Create Viral Hybrid Cartoon Universe

I’m building an entirely new cartoon world and need a versatile animator who can move comfortably between 2D charm and 3D depth while taking advantage of AI for quicker ideation.

The goal is a cast of unforgettable characters—humanoids, witty animals, and whimsical fantasy creatures—set in a universe that hops effortlessly from adventure to comedy with a sprinkle of high-fantasy wonder. Every asset must feel fresh, distinctive, and ready for long-term brand potential.

Here’s how I picture the first milestone:

• Character development: rough sketches through polished model sheets and turnarounds.
• Proof-of-concept clip: a 30–60 second sequence that blends 2D and 3D seamlessly.
• Mini style guide: colour palette, typography, and environment notes so the visual rules are clear from day one.

Acceptance criteria
– All artwork is 100 % original and cleared for copyright.
– Source files (PSD/AI/BLEND or equivalent) plus a high-resolution H.264 render are delivered.
– Animation shows a convincing fusion of 2D and 3D techniques without stylistic clashes.

My budget for the pilot is lean, so I value clever asset reuse and pipeline efficiency—Blender with Grease Pencil, Toon Boom Harmony, Adobe Animate, Unreal, or any workflow you trust that keeps costs down while quality stays high.

If this sounds like your kind of creative playground, send a short note describing a past project where you merged 2D and 3D and include a link to your most relevant reel. Let’s craft the next viral cartoon universe together.
