Wanted : 2D animation / presentation
« on: July 27, 2012, 12:42:53 PM »
Does anyone know a freelancer who does animation type work? Simple animations to liven up voice-overs.. the sort of thing you get as site introductions?

I've just included 6 x 2 minute animation in a proposal and realise that the guy I use for film "doesn't do animation".

£499 for 30 seconds?  I assume they didn't use all the budget!
Do you still have the finished version anywhere to nose at?

you assume wrongly :)

Erm yes, sorry to be the bearer of bad news but animation takes a long time and skill to get it right and looking good, you definitely get what you pay for, this one was a cheap one so you had better buy a few truck loads of cider if you want decent quality and 12 mins in total of animation. :-\

If you can get into the beta testing this new startup looks promising - http://www.powtoon.com/
they also have a fiverr style marketplace if you need a little help (albeit it's still very early days) - http://www.powtoon.com/marketplace/

Powtoon looks good. We've been trying to get on the beta.  Not what I would use on this particular project, but there are some that I would.
