Short animation to tease a new product
I’m looking for a designer to create a 15-second animation to tease a new product. The concept is to build anticipation by showing the product flickering on screen, as though it is about to be revealed. This would be followed by a sequence of on-screen text (which I will provide) to deliver the strapline and key messaging. The animation should then end with a clear call-to-action, including a QR code directing viewers to a website. I can supply a trackable QR code for this. I also have a poster that can be used as visual inspiration and direction for the animation. This will need to be completed by Monday 11th May.

45 second narrated Animation Required.
We require a narrated animation to explain an industrial process. I have no graphics to supply so each element will have to be drawn from explainer photographs or diagrams. I will require hand holding as I have never commissioned an animation before. All advice welcome. The tone will need to be professional, not too quirky. The target audience is scientists. The whole animation needs to suggest a very controlled industrial environment. The animation will show a patented machine using sound waves to interface with and clean and clear graphite build up. Below is what we wish to achieve visually as a minimum 1. Our Company Logo on screen for approx 5 seconds 2. Images of sound waves working their magic - approx 10 seconds. 3. An image of our machine with a lance/hose attached (machine made to look a little more modern) - approx 10 seconds. 4. An image of a graphite stack and bricks being removed piece by piece - 10 seconds 5. An image of the nano microwaves (basically the same as above butmore of them/ working faster) The 45 second narration we wish to have his below. 'Amaryllis captures trapped value enabling graphite to be reclaimed. Our patented acoustic cleaning apparatus deploys multiple, low-frequency sound waves, avoiding all greenhouse gases, carbon and water. We deliver safely and with zero hours of operating failure. We have developed a floating extraction method which can remove graphite blocks, vastly improving cost and performance. Our system breaks the blocks through fluidisation, allowing the graphite to slide out using the correct frequencies and harmonics. We can generate up to 200 million nano micro waves every 4 hours which will break the graphite down' Amaryllis - reaching graphite safely and securely'

Bespoke 20-Second Wedding Save-the-Date Animation
I am looking for a professional motion graphics artist to create a bespoke 20-second "Save the Date" video for my wedding in the Philippines. The core inspiration for the movement and flow comes from this video: Reference: https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/42362052740045831/ I want my video to take this concept and make it even better. I have used AI to generate a series of stylistic reference images (attached) to show the Tropical, Bright, Bold, and Elegant vibe I am aiming for. I want the final product to look premium, high-definition, and custom-made—not like a template. The Storyboard (Vertical 9:16 / 1080x1920) The video should flow through these four scenes: Scene 1: The Beach Reveal. A top-down, full-screen shot of a white sand beach. A turquoise ocean wave washes over and recedes to reveal the text "SAVE THE DATE" written in the sand. Scene 2: The Journey. A transition into a lush, tropical Indian-inspired environment (hibiscus flowers, palm fronds, gold henna motifs). Our wedding logo should be introduced here with the text: "Join us on our journey together." * Note: I will provide our custom logo in Adobe Illustrator (.ai) format for you to animate. Scene 3: The Dates. A focus on elegant ritual elements (ceremonial fire/henna) to present the dates: "16th & 17th February 2027" in gold calligraphy. Scene 4: The Finale. A shimmering, sophisticated gold background featuring the location: "The Shangri-La, Mactan, Cebu, Philippines." * Also include: "More details to follow soon. Please RSVP to Shamil or Ara. Thank you." Technical Requirements - Duration: 20 Seconds. - Aspect Ratio: 1080 x 1920 (Vertical for mobile/WhatsApp). Assets: I will provide AI-generated "Style Frames" and the master .ai logo file. Audio: No music is required; I am focused strictly on the visual animation. Proposal Requirements In your proposal, please address the following: The Reference: Looking at the Pinterest link provided, how will you ensure the "water reveal" in Scene 1 looks realistic and high-end? Logo Animation: How would you animate the provided Illustrator logo to give it a premium, shimmering, or 3D gold effect? The Transition: How do you plan to transition from the organic beach textures to the bright, bold tropical/Indian aesthetics of the later scenes?
OUTLINE DRAWING TURNED INTO 6 SECOND MOVING ANIMATION
I have two black outline drawings (see attached) I want them turned into 6 second moving animations. The standing person goes up and down by lowering and raising the heel of their feet - calf raises The seated person raises and lowers their knees by raising and lowering the heels on their feet - calf raises.

I need an animated logo
I’m looking for a clean, mono (single-colour) animated logo based on the attached design for a community garden project called “offgrid Community.” The animation should feel organic and natural, like a plant growing. The stem should begin at the base and gradually extend upward over time, with branches forming as it grows. Leaves should then sprout and open out from the branches in a smooth, fluid motion, as if naturally unfolding. As the plant develops, the text “offgrid Community” should appear in sync with the growth - either fading in or subtly revealing alongside the stem as it reaches its final form. The full animation should run for approximately 4–5 seconds and feel calm, minimal, and modern rather than overly complex. The final deliverable must be in Lottie (JSON) format for web use, sized to 400x240px with a transparent background, and optimised for smooth playback on a website.
Two 8 second animations
I have two 8 second videos that I would like to turn into animations. (attached is one of them) I just need to slightly change the shape and color of the knee rest and foot rest. And emphasise the calf muscles working.

