Freelance Animator / Illustrator
Title: Animator / Illustrator – Playful & Minimalist Style
Location: Remote U.S.
Job Type: Freelance / Contract
(APPLICATIONS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED WITHOUT A PORTFOLIO)
About the Role
We’re looking for a versatile Animator/Illustrator who can translate our creative direction into engaging illustrations and light animations for social media, packaging, in-app experiences, and marketing materials. You’ll work closely with our brand team to develop characters, icons, and patterns that tell small but meaningful stories - all within a clean, pared-back aesthetic.
What You’ll Do
• Create playful, pared-back illustrations featuring whimsical organic shapes, minimalist lines, and soft, approachable colors.
• Develop anthropomorphic abstractions (e.g., brains, dots, clouds) with simple limbs and expressive faces to convey mood.
• Produce light animations in the same style for social posts, reels, and app moments.
• Maintain consistency with our limited color palette (soft pastels, warm neutrals, with occasional bold pops).
• Incorporate loose, confident lines, subtle textures (halftones, dots), and creative use of negative space.
• Collaborate with our brand team to iterate on sketches and refine concepts.
• Design expressive icons, patterns, and one-off illustrations for both internal and external use.
What We’re Looking For
• Strong portfolio showing playful, minimalist illustration and animation work (please include links in your application).
• Experience with 2D animation tools (e.g., After Effects, Adobe Animate, Procreate, or similar).
• Ability to balance hand-drawn spontaneity with clean, deliberate execution.
• Comfort experimenting with organic shapes, imperfect forms, and whimsical character design.
• Strong storytelling skills — able to convey feeling and humor with minimal detail.
• Collaborative and open to feedback, with the ability to iterate quickly.
Bonus Skills
• Experience creating assets for social media campaigns.
• Familiarity with pattern design and iconography.
• Understanding of brand consistency and visual identity systems.

Pay: $35.00 - $150.00 per hour
