Cinematic 3D Gift Animation System

Job ID: 40484439

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I’m building a live-streaming platform and now need the complete 3D gift animation system that makes shows feel as premium as TikTok Live or Bigo Live. The end result must run in real time on mobile devices without dropped frames, handling everything from the first trigger tap to the final particle fade-out.

Scope of work
• Design and build a library of ultra-HD, movie-quality gifts covering all three themes I selected—Fantasy (think dragons, castles, enchanted swords), Luxurious (supercars, palaces, golden thrones) and Cosmic (galaxies, shooting stars, nebulas).
• Produce full-screen “room takeover” sequences with dramatic camera moves, depth of field, volumetric lighting, fire, gold, diamond and galaxy particle systems—no flat GIFs, only true 3D.
• Create snappy entry animations for gifts and for VIP users, along with customizable VIP frames and badges.
• Layer in matching audio: magical swells for fantasy pieces, engine roars and glamorous stingers for luxury, spacey futuristic textures for cosmic gifts. Each animation needs its own synced SFX track plus a short music bed.
• Build the real-time trigger and playback pipeline so gifts appear instantly when users send them inside a live room. Smooth cancel / replay logic included.
• Optimise every asset for mobile GPUs (tiling textures, LODs, GPU-friendly shaders) to ensure 60 fps on current iOS and Android flagships. Web deployment is a nice-to-have but the mobile experience comes first.
• Package everything as a plug-and-play module (Unity SDK, Unreal plugin or comparable engine-ready package) with clear integration hooks for my dev team.

Acceptance criteria
1. Each gift renders at 4K on high-end devices and gracefully degrades to HD on lower tiers while holding 60 fps.
2. Trigger-to-display latency inside the demo live-room scene is under 100 ms on a mid-range phone.
3. Every animation ships with its own baked or procedural sound layer, volume-balanced to industry norms.
4. Commented source, prefabs / blueprints, and an integration guide are delivered; no closed black-box executables.

When you reply, please link to past 3D gift or comparable real-time VFX work, outline your pipeline (e.g., Maya + Unity HDRP, Houdini + Unreal Niagara), give a ballpark cost broken down by milestones, and a realistic delivery schedule. I’m ready to start as soon as I find the right partner.
