About Us:
(Who we are - the company, or the brand, the team, etc)

About the project:
We’re looking for motivated visual storytellers to put their own stamp on: INSERT NAME OF OUR WEB SERIES, a series centered around a group of sometimes overlooked but exceptional friends who encounter strange phenomena around their home town of Night Valley.
We’re looking to bring the energy of short form vertical TikTok and YouTube shorts content into the world of (still) short form 1920x1080 animations!
Each storyteller will be the creative lead on their own episode!


Responsibilities:
* Write short web animation story/scenarios (roughly 1-2 min shorts) that utilize our characters and locations and bring them to life on the page. We want to tell our stories quickly.
* Using provided character assets and visuals, bring stories to life on the screen
* Create custom assets as needed
* 2D animation/ After Effects animation to give characters expressions and movement (your own animation styles are welcome)
* Be creative and let your imagination run free. Our characters have defined backstories and motivations but it’s up to you to take them on an adventure.
