Summary

Hi there, We’re looking for a talented animator to join our team as we build an original animated series for YouTube. We need someone with strong 3D animation experience who is also comfortable working with or adapting to 2D animation when needed. We care more about your portfolio, taste, creativity, and execution than formal credentials. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who wants to help build a real animated world with original IP characters, lore, mystery, comedy, and creepy/cute storytelling. We’re a small team, so we’re looking for someone resourceful, creative, and able to bring ideas to life without needing constant hand-holding. You should understand younger audience culture, internet humor, pacing, and what makes animated content engaging on YouTube. You should also be comfortable using AI tools and any other resources that help create the best final result. The level of ambition we’re aiming for is inspired by projects like - GLITCH Productions/ Spindle Horse Toons References: https://www.youtube.com/@GLITCH/videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zlmswo0S0e0&t=1444s To apply, please include: 1. Your 3D animation portfolio 2. Tools/software you use 3. A short note on why this project interests you Please include “Hello 123” somewhere in your proposal so we know you read the full post. We’re really excited to see your work and connect with animators who are passionate about building something original with us! Best, Alex
