I’m producing a teen‑focused 2D comedy series and need an experienced 2D animator to bring a 15‑minute pilot episode to life. This project is strictly 2D, covering only 2D animation processes from storyboard to final screen‑ready output. The humour relies on expressive character acting, sharp comedic timing and clean, energetic motion, so I’m looking for someone with a strong sense of pacing and visual comedy. I will provide the full script, the completed audio, rough concept references, and two finished key frames that you will build from. You will handle 2D layout, storyboarding, character animation, clean‑up, colouring and final 1080p/24fps renders using any professional 2D toolset (Toon Boom Harmony, Adobe Animate, TVPaint, Krita, etc.) as long as project files remain fully editable. The total budget for this pilot is $1134 AUD, paid within four weeks of project completion, and the budget is not flexible. Deliverables include the fully animated 15‑minute 2D pilot episode, all project files and assets, synced audio, and a concise visual style guide for future episodes. The work must feature smooth, expressive character animation, accurate lip‑sync within ±2 frames, and clean, polished renders free of artefacts. If this project suits your skills and experience, please respond with recent samples of your work that best demonstrate your 2D character animation and comedic timing.

A 15-minute pilot lives or dies on timing. Good character animation matters, but in comedy the pacing between reactions, pauses, and expressions is what keeps viewers engaged. ⭐️⭐️ Complete Portfolio Link ⭐️⭐️ https://www.freelancer.com/u/samang1?frm=samang1&sb=t I've worked on 2D animation projects where lip sync, character acting, and storytelling were just as important as the animation itself. Before committing, I'd like to see the two keyframes and get a sense of the character complexity, because that has a huge impact on workflow and production time. One advantage of your project is that the script and audio are already complete, which makes planning and animation much more efficient. Can you share the keyframes and estimated number of characters appearing in the pilot?
