I need a basic pixel-art animated cutscene based on the provided storyboard/reference image (see attachment). IMPORTANT: negotiating higher price than your bid will automatically disqualify you. Please carefully set your price. 1. Opening — 6 seconds * Static camera, relatively close view of the group from behind. * Two humans are sitting on a hill. * A kitten and a crab are next to them and make small cheerful jumps, alternating. 2. Slow zoom out — 30 seconds * Starting second 6, begin a very slow and smooth zoom out. * Gradually reveal the surrounding hills, coastline and sea like on the storyboard. * The kitten and crab keep jumping. * The sun gradually sets 3. Final shot * Stop at a wide composition like on the storyboard. * Keep the warm sunset with orange/pink/purple sky. * Do not transition to night or fade to black (sun/lights remain the same). After that, I need a seamless loop of the final static wide shot for several minutes, with only the kitten and crab continuing to jump. Deliverables: * 36-27 sec main animation * seamless final-shot loop * 16:9, 1920×1080 * Full sources in Adobe After Effects project (.aep) or whichever app you use * camera, background and character animations on separate layers/precomps * no baked-in credits Sample will be checked before award

I’m Kaif Hasan. I saw your project and wanted to help you. I’d build the scene with layered pixel-art elements, a smooth controlled zoom-out, synchronized character jumps, and a seamless wide-shot loop without altering the sunset mood. 1. Can you provide the storyboard/reference image and original pixel-art assets? 2. Do you have a preferred software for the editable source, or may I use After Effects? I’m new on Freelancer, but I have 7+ years of experience, and I’m offering the most reasonable rates to build great client relationships.

Creating a pixel-art animated cutscene that captures the charm of your storyboard is an exciting opportunity. The gradual zoom out revealing the landscape while keeping the playful energy of the kitten and crab will create a captivating scene. I suggest implementing a smooth animation style that maintains the whimsical feel throughout, ensuring a seamless loop for the final shot that keeps the viewer engaged.

Hi! I am interested in this project, and I've done one step further already: I've already made a working sample based on your storyboard/reference and am happy to show it to you right now I've focused on the pixel-art style, the composition, the sunset, the camera's out-zoom, the character's movements, and the final seamless loop as you've described. Since I've already done a working sample, you can see the quality and approach to the task before you decide on hiring me instead of others. I am very flexible and happy to receive any suggestions, feedback, and redirection. If you have a particular image, timing, or animation in mind, I am happy to make those changes. I am really interested in working on this with you, and I'd like to revise the animation until the result matches your expectations. I can provide the sample to you quickly to review.

Hi! I’m a Pixel Art artist and 2D animator, and I’d love to work on this cutscene. I understand the main focus is creating a calm, smooth cinematic scene: the two humans sitting on the hill, the kitten and crab making small alternating jumps, followed by a slow zoom out that gradually reveals the hills, coastline and sea while the sunset develops. I can also create the final wide composition as a seamless loop, keeping the kitten and crab animated while the rest of the scene remains static. I’ll work in 1920×1080 (16:9) and keep the camera, background and character animations organized in separate layers/precomps. I can provide the complete source project in the software I use, along with the final animation. I’m also available to create the requested sample so you can evaluate the Pixel Art style and animation quality before awarding the project. Thank you for considering my proposal!

Hello there, I Am a Game Developer specialized in pixel art. Animating Pixel Art is not the same as classic bone 2D animation, since you cant deform the sprites, a normal 2D animator wouldnt be able to pull this off, it must be animated frame by frame. The software I will use is Libresprite, the industry standard for pixel art animation. DM me with any illustration references and I will get it ready in less than a week.
