Motion Designer — Finish a Fully-Timed 5-Min Product Film, Bento Heavy /Editorial Style

OVERVIEW We have a finished, fully-timed animatic for a ~5 minute product film, and we're looking for a motion graphics animator to bring it to polished, final animation. This is not a from-scratch brief. The hard creative work is done: the voiceover is locked, and the visual structure — including the bento layouts — is already defined. Your job is to take that animatic and produce the finished, exported video. SEE THE QUALITY OF WHAT YOU'LL BE WORKING FROM "Animatic" means very different things to different people, so rather than leave it to the word, here is a short excerpt of the actual animatic you'll be receiving — just to illustrate its high quality and level of detail: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EHHBJ8jQ5TgOwva4aZ2ZWylAPrTvBEG5/view?usp=sharing As you'll see, it's already highly detailed. We're looking for an animator who can take work of this caliber and carry it through to finished animation. THE LOOK — BENTO-HEAVY The visual target is Anthropic's launch video for Claude Design: clean, editorial, modern, and bento-heavy — built around animated multi-tile "bento" layouts where several elements live and move together in a single composition. Our film uses that same bento-driven style throughout, so comfort with multi-tile bento animation is essential. Please watch the reference before bidding; matching that quality bar and the bento sensibility is the core of the job. Reference (PLEASE WATCH THIS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_LBECIQQqs THE TEST BENTO — all screening questions refer to this. Answers that don't engage with this spec's specific tiles and timings are declined. Here is the voice over script for scene 2: Welcome to LightSail— a Reading-Level Adaptation Engine, built with OpenAI to disrupt EdTech. It starts with V1, built and ready to deploy today: disruption one, K-12 — matching the rigor of the premium EdTech platforms at up to ninety percent less cost to districts, and surpassing them on pedagogy, with questions built on the latest science of reading and content that meets students where they live, in the TikTok world. The same engine can take a district's own scope and sequence and manufacture an entire every lesson to it — but that's a story for later. OpenAI's brand sits front-and-center in millions of classrooms, driving brand awareness, renewal, and revenue on every interaction. Not an engine anyone can swap out. And Ladder V2 extends the same engine into three more disruptions: two, Workforce — the learning-and-assessment layer for OpenAI's committed ten million certifications; three, community-college remediation; and four, CTE/TVET. Four disruptions, one engine — and the rest of this film shows V1, the one that's built and ready to deploy. / End of scene 2 WHAT YOU'LL BE WORKING FROM (provided up front) - Locked voiceover audio (final) - The fully-timed animatic (MP4) — pacing, transitions, and flow already established - The bento layout / scene map — which scenes group into which bento compositions - A feature/scene matrix describing what each beat shows We use Frame.io to communicate edits / revisions. WHAT WE NEED IN YOUR PROPOSAL - A fixed price for the finished, exported ~5 min video, revisions included - Your turnaround time - When you could start - 2-3 examples of your most relevant, bento-style work (see the screening questions) Because the animatic, and VO are already locked, this is a well-defined, de-risked engagement — you're animating to an approved blueprint, not designing the film from zero. We're ready to move quickly with the right person.
