AI Video Animator for Narrative Episode

We are seeking a talented AI video creator to produce a 10-minute cinematic narrative episode using commercial-tier tools like Higgsfield and Seedance 2.0. This is a paid pilot/episode 1 for a larger 97-minute feature project. We are offering a flat project rate of $500 – $700 total for this initial 10-minute milestone, which will be structured via Upwork Milestones (paid out in stages based on script/style frames, a 5-minute rough draft, and final delivery). The ideal freelancer already owns their own commercial-tier software subscriptions and can manage high-volume rendering efficiently within this budget. If this first episode is successful, we want to establish a long-term partnership to complete the remaining 87 minutes of the movie with a scaled budget.
