A singer-songwriter is seeking a talented freelance animator to create a 2D animated music video for an upcoming single release. The track features a moody, jazz-rock atmosphere reminiscent of early Coldplay and Radiohead’s piano-driven works, blending melancholy with expressive musicality. The project aims to visually capture the emotional depth and unique style of the song, providing a compelling visual narrative that complements the music. This is an opportunity to collaborate on a personal artistic project and bring a debut LP track to life through animation.

Deliverables

Develop a complete 2D animated music video for a single track, aligning visuals with the song’s mood and narrative. Collaborate closely with the artist to understand the song’s themes, atmosphere, and desired visual style. Create storyboards, animatics, and final animation sequences that reflect the emotional tone of the music. Deliver high-quality video files suitable for online release and promotional use. Incorporate feedback and revisions as needed to achieve the desired artistic vision.

Requirements

Proven experience in 2D animation, with a strong portfolio showcasing music video or narrative animation work. Ability to interpret and visually represent musical moods, especially melancholy and atmospheric styles. Proficiency in industry-standard animation software (e.g., Adobe After Effects, Toon Boom, or similar). Strong storytelling skills and attention to visual detail. Excellent communication and collaboration abilities, with openness to feedback. Ability to work independently and meet agreed-upon deadlines. Availability for remote collaboration; location flexible.
