We are looking for an experienced, creative and hard working animator/motion graphics designer to join our small but growing team in Cape Town, whilst being supported by an experienced production team based in London, UK.
You would typically be working on explainer animations, often including characters with voice over, however, you might also work on other forms of animation content such as typography, infographics, and motion graphics integrated into live action footage.

You’ll need to be comfortable producing abstract quirky content (https://toplinecomms.wistia.com/medias/z564elfgcq) as well as more literal character pieces (https://toplinecomms.wistia.com/medias/ep2jm9coz6).
You would be perfect for this role if you:
Have produced explainer animations for corporate clients
Know After Effects and Illustrator inside out
Can work to tight deadlines
Are able to create storyboarded concepts based on voice over scripts and a brief
