I need a seasoned 3D artist–animator to craft a visually striking, realistic animation that will run as pure entertainment content on Imagestudio.com’s media channels. The piece must look cinematic rather than cartoonish, speaking directly to an adult audience that expects polished storytelling, believable physics, and lifelike texturing. Here’s what I have in mind: • Length in the 45-90 second range, though I’m open to your suggestion if a slightly longer or shorter cut serves the narrative better. • Photoreal environments and characters rendered in 4K, with physically based materials, accurate lighting, and fluid motion. • A tight, engaging storyline (I’ll provide the core concept; you handle storyboarding and pacing). • Final delivery in ProRes and H.264, plus all project files (Maya/Blender, textures, simulations, and audio stems) neatly organized so my in-house team can archive or repurpose assets later. Milestones will follow a standard pipeline: concept + storyboard, modeling and lookdev approval, blocking, full animation pass, lighting/FX, then final composite and sound. Clear review checkpoints and quick iterations are important to me, so please be comfortable sharing playblasts or low-res renders as we go. If you thrive on producing high-end, realistic 3D imagery that entertains rather than simply informs, let’s talk. Send a link to your most comparable work and a brief rundown of your preferred toolset and render engine.
