Worldwide

Summary

We need an animator to create Instagram reels. The brand is Richard Jackov, a male sexual health focused brand that aims to improve education and Mens health around sex. The mission is to eliminate male sexual shame. We produce content in a humorous approachable way while simultaneously imparting scientifically vetted health information. Please check out our instagram page to determine if you can animate this style @RichardJackov We produce a recurring animated social media series with a consistent flat cel-shaded art style (think Archer FX / Bojack Horseman: bold outlines, flat color, muted retro palette). We handle all scripting, storyboarding, and reference stills. You animate. What we provide per episode: 1. Locked storyboard (frame-by-frame shot list) 2. Script 3. We can also provide reference stills/frames for every character/scene (consistent character models, no design work needed) Voiceover audio (or script + timing if VO comes after) What we need from you: Animate to the storyboard in a simple, limited-animation style (not full frame-by-frame). Lip sync, basic gesture/body movement, camera moves as specified Match our established character models exactly Deliver 15 to 60 (average around 40-45) second episodes, vertical format (9:16) Rigged/reusable character setup preferred (After Effects + puppet rigging, Toon Boom, or similar) since characters recur across every episode Volume: We're looking for a long-term partner who can handle 30 to 50 short episodes per month at consistent quality and turnaround. Please quote per-episode or per-minute rate, and your realistic monthly capacity. To apply, include: Portfolio samples in a similar flat/limited animation style Your rigging approach for a recurring character across many episodes Per-minute or per-episode rate, and turnaround time per episode Monthly capacity (how many 15 to 45 second episodes per month you could realistically deliver) We'll start with a single paid test episode before committing to volume.
