Seeking Animator for Fantasy-Inspired Project

Bring a Dramatic Scene to Life with Animation

I’m looking for a talented animator to bring a captivating sequence to life. This project involves adding a magical animated element to an existing still image. Imagine a large backdrop featuring this image. An actor, armed with a sword, will be positioned in front of this backdrop. The animation will unfold over approximately 30 to 40 seconds.

The Vision: Sword Meets Magic

The animation should feature the actor gracefully swinging his sword across the image, targeting specific sections of thorns or vines. As the sword appears to make contact, a touch of magic ensues!

The vine should react in a visually stunning way, transforming with a touch of magic — think sparkly, shimmering Disney magic.

“The vines will react in a magical way and then disappear… This is to be magic and magic glitter and sparkles to happen when it looks like the actor has hit the thorns,” I said.

This enchanting reaction should happen four times across the image, starting on the right side and progressing to the left. The end goal is to leave only the red color and the castle visible in the image.

Important Considerations

• Status: Open
• Prize: £75

It’s important to emphasize that the animation should seamlessly integrate with the actor’s movement. The action on screen will be synchronized – the actor is interacting with the animation, not vice versa.

I will be providing you with a high-resolution image soon.
