2D Animator / Motion Designer (Storyboard + Animation + Editing)

Title: 2D Animator / Motion Designer (Storyboard + Animation + Editing)
Type: Contractor
Location: Remote
Pay: 1200/Month (Plus bonus per project completed)

About the Role

We’re looking for a highly skilled 2D Animator who can take a script and voiceover and bring it to life—from concept to final video.
This is not a basic video editing role. We’re looking for a creative storyteller and animator who can storyboard, design, animate, and edit with minimal direction, using provided brand guidelines, color palettes, and assets.

If you’re simply cutting clips together or relying on templates—this isn’t for you.
If you’re someone who loves designing motion graphics, visual storytelling, and crafting smooth, high-quality animations that align with a brand’s voice—then you’ll love this role.

What You’ll Do

Translate a provided script and voiceover into a visually engaging storyboard.

Create original 2D animations and motion graphics that bring ideas and messages to life.

Handle the full production process—from concept design, storyboarding, animation, and timing to editing the final cut.

Maintain brand consistency across colors, typography, pacing, and style.

Integrate sound, timing, and pacing seamlessly with voiceovers and music.

Deliver polished, ready-to-publish videos with little to no revision required.

You’re a Great Fit If You:

Are a true animator (not just an editor)—you know After Effects, Illustrator, and motion design principles inside and out.

Can think visually—you understand story, pacing, and how to guide a viewer’s attention.

Have a strong eye for composition, typography, and visual rhythm.

Can take a concept and run with it independently—no hand-holding.

Have a portfolio that shows clean, professional 2D animation work (explainers, brand stories, kinetic text, etc.).

Thrive on deadlines and can produce high-quality work quickly and efficiently.

Requirements

3+ years of experience in 2D motion design / animation.

Advanced proficiency in After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and related tools.

Proven experience creating storyboards and full-motion explainer or brand videos.

Strong communication skills and the ability to take a brief and turn it into visual gold.

Nice-to-Haves

Experience working with B2B or corporate brands.

Ability to design simple visual assets when needed.

Familiarity with AI-assisted animation or workflow tools (optional).
