Stylized Luxury 3D Animator

I’m creating a short, high-end digital greeting card in which a single 3D character walks up, hands over a virtual gift, and ends on a warm smile. The clip will be sent from our CEO to an employee, so it has to feel personal yet carry the polished aesthetic people expect from fashion and luxury brands.

I already have a clear mood-board and reference palette; what I need now is someone who can design, rig, and animate a stylized character to match that look, then render a finished sequence that’s ready to drop into our email template and social channels. If you’ve previously animated runway avatars, premium product mascots, or similar luxe pieces, your portfolio will fit right in.

Key points you’ll handle:
• Character modeling (stylized, not photoreal)
• Clean rig for natural arm/hand articulation
• A smooth “presenting the gift” action that plays out in roughly 6–10 seconds
• Final output: 1080×1080 or 1920×1080 MP4 + transparent-background loop (MOV or PNG sequence)

Please mention the software you prefer—whether that’s Maya, Blender, Cinema 4D, or something else—so I know how the files will arrive. I’ll share the art direction deck as soon as we connect and can sign off on timing, lighting, and any cloth or accessory simulations you feel will elevate the piece.

I’m ready to start as soon as I find the right animator and look forward to seeing work that proves you understand luxury detail and stylized charm in equal measure.
