Motion Graphics Animator for Bento Animation
Worldwide
Graphics Animator — bring a locked, fully-timed animatic to finished bento animation (~3:50) OVERVIEW We have a finished, fully-timed animatic for a ~3 minute 50 second 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, the animatic is timed to the VO, 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/1uMWrq1Q5WfuBcNX1K1qfbJUwOtpnMm65/view?usp=sharing As you'll see, it's already highly detailed and tightly timed. 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 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 WHAT WE NEED IN YOUR PROPOSAL - A fixed price for the finished, exported ~3:50 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, timing, 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.
