Summary

# Animation Brief — Ledge Climbing and Movement Set ## Project Overview I'm developing a commercial ledge detection and navigation for Unity, to be sold on the Unity Asset Store. I need a set of original, hand-keyed or motion-captured animations for core traversal mechanics. **Important — IP requirement:** All animations must be 100% original work created specifically for this project. No retargeted, edited, or derivative content from Mixamo, stock mocap libraries, or any other third-party animation source. This project requires full commercial redistribution rights (see "Ownership & Licensing" below), which rules out any animation sourced or adapted from existing libraries. ## Animation List Please refer to this page for braced vs free explaination : https://docs.upstairs.studio/docs/examples | # | Animation Name | Description | |---|---|---| | 1 | Land on ledge (braced and free) | 2 | Idle on ledge (braced and free) | 3 | Climb the ledge (braced and free) [with root motion option] | 4 | Move to left and right (braced and free) | 5 | Drop from ledge (braced and free) | 6 | Hop up on ledge (braced only) [with root motion option] | 7 | Jump Away from ledge (braced only) [with root motion option] | 8 | on the ground idle animation | 9 | on the ground walk/run animation | 10 | jump flow (start, airborne, land) ## Technical Specifications - **Target engine:** Unity - **Frame rate:** 30 fps - **Root motion:** I would like a quota for only the specified animations with root motion and all animations with root motion - **Reference footage:** https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1sQ_sacHWG2IAxlLRIbaRb5AduWjJkQgu ## Ownership & Licensing - All animations delivered under this agreement are **work-for-hire**. Full copyright and all redistribution rights transfer to me upon final payment. - The animator retains no rights to reuse, resell, or redistribute the delivered animations, in whole or in part, after final payment. - The animator confirms the delivered work is original and does not incorporate any third-party copyrighted or licensed content (including Mixamo, stock mocap, or other animators' prior client work) without my prior written approval.
