This is something else that has always bothered me...the description laughably didn't even get to the animation part before it cut off. You want a junior 3D animator...but what you are asking for, is not a junior 3D animator. Not only are you asking too much but you're rarely going to get "high-quality" anything from a junior, they're still learning and have little to no experience yet. I absolutely LOVE my baby animators and they can deliver good work, but they need someone to help them get their sea legs before they can hit that mark. It's something I've seen happen more than once, a studio will hire in a bunch of young, fresh juniors who don't know what they're signing up for, pay them pennies, and expect them to produce top notch work for a fraction of the cost. That's just not realistic. Especially when you expect them to basically be an all-in-one pro generalist. Please support hiring juniors with good intentions to actually help grow and cultivate their skills, training them to become those high-quality animators you seek.

Ok… so I’m looking for an animator… except I’ve been getting these unhinged messages…. I am looking for AN(singular) animator. I’ve taken the stance fully that we at LowKeyHighEntertainment will not be outsourcing. As in I will not hire a dude that’s in charge of a team that will split profits. That behavior is not fair, and nothing pisses me off more than a middle man. So if you run your shop like that, I am not interested in the slightest. Idgaf what portfolio you show me. I plan to find an animator, pay them fulltime and just them for their work. But let’s do it again. 1:UE5 animator or Blender 2: pref lives in Houston Tx, but it isn’t 100% necessary. 3: can mix 2D VFX with their 3D animation. 4: I don’t care about your resume, show me some to info neat. Junior, senior, mid, if you’re a cat, idc. I look at potential, and I’ll give you 100% if you give me 100%

Calling all budding Trainee VFX Junior Compositors. Get your reels ready! Two roles up for grabs; https://lnkd.in/ekyYkSzM. Top tips below; Hiring teams at Aardman are busy and compassionate people who love to match individuals with amazing career opportunities. We receive many, many applications, and frequently see basic mistakes that prevent candidates moving to the next stage. Here are some top tips that we hope will help you stand out from the crowd! 1/ Give yourself plenty of time to put together your application. 2/ Read, read, and read again the job description. What is the studio looking for and how well do your skills match the role? 3/ Make sure you tailor your application to the specific studio you are contacting and include any required key skills/level of experience/software knowledge and personal specifications. 4/ Keep all your contact details/reel information and passwords together in one place – your CV! 5/ Always include a covering letter. This gives you the opportunity to support your application and make it personal to you. Include one or two brief paragraphs about yourself and include what you do to support your creativity and passion for animation. 6/ Do your research about the company, people, projects, and policies. Dig deep and find something unique to mention in your covering letter. This shows interest and attention to detail. 7/Many roles require you to have a portfolio and/or reel. Make sure it is well-put together to highlight only your very best work that captures the viewer in the first 10 seconds, and demonstrates your skills, level of experience and personal style. 8/ For CG/VFX specific roles, make sure you include shot breakdowns. Detail your artistry and credit studio production names, “baking” text into a horizontal banner in each shot/sequence. For students who have collaborated on a group graduation film make sure you include your specific shots to showcase your individual skill. 9/ Test your reel link – make sure it works! If it is password protected remember to share the details and include it in all correspondence. 10/Don’t submit your application at the last minute or too near to the closing date as recruiting teams may interview as they go. Good Luck!
