ANIMATION PROJECT – MODULAR CHARACTER FACE I am looking for an animator to create a modular animation library for a simple motorcycle-helmet character face. I will provide the completed MASTER VECTOR CHARACTER ASSET, original character design/reference and a sample animation showing the general style and movement. The animation system consists of 3 independent layers: Eyes + Eyebrows Mouth Cheeks / Display The layers must remain separate so they can later be combined and controlled by software. The full list of required animations and individual offers is provided in the animation menu. Artists may choose individual jobs or groups of jobs. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS 24 FPS 1920 x 1080 Transparent PNG image sequences MP4 preview of every completed animation Editable source/project files Identical canvas, positioning, scale and alignment across all layers MASTER IDLE FACE Every animation must begin with 1 frame of the supplied MASTER IDLE FACE and ultimately return to the exact same MASTER IDLE FACE. This is essential so animations created by different artists can be combined seamlessly. IDLE animations must also loop seamlessly. TRANSITION FRAMES All non-viseme animations may use up to 48 additional frames for transition into and/or out of the animation. This is an allowance, not a requirement. The animator may use fewer frames if appropriate. VISEMES The mouth requires reusable A, E, I, O, U, M/B/P, F/V, TH, S/Z, K/G and L/R visemes. Each viseme must start from 1 frame of the MASTER IDLE FACE, perform the viseme animation, and finish on the identical MASTER IDLE FACE. No separate rapid talking, slow talking, happy talking or angry talking animations are required. Software will control the order, timing and playback speed. ARTISTIC FREEDOM The menu describes the desired result, not the exact animation method. During the active animation frames, the animator has creative freedom to achieve the best visual result. For example, a Heart animation could fade in, dissolve, pop, float, bounce, pulse, multiply or use another suitable technique. Eyebrows may be rotated, reshaped or adjusted if that creates a better expression. Mouth shapes may also be altered during active frames where appropriate. Cheek/display reactions have particularly broad artistic freedom. The requested result is what matters; how that result is achieved is up to the animator. The first and final MASTER IDLE FACE frames must remain consistent. MOUTH STYLE The mouth is intentionally minimalist and robotic. The supplied design uses a single orange curve as the resting mouth/lips. Do not add teeth, tongue, throat, inner-mouth detail or conventional human/cartoon mouth anatomy. Mouth movement should remain stylised and non-human. Happy or playful movement can be curved and exaggerated, while angry movement should feel sharper, straighter and more robotic. The mouth may be reshaped during active frames when needed to achieve the best expression, but must return to the MASTER IDLE FACE position. PROJECT PURPOSE This is a reusable animation asset library, not a collection of finished character videos. The goal is to create clean, professional animation components that can be mixed together in software to produce many different expressions, reactions and talking sequences. The animator only needs to create the individual assets listed in the supplied menu. DELIVERY For every completed animation: PNG image sequence MP4 preview Editable source/project file Please keep files clearly organised by Eyes + Eyebrows, Mouth, Visemes and Cheeks / Display. BUDGET Maximum project budget: $120 AUD. Individual prices are provided in the animation menu. Where two prices are shown, they represent a basic and more elaborate/fancy result. DEADLINE If a job is accepted, the agreed animation work must be completed and delivered within 7 days of acceptance. Please apply only if you are comfortable creating clean, simple, expressive animation assets and providing organized production files.

The main risk here is ending up with layers that drift, timing that does not match, or mouth shapes that stop feeling consistent once they are mixed in software. I’ll keep every animation anchored to the same MASTER IDLE FACE and build it so the face reads cleanly frame to frame. I’ll animate the three independent layers separately, then line them back up at 24 FPS in 1920 x 1080 with transparent PNG sequences, an MP4 preview for each piece, and editable source files. The mouth will stay minimalist and robotic, with the single orange curve evolving into clean A, E, I, O, U and other visemes without adding human anatomy. Eyes, brows, and cheek reactions will keep the exact alignment and return to the idle pose without slipping.

Creating a modular animation library presents a unique challenge. If animations aren’t consistent, merging them later could lead to a jarring experience. Imagine the frustration if the animations don’t align, causing confusion in the final product. That could impact user engagement and lead to costly revisions. I’d start with the MASTER IDLE FACE, ensuring every animation loops back seamlessly to it. This keeps the transitions smooth and avoids mismatched frames. Each layer will be crafted to maintain the integrity of your minimalist mouth style, while giving me room for creative expression in the cheeks and eyebrows. I’ve worked on similar projects before, focusing on clean, expressive animations, and revisions are part of my process to ensure everything aligns perfectly. What’s the deadline for the first batch of animations? Are there specific assets you want prioritized?

Hi, I understand this is not a standard character-animation job—it is a modular animation library where consistency, alignment, and clean transitions are critical because Eyes/Eyebrows, Mouth, and Cheeks/Display will later be combined programmatically. I can work directly from your MASTER VECTOR CHARACTER ASSET and keep every animation locked to the same 1920×1080 canvas, position, scale, and 24 FPS timing. I’ll make sure: • Every animation begins and ends on the exact MASTER IDLE FACE • Idle animations loop seamlessly • Eyes, mouth, and cheek/display layers remain fully independent • All 11 visemes are reusable and return precisely to idle • Mouth animation stays minimalist, robotic, and consistent with the supplied orange-curve design • Transparent PNG sequences are clean and consistently named • Each animation includes an MP4 preview and editable source file • Files are organised into Eyes + Eyebrows, Mouth, Visemes, and Cheeks / Display folders I’m comfortable with vector-based character animation, facial expressions, lip-sync/viseme systems, looping animation, and production-ready asset organisation. I can work within the 7-day deadline and follow your animation menu closely while still adding creative polish where appropriate. Ready to review the master asset, reference animation, and animation menu.
