"Queen and Her Trouble," authored by Daniel Heath Yielding, is a narrative set against the backdrop of economic hardship in the hills of Alabama, focusing on the life of Danny, an eleven-year-old boy, and his family. The story explores themes of resilience, family bonds, and personal growth.

Responsibilities:
Deeply engage with the source material to capture the setting, character dynamics, and themes.
Design and animate characters and environments that authentically reflect the book’s tone.
Develop a storyboard for the trailer that effectively communicates the story's suspense, drama, and character development.
Produce a polished animated trailer, including voice-over narration, sound design, and music.
Ensure the final torch meets Angel Studios' submission criteria.
Qualifications:
Strong portfolio in 3D animation, character design, and environmental storytelling.
Proficiency in animation software (e.g., Blender, Maya).
Excellent communication skills for a close collaboration with the author.
Creative and detail-oriented with a passion for literary adaptations.
Preference will be given to candidates with experience or a strong familiarity with Angel Studios, including an understanding of their content, storytelling preferences, and submission guidelines. If you have relevant experience or knowledge, please highlight this in your application.

Employment Type: Freelance/Contract
Compensation: Competitive, project-based. Include your rate and estimated timeline.
I would love a brief introduction and your motivation for the project.

Your project rate, timeline, and any preliminary ideas for the adaptation.
Specifically mention any experience with Angel Studios or similar projects.
Application Deadline: February 26th 2024
