What is a Stop Motion job?

A Stop Motion job involves creating animation by capturing individual frames of physically manipulated objects, such as puppets, clay figures, or paper cutouts, and then playing them in sequence to create movement. Professionals in this field work in roles like animators, model makers, or directors, often using specialized cameras, lighting, and editing software. These jobs can be found in film, television, advertising, and social media content creation. Attention to detail, patience, and creativity are essential skills for success in stop motion animation.

What are some common challenges faced by Stop Motion Animators during production?

Stop Motion Animators frequently encounter challenges such as maintaining character consistency frame-to-frame, managing time-consuming manual tasks, and troubleshooting technical difficulties with lighting or camera setups. The role often requires long hours of focused work and adaptability when encountering unforeseen issues like set pieces shifting or models breaking. Effective communication with directors, model makers, and other team members is crucial to navigate and resolve these challenges efficiently. Over time, animators gain strategies to streamline workflows and hone problem-solving skills, making each project more manageable and rewarding.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Stop Motion position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a Stop Motion Animator role, you need a strong background in animation principles, meticulous attention to detail, and proficiency in design or animation software, often supported by a degree in animation, film, or a related field. Familiarity with industry-standard tools such as Dragonframe, Adobe Creative Suite, and camera equipment is highly valued. Creativity, patience, and effective teamwork are essential soft skills for managing the iterative and collaborative nature of stop motion projects. These skills ensure the animator can produce high-quality, expressive animations within tight deadlines and collaborative production environments.

Actual compensation offers within this range will depend on experience and other relevant business or organizational factors.

At Steve & Kate's, we put radical trust in kids so that they learn to trust themselves. Campers choose minute-to-minute how to spend their time because making decisions today helps to build the self-confidence they’ll need to wrangle unknowns tomorrow. We value empowering our staff to be their whole authentic selves because everyone in our community needs to feel included!  Sound like something you can get behind? If so, we're looking for team members who are motivated babysitters, teachers, coaches, students, athletes, artists, and anyone ready to play hard and be goofy. As a Steve & Kate’s staff member, you’ll sharpen your inherent leadership skills, learn some new ones, and collaborate with interesting people, all while immersing yourself in creativity and play.

Job Responsibilities:

Staff members will be responsible for facilitating activities, making connections, and monitoring safety and wellness.  Some staff members will create and/or oversee activity spaces in which campers will self-select activities, while other staff will work in rotating support roles throughout camp.  The best way to find out what your specific responsibilities would be is to speak with your local director, but activities include sewing, stop-motion animation, maker space, performing arts, arts and crafts, lounging, recreation, and so much more!

Additional Responsibilities:

  • Actively supervising campers
  • Maintaining an organized and approachable activity space
  • Ensure compliance with Camp Policies
  • Reporting & Recording details of notable concerns or incidents, and of injuries to campers, other staff members, or self
  • Keeping track and being aware of camper allergies and dietary restrictions
  • adding daily updates and photos to campers’ profiles

How do you know if you’re the right candidate? 

  • Does the idea of guiding kids while they make decisions for themselves excite you?
  • Are you calm under pressure and able to calm those around you?
  • Are you comfortable leading groups of kids on your own while still collaborating with a team?
  • Do you have the stamina to keep up (literally) with 4-12 year old’s bursting with energy and creative potential? And, can you bench press a kindergartener (just kidding -- can you lift up to 40lbs)?
  • Are you passionate about sharing your knowledge & learning something new (even if a third grade is doing the teaching)? 

Job Requirements:

  • At least 18 years of age 
  • Minimum of 2 months experience working with camp–age children, with 1 year preferred, in either a professional, personal or volunteer setting. 
  • First Aid & CPR certified prior to Day 1 of Camp (some locations may require additional certifications)

This position requires the employee to comply with all applicable federal, state, local, Steve & Kate's Camp, Bright Horizons’, and client site requirements concerning immunizations, employment physical/screening, and health and safety training. If hired, you will work in person in a schooled-aged camp setting to provide supervision, care, program delivery, and services per Steve & Kate's Camp and Bright Horizons’ policies, procedures and guidance, in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations, and in a manner that will ensure the safety of children in Steve & Kate's Camp's care and the employee. 
Steve & Kate's Camp and Bright Horizons comply with all laws that require reasonable accommodations for qualifying disabilities and/or pregnancy-related limitations. The full set of physical requirements for this role are as follows:
