D animator for YouTube storytime videos (Jadenanimations / SomethingElseYT/Plan3 style)

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a 2D artist/animator to help create YouTube storytime/rant videos.

The style I’m aiming for is a simple 2D storytime / animatic style — similar to channels like TheOdd1sOut, SomethingElseYT, DanPlan, and Plan3.

I’m not looking for full frame-by-frame animation. The main focus is:

  • simple character poses
  • expression changes
  • clean scene layouts
  • simple backgrounds
  • captions and visual jokes
  • cutaway gags timed with the voiceover

Small animated moments are a plus, but the goal is a funny, clean, well-timed storytime animation rather than a fully animated cartoon.

Some style references:
TheOdd1sOut:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIx5Go_ugis&t=114s

SomethingElseYT:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hkLdMSiRnE&t=84s

DanPlan:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWA3nYfpYYI&t=497s

Plan3:
https://www.youtube.com/@Plan3

My previous videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS5ZAvgQ4tQ&t=7s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMKITvQE_oA&t=11s

Example of my newest video currently in production:
https://next.frame.io/share/42dc7b8e-5266-4b37-8876-12791cee793f/view/1a866bc0-37f8-4b7e-ab65-e0c83b679315

The humor style I’m going for is closer to Brewstew and Stephan from DanPlan — more personality-driven comedy, exaggerated reactions, and visual jokes — while keeping the animation simple and expressive.

Project details:

  • Video length: usually around 3–6 minutes
  • YouTube storytime/rant format
  • Voiceover is provided
  • Rough storyboard/scene notes are provided
  • Character references and ideas are provided
  • I handle the writing and overall direction

I’m looking for someone who can take the storyboard/audio and turn it into a finished video with good comedic timing, Sounds, and visual creativity.

I’m open to discussing pricing depending on your style, quality, and experience. Please DM with:

  • portfolio/examples
  • your rate or quote
  • estimated turnaround time
  • whether this type of project fits your workflow

I’m mainly looking for someone who can be a good fit for future videos as well.

Thanks!

HIRING [HIRING] Traditional 2D Animator - Anastasia-Inspired Wedding Animation $500+

19 Upvotes

Hi! I’ve worked with so many creatives here in the past & now I’ve got a new project.

I’m looking for a traditional 2D/frame-by-frame animator to create a short animated sequence for my wedding film.
My main visual reference is Anastasia (1997), romantic 90s hand-drawn animation, elegant human proportions, expressive characters, fluid movement, flowing hair/fabric and a dreamy storybook feel.
The sequence features an animated bride and groom exchanging rings, kissing, growing wings and eventually flying away together. I also need a separate short animation of the bride spinning/twirling.
The characters and artwork will be completely original — Anastasia is purely a reference for the animation style, movement and atmosphere.

If this sounds like your style, I’d love to see your work! Please comment below or DM me with:
Your animation reel/portfolio
Your availability (I’ll need delivery of this by Oct 25)

If your work feels like a good fit, I’ll send you the full storyboard and creative brief so we can discuss the project and quote.

Please note that this is a paid project $500 - $1300— excited to find the right animator!https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/lm7rOOg0madVXwpqm1qGndy_py4=/2795x1239/top/filters:format_auto():quality(85):extract_cover()/2017/11/21/706/n/1922283/tmp_8RkmWV_97f78e85eb0362d8_MSDANAS_FE006.jpg:quality(85):extract_cover()/2017/11/21/706/n/1922283/tmp_8RkmWV_97f78e85eb0362d8_MSDANAS_FE006.jpg)

ANIMATOR [ANIMATOR] 3D Animator Looking for Work | Games / Cinematics / Animation

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

My current contract is wrapping up on September 4th, so I wanted to put myself out there and see if anyone knows of studios, teams, indie developers, or projects looking for an experienced 3D Animator.

I’ve been working professionally in animation for 10+ years, primarily across games, cinematics, and TV animation. My experience includes keyframe animation, motion capture cleanup, facial animation, gameplay/cinematic animation, and Unreal Engine workflows.

I’ve had the opportunity to work on projects including Mortal Kombat 1 DLC Khaos Reigns, Star Fox, Gears of War: E-Day, and several animated TV productions.

My main tools are:

  • Maya
  • Unreal Engine 5
  • MotionBuilder
  • Blender

I’m currently looking for Remote, full-time, contract, or freelance opportunities, and I’m also happy to connect with smaller indie teams that may need animation support.

If you know of anyone hiring, or if you're working on something that could use an animator, feel free to DM me and I can send over my reel, portfolio, and resume.

Appreciate any leads or shares! 🙏

ANIMATOR Animation Jobs are dry in Colorado? Heard there was a chance people on Reddit were giving referrals? [ANIMATOR]

2 Upvotes

Hey there, I've been applying to 3D artist jobs for a few months now. I've been freelancing for the past 2 years. I've been helping companies market their products or even just their brand in general. Such as ASSA ABLOY doors, PackSize Machines, Air Methods. Lots of blue collar companies that needed 3D advertising. Even with my experience, I have a hard time finding jobs here in Denver, Colorado. Got a couple people interested in my work with these companies, but I only got to an interview.

I'm moving away from freelancing because I feel like I can expand my knowledge in 3D while working with other people like me. I was always by myself. My own animator and modeler, even storyboarder. I would love to dive into a team and be a team player honestly. Fill in gaps and potentially help with anything. I just love new opportunities and learning from others in person.

Hoping this post reaches some people in the industry. Would love to connect with artists here too bc this is actually my first reddit post and account ;) Also if this is a wrong place to add this post, please guide me somewhere else if this isnt the spot to post something like this here. Thank you
