About the role

Join a creative project focused on producing engaging, gentle, and visually appealing 2D animation for children’s nursery rhyme videos. The role centers on crafting smooth, simple, and loopable animations that maintain a consistent, minimal style across multiple episodes. Animations should be calm, readable, and suitable for young audiences, with a focus on clean motion, subtle polish, and loop-friendly sequences. You will work with provided backgrounds and character assets to bring charming, kid-safe stories to life, supporting a long-term production pipeline with repeatable outputs.

Deliverables

  • Final video exports in 1920×1080 (YouTube HD), 25/30fps
  • Seamless loop animations for characters and backgrounds as required
  • Audio-synced animation where relevant (beats, lyric timing, mouth flaps if requested)
  • Consistent export settings and clean delivery across episodes

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience in 2D animation, preferably for children’s content
  • Strong sense of timing, easing, and appealing motion suitable for young audiences
  • Ability to create smooth, simple character and background loops (idle, walk cycles, gentle parallax, etc.)
  • Proficiency with rig animation and/or frame-by-frame techniques as appropriate
  • Skilled in maintaining a consistent visual style across multiple videos
  • Excellent communication skills and responsiveness to feedback
  • Reliable delivery and ability to meet deadlines
  • Comfortable working with provided assets (PNG layers or source files)
  • Portfolio showcasing relevant animation work, especially smooth loop examples
  • Familiarity with clean export workflows and consistent settings
  • Availability for ongoing, repeatable production work
  • Bonus: Experience with mouth flap (lip sync), basic compositing (shadows, highlights), and template-based production for efficiency
