Looking for a 2D Animator: 10 animations (20–25 seconds each) – 100% HAND-CRAFTED (NO AI ALLOWED)
Project Description:
I am looking for a talented and reliable freelancer to create a series of 10 short animations (20–25 seconds each).
Key Requirement – ​​NO AI:
The entire process must be carried out exclusively by hand. I do not accept the use of generative artificial intelligence (Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Runway, etc.)—not for character design, backgrounds, or the animation itself (including frame interpolation). I am seeking traditional craftsmanship and the unique style that only a human hand can provide.
How we will work together (step-by-step):
1. Reference Image: I will provide you with a base image.
2. Character Design & Storyboard: Based on the image, you will illustrate/draw the character (digitally or using traditional media) and prepare a storyboard. You will then submit it to me for approval.
3. Script & Animation: Once the storyboard is approved, I will send you the full script, and you will proceed to create the animation (produced frame-by-frame or using classic 2D animation techniques).
Requirements:
• A portfolio demonstrating strong drawing and 2D animation skills (samples of different styles are welcome).
• Punctuality and good communication.
• Full transparency regarding the process (I may request access to working files or layers to verify that the work is being created by hand).
