Animator - freelance
At Silent Eight, we develop our own AI-based products to combat financial crimes that enable things like money laundering, the financing of terrorism, and systemic corruption. We’re a leading RegTech firm working with large international financial institutions such as Standard Chartered Bank and HSBC. Join us and help make the world a safer place!
We are seeking talented freelancers to establish a long-term partnership with our growing marketing team. As our in-house design team’s capacity increases, we anticipate the need for more specialized animation work. This role is ideal for someone who is ready to collaborate with us on an ongoing basis as projects arise.
Responsibilities:
- Create 2D and/or 3D animations for various projects, including marketing materials, presentations, and explainer videos.
- Develop motion graphics for digital platforms, websites, and video content.
- Prepare and/or work with provided storyboards to visualize ideas effectively.
- Design and create graphic elements needed for animation (icons, illustrations, backgrounds, etc.).
- Collaborate closely with our design team to bring creative ideas to life.
- Optimize animations for different formats, ensuring smooth playback across devices.
- Edit and enhance existing animations when needed.
What We’re Looking For:
- Proven experience as an Animator, Motion Designer, or in a similar role.
- Proficiency in Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Photoshop/Illustrator.
- Strong understanding of animation principles, timing, and storytelling.
- Experience in designing animation assets, including vector illustrations and UI elements.
- 2D animation skills are essential; 3D motion experience is a plus.
- Ability to create GIFs, looped animations, and video overlays.
- Attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple projects.
- Sound editing skills would be a plus.
Timeline & Engagement:
- Due to the nature of our projects, we often receive requests with short notice (sometimes one day to the next). We will coordinate the delivery timeline for each assignment individually with each freelancer.
- At this point, the frequency and duration of assignments are uncertain. The goal is to establish a pool of freelancers ready to collaborate when our marketing team requires additional support.
If you’re a passionate animator ready to work on a variety of exciting projects and build a long-term collaboration with us, we’d love to hear from you!

Team building events
We know that our success is only possible if we work together as a team. We are a group of passionate individuals united by a common mission.
