●     Develop transformation states, supernatural variations and other special character or monster designs where required.

●     Design characters that remain practical for Toon Boom Harmony rigs and animation.

Please include character designs, model sheets, expressive poses and, where possible, monster or creature work.

 Contract Information

The initial contract is for a short-form digital animated series. There may be an opportunity for successful team members to continue onto the planned long-form series based on the same property, depending on production requirements, performance and availability.

Rate: $1,000-$1,200 per week based on a 40-hour work week. The final rate will be determined based on experience, skills and qualifications.
