Anime Sakuga 2D Animators (Clip Studio)

Job Description

Studio: Liquid Solid Studios

Project: Teaser Trailer for New Original Anime Series

Type: Remote, Freelance

Tool: Clip Studio Paint

Animation Style: Anime 2D, cel-shaded, sakuga/fight-heavy

Liquid Solid Studios are looking to bring on 3–4 experienced 2D sakuga animators to help us finish our anime teaser trailer for a new original anime series. This is a short-term, high-intensity remote gig focused on dynamic fight scenes and high-motion shots.

🎯 Scope of Work:

We currently have 7 cuts (each 1–2 seconds long) in various stages of completion:

• Some shots already have keyframes and layout done and need tie-downs, genga, doga, or in-betweens.
• A couple of shots will need to be built from scratch — layout to final.
• Others just need clean in-between work to bring them over the finish line.

Compensation (per cut or stage):

Please note: these are ballpark rates and may vary based on complexity and your skill level.

📩 How to Apply:

• Drop your portfolio or reel (especially fight scenes or sakuga-style work)
• Indicate your availability and preferred task(s)
• Mention whether you prefer flat rate or hourly
• They’ll be reviewing on a rolling basis and will reach out for Discord interviews

Requirements

• Strong understanding of sakuga-style animation — expressive movement, impactful timing, and detailed anatomy.
• Must be comfortable working in Clip Studio Paint.
• Previous experience animating fight scenes or high-action sequences is a big plus.
• Ability to start immediately.
• Open to international, remote applicants.
• Payment via PayPal or wire transfer, negotiable per artist.
