**Looking for a 3D Animator (PS1/Retro Style) for a 50/50 YouTube Horror Channel**

**Post Body:**
**Hey everyone,**
**I’m looking to partner up with a 3D animator to launch a new YouTube channel focused on horror.**

**To be completely honest, this might sound like one of those classic "no-gain" hobby ideas people throw around online, but this is a project and an aesthetic I’ve genuinely wanted to try out for a long time.**
**The concept is taking horror films and concepts and recreating them in that janky, nostalgic, low-poly PS1/N64 aesthetic (heavily inspired by channels like** ***Low Poly Shorts*****).**

**The Offer:**
**I am looking for a 50/50 creative partner to build this from the ground up. We will split all channel ownership, YouTube ad revenue, and future sponsorships right down the middle.**
**How We’d Split the Work:**

**My End (Writer / Manager): I will handle all the ideation and scriptwriting. We’ll brainstorm together and make sure we both love the idea before anything goes into production. I’ll also take care of YouTube SEO, channel management, and uploads. (For thumbnails, we can figure out whether you want me to design them or if it's easier for you to snap a render since you'll have the 3D models open!)**

**Your End (Visuals): You handle the animation taking the agreed-upon scripts and bringing them to life in that low-poly, retro horror style.**

**The Audio Question: I’ll be upfront: I'm not a voice actor or sound designer. We can figure out the best way to handle the audio together—whether that means using AI voiceovers and free sound libraries, bringing on someone else later, or if you happen to do audio yourself, even better!**

**If you are a hobbyist, student, or 3D artist who loves the PS1 horror aesthetic, wants to build something cool from scratch, and is looking for a dedicated writer/manager to handle the channel side of things, shoot me a DM! I’d love to chat.**

Hello r/AnimationJobs

We’re RickNRory, a UK-based Twitch Partner creator duo focused primarily on football/EA SPORTS FC content.

We’re looking for a talented 2D animator / motion designer to create a completely custom animated package for our Twitch stream.

Budget: We’re aiming for around $1,000 USD, but we’re open to quotes depending on your portfolio, ideas and the final scope.

The project will include:

• A custom looping Starting Soon animation
• Stinger transitions
• Custom animated subscriber, gifted sub, Bits, donation and raid alerts
• A consistent visual style across the entire package

We’re looking for something fun, polished, characterful and completely custom to our channel/community, not generic or pre-made Twitch graphics.

Experience creating assets for Twitch, StreamElements or OBS would be a big bonus.

We’re also particularly interested in anyone who combines animation/motion design with HTML, CSS or JavaScript and has experience creating custom interactive stream widgets, although this is not essential.

If you’re interested, please comment here to let us know you’ve DM’ed us, then send over your portfolio/showreel and examples of relevant work.

We’ll send you the full project brief in a response to your DM

Cheers!

Length: Approx. 10–15 seconds of total animation. I provide clear, step-by-step guidance.

If interested, please send a private message. 2000s style. I am not looking for perfection. Flexible timeline through October.

Desde hace un tiempo quería hacer un cortometraje (es para un asunto personal), al principio mi idea era aprender a dibujar y después animar. Probé viendo videos en Youtube y entrando a cursos, pero no me sirvió, no aprendí nada y solo perdí el tiempo.

Entonces quería buscar a quien pudiera pagarle para que me hiciera uno. Pero lamentablemente no se ni por donde buscar ;((

Si me pudiera orientar alguien que sepa o que me recomiendan para aprender bien 👍🏻

Se los agradecería mucho, gracias.

[HIRING] Animator Needed for Custom Fantasy YouTube Intro + Outro

Hi! I’m looking to hire an animator to create a fully custom animated intro and outro for our YouTube channel and small crochet business, Dungeon&Yarn.

Budget: 100 - 200 USD. We can discuss if u have a rate.

Target Deadline: I’m flexible if the right animator needs additional time.

About the Brand

Dungeon&Yarn combines:

• Crochet 🧶
• Dungeons & Dragons / tabletop fantasy 🎲
• Gaming
• Anime
• Cute fantasy creatures 🐉
• Magical/cozy fantasy vibes ✨

INTRO — About 6–8 Seconds

I want this to feel like a tiny animated fantasy scene rather than a basic logo reveal.

My rough idea:

The scene begins inside a cozy magical dungeon/workshop.

A glowing purple strand of yarn moves through the environment.

A D20 rolls across a wooden table toward the camera and lands on 20.

When it lands, purple magical energy/sparkles burst from the dice.

Our cute little dragon mascot appears and interacts with the yarn. The dragon could fly around the scene while carrying or chasing the glowing strand.

The yarn/magic eventually forms or reveals the:

Dungeon&Yarn

logo.

The dragon lands on/near the finished logo and possibly releases a small puff of purple magical fire before transitioning into the YouTube video.

I’m open to the animator changing this idea and bringing their own creativity to it.

OUTRO — About 8–12 Seconds

I want the outro to use the same world/style.

One idea would be the dragon relaxing or sleeping on a ball of yarn inside the magical workshop while little magical particles float around the scene.

There should be clear areas for YouTube end-screen elements:

• Subscribe button
• Previous video
• Recommended video

I want the background to still have subtle animation so it feels alive without distracting from the videos/end-screen buttons.

Art / Animation Style

I’m interested in:

• High-quality 2D character animation
• Stylized 3D animation
• 2D/3D hybrid animation
• Cute but cinematic fantasy
• Cozy fantasy
• D&D / RPG-inspired environments
• Purple/blue magical lighting
• Smooth camera movement
• Magical particles/effects
• Expressive mascot animation

Think more like a tiny animated fantasy movie/game intro rather than a standard YouTube logo animation.

Expectations

I am NOT looking for:

• Premade templates
• A logo simply spinning onto the screen
• Generic gaming intro templates
• Stock animation with our logo added
• Low-quality AI-generated video passed off as custom animation

I would like at least 1–2 reasonable revision rounds.

Applying

Please send me:

• Your portfolio
• Examples of your BEST character animation
• Any fantasy/gaming/magical work you’ve done
• Your estimated price
• Estimated turnaround time
• Whether you would create this in 2D, 3D, or a combination
• Your favorite piece from your portfolio that you think matches this project

Please don’t just message “I can do this.”

I’m much more interested in seeing animation that makes me think:

“YES. I want Dungeon&Yarn to look like that.”

I’m not necessarily looking for the cheapest animator. I’m looking for someone who can help turn Dungeon&Yarn into a fun, memorable little fantasy world.

If I don't reach back to u. Shoot me an email

Thank you!

I need a realistic animation of a pickup truck driving on a two lane road in the mountains. It slowly moves across the center line, and soon approaching cars have to swerve around it, on both sides, and soon a semi truck comes into view, and they're headed straight at each other, until the pickup truck swerves off the road at the last minute. I need it from an aerial angle, I need the view out of the windshield, and I need it through the driver's window. It needs to look real. Can I see a reel of your previous work? Thank you!
