We need an experienced motion designer to pick up an animated explainer video partway through production and carry it to completion.
The project: A 14-chapter, 15–18 minute video for a UK education technology client, blending an animated learner-journey narrative with real screen-recorded product demos. It's a high-stakes piece supporting a major tender bid, so the bar for polish and consistency is high.
Where it stands: Script locked, VO recorded and approved, frame templates (headline, image, product, screen-recording) signed off, and chapters 1–6 already built and in client feedback. We need someone to take chapters 7–14 through to final delivery.
This is an independent role, not a shot-by-shot brief. You'll work from the existing templates, motion style, and script to work out the visual logic yourself — deciding pacing and treatment for the remaining chapters, exercising judgement on trimming supplied screen recordings to fit the locked script, and flagging risks early rather than waiting for direction. Our Creative Director is available for context, not day-to-day sign-off on every chapter.
What we need from you:
Strong 2D/motion graphics skills and a portfolio showing narrative + UI/product-demo style animation
Ability to work independently from reference material with minimal hand-holding
Fast turnaround across batches of roughly 4 chapters at a time
Comfortable with same-day feedback windows and a fixed delivery date
Timeline: Immediate start, working across batches with a view for first complete draft Tueaday Next week.
