• Design and animate motion for launch videos, commercials, product explainers, social content, and brand campaigns
• Create motion work from concept through final delivery, spanning 2D, UI, typography, compositing, and edit-driven animation
• Translate creative direction and storyboards into motion that matches the intended tone, pacing, and feel
• Collaborate with producers, editors, designers, and directors to bring concepts to life
• Iterate quickly based on feedback from creative leads and clients, maintaining the quality of the craft
• Maintain speed and quality while supporting multiple projects and deadlines
• Elevate work beyond the expected by refining for strong taste, detail, and exceptional results

What you bring

• 3 to 5 years of experience as a motion designer, ideally from a studio, agency, or in-house creative team
• A strong reel showing range across product and UI motion, brand work, and edit-driven animation
• Expertise in After Effects, with comfort working in Figma and DaVinci Resolve
• Strong fundamentals in type, layout, color, composition, and timing
• A real point of view on motion, including easing, transitions, and restraint, plus the ability to explain your decisions
• Comfort taking feedback and iterating quickly without losing momentum
• Experience working in studio, agency, or fast-moving startup environments

Tools you’ll use

• After Effects
• Figma
• DaVinci Resolve

In this freelance role, you may work on a polished hero sequence for a product launch or a fast-turn social cutdown, and sometimes both within the same week. If you enjoy collaborating in a fast-moving studio setting and refining motion until it feels exceptional, this project-based opportunity may be a strong fit.
