Motion Graphics Animator for Cinematic Lyric Videos

We're looking for a talented After Effects motion designer to animate a series of 8 lyric videos for a collection of spiritually uplifting, Islamically themed songs. Important: The artwork and background scenes have already been created. We are not looking for an illustrator or graphic designer. Your role is to bring the existing visuals to life by animating the scenes and integrating the lyrics in a cinematic, emotionally engaging way. What You'll Be Doing Animate lyrics in perfect sync with each song. Design elegant, readable typography that complements the visuals. Add subtle motion to the existing artwork (camera movement, parallax, lighting, particles, atmosphere, etc.) where appropriate. Create a polished, cinematic feel throughout each video. Work collaboratively and incorporate feedback. Assets We'll Provide High-resolution artwork for every scene Final audio tracks Complete lyric sheets Creative direction and visual references Ideal Candidate Strong proficiency in Adobe After Effects Experience creating high-quality lyric videos Excellent sense of timing, typography, and pacing Able to produce tasteful, cinematic motion graphics—not overly flashy or distracting Strong communication skills and attention to detail Project Style These songs have an uplifting, reflective, and spiritually inspired Islamic theme. The visual style is soft, cinematic, and artistic, with a watercolor-inspired aesthetic. The lyric animation should enhance the emotional impact of the music while remaining elegant and easy to read.
