If you want to see the exact style, timing, and polish we’re aiming for, check out the animated panels in Beyond the Vale and Green Gang — these series set the benchmark for the type of subtle motion, FX, and looped animation we want to extend to our upcoming titles.

- Implement clean loops, subtle effects, and motion accents based on provided art

- Maintain consistent style and quality across multiple episodes
- Deliver on tight deadlines (48–72 hr turnaround is common)
QUALIFICATIONS
- A portfolio demonstrating strong GIF or motion animation work
- Experience in motion graphics, 2D animation, or VFX
- Proficiency with AE, Clip Studio, Procreate, or similar tools
- Strong sense of timing, staging, and visual storytelling
- Ability to follow art direction and match existing styles
- Fast, reliable communicator
- Available for short-term contract work starting ASAP
NICE TO HAVE
