Looking for: Supervising/Senior Animators for a 26×11 Toon Boom cut-out animated series

Submarine_WellieWishers_still

Amsterdam-based Submarine is looking for experienced animators to work on a 26×11 animated series. The look of the series can be best described as an illustration-like 2D style, with rich textures and soft pencil lines, with a rig-based cut-out animation technique. The series’ main characters are little girls, childlike and relatively realistic – elements that should be communicated in the characters’ movements and emotions.

Requirements

  • Solid understanding of 2D character animation
  • Experience with cut-out animation is a strong asset
  • Experience with animating in Harmony is a strong asset
  • Ability to work with strict deadlines and a fast-paced production environment
  • Strong communication skills
  • English and/or Dutch speaking skills

Team

You’ll work on one episode at a time in a small team, consisting of one animation supervisor, two senior animators and two or three junior animators.

Location

Work takes place exclusively on location: Submarine studios in Amsterdam. We can help with finding accommodation were you to relocate to Amsterdam for this production.

Timeframe

Full-time. Looking for supervising/senior animators from early May 2016 until early 2017.

Contact

Get in touch with Tünde Vollenbroek via tunde@submarine.nl for information. Please attach CV (and references) and portfolio.

“Haring” by Davor Bujakovic & Junaid Chundrigar

  By

Haring tells the tale of Diederik, a guy who makes the mistake of eating a herring right before a date. When he finds out his fishy breath destroys everything in its path, he does his best to get rid of the smell, while also trying to reach his date in time.

Haring was made with the collaboration from the Netherlands Film Fund, SNS Reaal and Pathé and was made for the 2014 UltraKort program. The film screened in front of Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” in all Dutch Pathé cinemas. It was made using TVPaint.
