We are launching a new children's animation project for kids aged 0–6 years and are looking for illustrators and animators to help create the main characters and the visual style of the project.
The project focuses on kindness, calmness, values, the development of thinking, and emotional intelligence in children.
This is not loud or aggressive content, but a warm, visually soft, and meaningful children's format.
Concept (briefly)
- Main characters: animals, without clothing and without human attributes externally
- At the same time, they use recognizable human objects, but made from natural materials (wood, leaves, ropes, nuts, etc.)
- World: natural, fairy-tale, but logical and understandable for children
- Style: soft, clean, expressive, with an emphasis on emotions and facial expressions
The project is designed to be:
- interesting and understandable for children
- visually pleasant and respectful for parents
What we need:
In the first stage:
- character design development (possibly several options)
- working out character through appearance, poses, emotions
- ability to draw characters in a way that they are suitable for further animation
In the future, possible:
- 2D animation
- long-term collaboration
Who we are looking for:
- Illustrators / animators with experience working with a children's audience (preferably)
- Ability to work in a soft, uncluttered style
- Understanding of child psychology and visual perception
- Ability to work according to the technical specifications and refine details
What to send in response:
Please be sure to include:
- link to portfolio
- examples of characters / children's illustrations
- your experience (if any) in children's projects
- estimated timelines and work format
❗ Applications without a portfolio will not be considered.
Additionally:
After selecting a performer:
- detailed technical specifications
- references
- step-by-step work and feedback
The project is long-term, with potential for development.
