Hi! My name is Rachel, I am an independent animator currently working on a few 2D animated freelance projects, and am looking to start assembling a team for production. The work is paid, and prices are negotiable per background. $35 is listed on this casting call as sort of a base-line price for background work, and $10 for prop artists.
I am looking for someone, particularly with an anime-like style, that is willing and available to stay on long-term. Backgrounds will include scenes such as typical school-backgrounds, magical kingdom scenes, dark forests and castles, etc. Anyone auditioning should be comfortable with fantasy-style artwork. I am also ideally looking for DIGITAL 2D artists for these roles, especially those who work with vector art.
Typical workflow for Background/Prop Artists for each background will include being sent a few reference images, being sent the animated scene (to understand where characters will be spatially in the scene and what aspects of the background they will be interacting with), a briefing on the purpose of the scene and mood, and a rough sketch of the desired final background. Artists should be able to assemble all information to create a fitting final piece. Must also be open to completing revisions. Deadlines will be assessed on a per project basis, as artists' personal estimation of time needed based on the requirements will be one of the main determining factors. Artists will always get a say in deadlines. Prop artists will be briefed along with background artists, but will not begin work on a scene until background art is first completed.

Writers will work alongside the director to draft scripts that will help the cast and crew visualize the story. They will give an idea how the story will play out on screen. Writers should be somewhat familiar with proper script formatting and make use of this format in final revisons of the script.

The main duty of the social media manager will be to develop campaigns to advertise our cartoon to our target audience (young adults, approx 16-24). They would work with the director to plan content that leads to both awareness of the project, and overall growth of an audience. They should also be familiar with advertising strategies that most appeal to our target audience in order to grow interest. They are essentially "the voice" of the project, and must be consistent with posts and comfortable using major platforms, like Twitter and Instagram, and also look to expand our social media campaign to other media realms.
Please include either a resume or description of your past experience that demonstrates your understanding of advertising strategy.
