Minimalist Character Assets for YouTube Channel

Hello,

I am looking for a designer to create minimalist PNG character assets for a YouTube Shorts animation channel.

This is not for detailed illustration — I need very simple, clean, reusable assets optimized for fast animation.

Style Requirements

• Minimalist / flat design
• Very simple shapes (circle / blob / stickman style)
• Solid colors (no shading or gradients)
• Clean outlines
• Consistent style across all assets
• Designed inside Canva or illustrator

Reference style: Simple viral Shorts animation / countryball-like simplicity.

Deliverables

I need:

1) Characters

• 5 unique characters (different colors / personalities)

Each character must include separate PNG exports for:

– Neutral face
– Happy face
– Angry face
– Shocked face
– Sad face
– Confused face
– Smug / evil face

2) Reaction / Pose Variations

For each character:

– Normal standing
– Slight tilt left
– Slight tilt right
– Surprise / jump pose
– Nervous / sweating reaction

3) Background Pack

• 3–5 simple backgrounds (minimalist style)

Examples:

– Simple gradient / abstract
– Classroom style
– Generic room / neutral
– Optional fun background

Export Requirements (VERY IMPORTANT)

• PNG format
• Transparent background
• High resolution (suitable for 1080×1920 vertical video)
• Clean edges (no compression artifacts)

Assets must be animation-friendly (no excessive details).

Usage Context

These assets will be used for high-volume Shorts animation, so simplicity, consistency, and modular design are more important than visual complexity.

Questions for You
