We're Hiring: Comic Illustrator & 2.5D Animator

Company: Kodestra

Employment Type: Project-Based / Contract

Location: Remote

Compensation: Negotiable based on portfolio and project requirements

Kodestra is looking for a versatile creative professional who can combine high-quality digital comic illustration with cinematic 2.5D animation.

This project requires more than conventional video editing. We need someone who understands visual storytelling, layered artwork, character consistency, and motion comic production.

What You'll Work On

• Approximately 40 original comic panels.
• 10 animated videos, approximately 30–36 seconds each.
• Semi-realistic, cinematic dark-fantasy visuals.
• Layered artwork prepared for 2.5D animation.
• Parallax depth, camera movement, atmospheric effects, and cinematic transitions.

Required Skills

• Digital illustration and comic/graphic novel artwork.
• Adobe Photoshop or Clip Studio Paint.
• Adobe After Effects.
• 2.5D parallax animation and motion comics.
• Layer separation, composition, and character consistency.

Who Should Apply?

Artists who can independently manage both the illustration and animation pipeline, from original artwork to final animated scenes.

Please note that manually created illustrations are required. AI-generated artwork will not be accepted for the illustration component.

Application Requirements

Share your portfolio demonstrating BOTH:

• Original comic illustration or sequential artwork.
• Completed 2.5D animation or motion comic work.

Also include your availability and expected compensation.

A lightweight skills assessment may be requested before final project confirmation.

Apply only if your portfolio demonstrates both skill sets.
