Character Animator

We are a sustainable linen-clothing business with a goal to redefine quality and customer experience in the industry. Founded in 2025 by alumni of IIT Bombay and DU, we are at an early stage of the business - which means there will be lots of opportunities for growth, ownership, creativity and a chance to build the brand's voice from scratch. Our team has the right mix of technical depth and creative direction and this balance shapes everything we build.

You will be working in our creative content lab to build the brand's entertainment IP from the ground up. This internship is the perfect opportunity for you if you love experimenting with ideas, testing them out in the real world and would like to have a real impact.

We are looking for a 2D animator who can do Character Design, Rigging and Animation. The project involves creating a recurring short-form animation with reusable character assets, building rigs and animating them with acting, timing and lip-syncing. The internship is fully-remote and planned for a duration of 3 months.

• Design and rig 2D non-humanoid characters (mostly Quadrupeds) for a recurring weekly web series. Must understand animal anatomy and weight

• Build expression sets, poses, and reusable animation loops

• Execute 30-40 seconds of character animation per week based on provided scripts

• Collaborate on the end-to-end pipeline. You will own the animation, but we will assist with storyboarding and final editing.

• Maintain consistent character design, timing, and acting

• Experience with Toon Boom Harmony or Moho preferred. People with Adobe Animate or Blender (Grease Pencil) experience can apply as well

• Strong understanding of Character Rigging and 2D animation fundamentals

• Must demonstrate ability to rig and animate non-humanoid characters

• Strong understanding of animal locomotion (gaits, weight distribution, tail mechanics). Proficiency with IK, FK (Inverse and Forward Kinematics)

• Ability to provide consistent output with dedication and reliability

• Good communication skills with a creative mind and proactive approach to problem solving

• Portfolio or Demo Reel demonstrating Character Acting and Dialogue/Lip-Sync

• Experience with Storyboarder or Storyboard Pro

• Experience with social-first content [Youtube shorts | Instagram | Tiktok]

• We'll be using Midjourney/Firefly/Stable Diffusion to generate environmental assets so you can focus on the character. Experience with different art styles and any one of these tools is preferred
