Forever after (short animated film)

We're looking for a 2D Animator to help bring the film's emotional moments to life through expressive character animation. The animation style leans toward a hand-drawn, painterly aesthetic with a focus on subtle acting, body language, and cinematic storytelling rather than fast-paced action. Experience with frame-by-frame animation is preferred, and we're looking for someone who enjoys creating heartfelt, atmospheric scenes that communicate emotion through movement.

This is an unpaid passion project, but you'll collaborate with a dedicated creative team, receive full credit for your work, and help shape an original animated short film to be released on YouTube.

You'll be responsible for applying and refining the film's color palettes, ensuring each scene supports the story while maintaining visual consistency throughout. Since the film features two parallel spiritual realms, color plays a key role in the storytelling, making an eye for atmosphere, lighting, and emotion especially important.
