Skilled 2D Illustrator / Character designer - To work with our studio on various quality business explainers

Our UK animation studio (which has been going since 2013), is looking for a skilled freelance illustrator to work with for various upcoming projects.

Software: Adobe Suite: Adobe Illustrator / Photoshop / After Effects

The typical job role would involve designing style frames for animations to complement storyboard development. Plus you would also be designing 2D assets to use within the animation. (Environments, assets, iconography, characters).

Familiarity with the animation process is expected, as is the ability to design with the wider production process in mind. i.e. creating components of illustrated assets on separate layers that may need animating. Or characters designed for rigging with a tool like DUIK inside of Adobe After Effects.

BONUS SKILLS:

If you have experience storyboarding, animating in After Effects. Or some 3D skills. That would all be useful to wider job roles at our studio. Predominantly though, we're looking for a modern illustrator with a great design eye and appreciation of recent design trends and keen to push the creative envelope (a little bit).

Salary, we'd expect to pay in the region of £250 to £350.
