Freelance Motion Graphics Artist Needed

Telling Story, Inc. (New York City)
http://www.tellingstory.com

Freelance motion graphics artist needed for a number of upcoming projects throughout the summer and fall of 2008.

Who We Are: Telling Story, Inc. is a filmmaking firm based in New York City. We create films for national and international business clients that are used to sell, recruit, retain, educate, inform, and inspire. Our programs range from 30-second direct-response TV spots to sales videos to feature-length documentaries.

Who We're Looking For: An exceptionally talented artist who is equally adept at design and animation. You will be asked both to create graphics packages from scratch (when necessary) and to create packages that build upon a client's existing identity materials. Ideally, you would deliver your work to us via FTP as Quicktime files (we post in FCP), and you would be a self-contained and one-stop shop. And, obviously, you would be a true professional, able to adhere to both time and budget guidelines, and able to offer our clients outstanding service.

Ultimately, we want a true collaborator. We want to be able to come to you with a project brief and have a spirited discussion about ideas and approaches. We would look to you for solutions.

The tools you use are up to you. We just need our final deliverables to be Quicktime files that match our project settings.

And, you can be located anywhere. Though we are in NYC, we've had a wonderful collaboration with an artist based in San Francisco.

Please keep in mind this crucial caveat - the market we serve is sometimes cynically dismissed by people as "corporate video." We don't see it that way. Please be of the same mind on this point.

What We'd Like From You: A link(s) to your motion graphic work. Please provide samples that demonstrate both your design and animation skills. A resume or bio would be helpful too. Please send to: andrew[at]tellingstory[dot]com.