I need an animated background for our website login page
I need a designer to create me an animated background for the login page for our website. The inspiration for this comes from this web page. https://stripe.com/gb where there is a fluid gradient design that is animated on a cycle that runs down the page vertically.

Cinematic Space Technology Animation Full Storyboard Provided.
WHAT THIS IS I am developing a space debris removal technology called ARDENT and need a high-quality cinematic animation for use in: - IP licensing meetings with aerospace prime contractors (ClearSpace UK, Astroscale) - UK Space Agency grant application (£75.6M programme) - UK Space Conference 2026 presentation This is NOT a generic explainer video. This is a cinematic science film — think SpaceX Starship launch films, ESA debris visualisation videos, or NASA JPL science films. Serious, awe-inspiring, technically accurate. I have a COMPLETE production storyboard document (Word doc, ~25 pages) containing: ✓ Shot-by-shot descriptions for all 13 shots ✓ Camera directions for every shot ✓ Full voiceover script (310 words, ~2m35s read time) ✓ Sound and music notes per shot ✓ AI video prompts per shot (Sora/Runway formatted — you may use these or ignore them) ✓ Style references for every scene type ✓ Colour palette and brand guidelines (ARDENT navy/gold) You will not need creative meetings before quoting. The brief is complete. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ THE 13 SHOTS IN BRIEF ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 01 — Earth from orbit, opening wide shot (8s) 02 — Orbital debris field visualisation with statistics overlay (12s) 03 — Defunct satellite collision in slow motion (10s) 04 — ARDENT title card (8s) 05 — Servicer spacecraft approaching debris target (14s) 06 — Vision system characterising debris with HUD overlay (12s) 07 — THE HERO SHOT: cannon fires, net deploys in slow motion (14s) ← most important 08 — Net envelops debris, cinch mechanism closes (17s) 09 — Drag augmentation sail unfurls, passive deorbit begins (17s) 10 — Data/statistics sequence with kinetic typography (13s) 11 — Three failure modes solved — comparison graphic (17s) 12 — Epic wide beauty shot, full system against Earth (13s) 13 — End card with logo reveal (15s) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ STYLE & TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Style: Cinematic CGI — photorealistic space environment, not cartoon or flat design References: SpaceX Starship landing films / ESA space debris visualisations / NASA JPL Resolution: 4K minimum (3840×2160), 16:9 Frame rate: 24fps cinematic (slow motion shots at 50fps+ then slowed) Format: MP4 H.264 master + compressed version for presentations Source files: Included in price (After Effects, Blender, or Cinema 4D project files) Voiceover: NOT included — I will record or commission separately Music: NOT included — I will license separately from Artlist/Epidemic Sound Colour grade: Cinematic, cool-toned space palette with warm Earth glow ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ THE HERO SHOT — SHOT 07 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Shot 07 is the centrepiece of the film and the most important shot to get right. It shows a cold-gas cannon on the nose of a spacecraft firing a net package into space. The net blossoms open — 20 metres of fine Dyneema mesh expanding beautifully against black space, corner masses swinging out, sunlight catching the mesh fibres in gold. It travels at a visibly slow, controlled pace. This shot is beautiful and it needs to feel like a genuine engineering miracle. Please pay special attention to this shot in your proposal — showing me you've thought about how to achieve it will go a long way. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT I NEED IN YOUR PROPOSAL ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. Your showreel / portfolio — specifically anything with: space, particles, slow motion physics, mechanical sequences, or technical animation 2. Which shots you'd approach using 3D CGI vs AI-assisted generation vs motion graphics 3. Your proposed timeline 4. Your fixed price for the complete deliverable 5. Two or three sentences on how you'd approach Shot 07 specifically I will provide the full storyboard document to shortlisted applicants immediately. IDEAL FREELANCER PROFILE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ - Experience with space, science, or technical CGI animation (essential) - Proficient in Cinema 4D, Blender, or equivalent 3D software (essential) - After Effects for compositing and motion graphics (essential) - Experience with particle systems and physics simulation (important) - Comfortable working from a detailed written brief without hand-holding - UK-based preferred but not essential — must be comfortable with English-language brief NOT suitable for this project: - Character animators - 2D flat/explainer video specialists - Whiteboard animation - Template-based video makers A skilled animator using a combination of 3D CGI for the mechanical shots and AI-assisted generation for the space environment shots can deliver this within a good budget. I am happy to discuss a phased approach if helpful — priority shots first, balance on delivery. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Looking forward to hearing from you. Please message with your portfolio and proposal.
