Stop Motion Animation Projects

AE motion graphics animation integrate with Cinema 4D

I’m looking for help with an After Effects motion graphics project. The concept, creative direction and storyboard are already prepared, so the work is mainly focused on the animation rather than developing the idea from scratch. The project uses a 2D dot/pixel-style visual system inspired by Nothing’s graphic language. The After Effects animation will eventually connect with separate Cinema 4D scenes, but the work required is primarily in After Effects. I can provide more details and the storyboard once we have discussed the project and agreed on the scope. As the direction is already established, I expect this to be a relatively quick job for someone experienced with After Effects. Could you let me know your availability and whether you would be open to agreeing a fixed price rather than an hourly rate?

3D Human Avatar Animation & Motion Capture. 20 exercise videos

20 SHORT 3D HUMAN AVATAR EXERCISE VIDEOS. PAID TRIAL Experienced 3D Animator / Motion Capture Specialist Wanted I am creating a book and QR-linked video library for my own acting technique. I have already filmed professional actors performing 20 acting exercises and now need an experienced 3D animator/motion-capture specialist to transform those performances into convincing human-like animated characters while preserving as much of the actors' physical performance as possible. This is NOT a simple AI video/filter job. I need someone experienced in video-to-motion capture, 3D human character animation, motion retargeting and professional video editing. THE PROJECT 20 separate exercise videos, divided into five chapters of four exercises. Each finished video will be approximately 40 seconds–1 minute 20 seconds. For each exercise I have: • Complete wide-shot actor footage • Corresponding close-up footage • Synchronised footage using a clap • Actor stating the exercise name/number at the beginning • Actor performing in time with the VO • One professionally recorded VO file per exercise • Music will be supplied I can provide timing/timecode information. WHAT YOU WILL DO For each video: • Process the actor footage using an appropriate professional video-to-motion/motion-capture workflow • Retarget the movement onto a suitable 3D human avatar • Preserve the actor's physical performance as accurately as possible • Create natural human movement, weight, rhythm and timing • Preserve visible breathing, which is particularly important • Reproduce facial expression/performance as closely as technically possible • Edit wide and close-up footage appropriately • Synchronise animation with my professional VO • Add supplied music • Maintain a consistent visual style across all 20 videos • Export high-quality finished videos suitable for QR-linked online viewing VISUAL STYLE I want human-like 3D animated characters, NOT cartoon animals, generic AI animation or a simple filter over the original footage. The purpose is to protect the identity of the real actors while retaining the qualities of their performances. I envisage approximately three consistent character identities/styles - female, male and gender-neutral but the avatars have not yet been created. I am open to your professional recommendation. SOFTWARE / WORKFLOW I am aware of DeepMotion Animate 3D, but I am NOT requiring DeepMotion and do not currently have an account. I am open to DeepMotion, Rokoko, Reallusion/Character Creator/iClone or another suitable professional workflow. Please recommend the workflow you believe will produce the best result within the budget. PAID TRIAL — REQUIRED I have previously advertised this project and received applicants who claimed they could do the work but could not produce the required result. Therefore, I will not award the project based on claims alone. I will shortlist approximately 3 applicants based on their portfolio and experience. Each shortlisted applicant will be offered a £20 PAID TRIAL using a small section of one actual exercise. The trial will assess: • Motion capture/retargeting • Natural human movement • Breathing/body rhythm • Facial performance where possible • Avatar quality • Wide/close-up editing • VO synchronisation • Overall finish The trial is paid work, not a free sample. ACTOR FOOTAGE — STRICT CONFIDENTIALITY The footage contains identifiable professional actors who have agreed to this specific project on the understanding that their identities are protected. FIXED BUDGET £300 FIXED PRICE FOR ALL 20 FINISHED VIDEOS. The £20 trial is separate. No additional hourly charges or unexpected costs. WHAT I PROVIDE Wide and close-up actor footage, synchronisation references, exercise information, professional VO, music and timing/timecode information. No filming is required. PLEASE ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS 1. What exact software, AI/motion-capture platform and avatar/character system would you use for this project, and why? 2. Show your strongest example of realistic human 3D character animation. 3. Show an example of human movement captured from video, if available. 4. Do you have facial animation experience? Please show an example. 5. How would you preserve breathing, natural rhythm and physical intention from the actor? 6. What avatar/character system would you recommend? 7. Can you complete all 20 videos for the fixed £300 budget? 8. Will you complete the £20 paid trial if shortlisted? 9. Will you comply with the actor-footage confidentiality requirements? 10. If your workflow uses a third-party AI/motion-capture platform, which one and what happens to uploaded footage? Please do not send a generic application. I am looking for someone who can demonstrate genuine ability to produce convincing human animation, not simply someone who says they can do it. The goal is to create 20 believable, human-looking animated demonstrations while protecting the identity of the real actors whose performances created them.

Interactive Athletics Race Visualiser 400m Track Animation

We are developing a new running/athletics web platform and would like to create an interactive race comparison feature. The concept is simple: A user selects a race distance and enters two finishing times. For example: Athlete A: 800m 2:04.00 Athlete B: 800m 1:52.00 When the user presses START, two animated runners race around a graphical 400m athletics track. Each runner moves around the track at the average speed required to achieve their entered finishing time. The purpose is not initially to reproduce the exact pacing pattern of a real race. It is a fun and highly visual way of showing what the difference between two performances actually looks like. For example, instead of simply telling an athlete: “1:52 is 12 seconds quicker than 2:04” the visualiser shows the two runners racing and demonstrates the physical gap on the track when the faster athlete finishes.
