Your skills and experience

We’re looking for an all-round motion designer, someone who is as comfortable animating characters as they are transitions.

You will have a solid approach to developing your ideas, from initial concept, to storyboarding, to animatic, to final production and you will understand the important role sound plays in your work. As well as the above, we’re looking for the following skills:
