High-End 3D Drama Animator

I have a fast-moving social-media drama series in production and need a professional 3D animator who is comfortable integrating AI tools (Think: Blender or Maya with Motion Capture plugins, Unreal Engine, RunwayML, etc.) to keep the workflow lean and cinematic. The show is aimed squarely at teens and young adults, and each episode blends sharp, serious beats with lighter, almost meme-ready moments—so the animation has to move effortlessly between realism and playful exaggeration.

What I need from you:
• 3D character and environment animation that feels premium yet social-platform friendly (short, punchy shots, vertical and horizontal formats).
• Smart use of AI-assisted rigging, texturing, or in-betweening to hit tight drop dates without sacrificing polish.
• Final renders (4K master + compressed socials) synced to supplied voice tracks and music stings.

Acceptance criteria:
1. Fluid, on-model character performance reflecting both dramatic and comedic beats.
2. Clean lighting, depth of field, and color passes ready for grade.
3. Delivery of project files (blend/ma/uasset) alongside rendered media for quick tweak cycles.

If you have a reel that proves you can pivot between Netflix-level storytelling and TikTok snappiness, drop it in your bid together with a short note on which AI tools you like to fold into your pipeline. I’m ready to start immediately and will be reviewing submissions within hours.
