3D Product Animator — Two Short Installation Animations for Amazon & Website (Security Hardware)

We manufacture anti-theft security products for buildings and electrical infrastructure (locking covers, theft-proof downspout nozzles). We're looking for a product animator to create two short animations, with more work to follow if these go well. The Two Animations (20–30 seconds each) 1. Downspout Nozzle Installation — A clean, step-by-step animation of our plastic downspout nozzle being installed on a building: measure and cut the pipe, caulk the wall opening, solvent weld the nozzle, anchor the trim ring. The product installs in under 10 minutes and the animation should make it look that easy. 2. Locking Cover Swap — A standard light pole hand hole cover being removed (showing how easily thieves get in), then replaced with our locking cover that secures the access point. Simple story: vulnerable before, protected after. Where They'll Run Amazon product listing video and our website. The Amazon version must meet Amazon's video requirements: 16:9 at 1920x1080, no pricing, promo claims, or external links in the video. Most viewers watch muted, so any text overlays must carry the story without sound. Deliverables Per Animation -Main version: 16:9, 1920x1080 MP4 -Square 1:1 cut for placements that crop -Text overlays readable on mute -Source/project files included in the price What We Provide -Product photos from multiple angles -CAD files may be available — quote both with and without -Brand kit: logo, colors, fonts -Approved copy for text overlays -Fast answers — you'll work directly with the owner Budget & Future Work Fixed price per animation — quote each separately. If these two go well, we have a dozen more products across our catalog that will need the same treatment, so we're looking for someone who wants a pipeline, not a one-off. TO APPLY — Please Answer: 1. Share 2–3 examples of product or mechanical animations you've personally created (not team/agency reels). Industrial or hardware products are a big plus. 2. For our two animations, would you recommend 2D motion graphics or 3D? Why? 3. Can you work from CAD files (STEP format)? If we can't provide CAD, how would you handle modeling the products, and how does that affect price? 4. Your fixed price for each animation and expected turnaround time. 5. Confirm that source/project files are included in your price. Start your proposal with the words "Product Animator" so we know you've read the full posting.
