This role involves creating high-quality 3D character animations for a narrative-driven, first-person horror game developed in Unreal Engine 5. The project, Fun School: Chapter 2, continues the story from the previous chapter, immersing players in the eerie environment of an abandoned private boarding school. The animator will be responsible for bringing characters to life through custom walk and run cycles, dynamic cutscenes, and expressive dialogue animations. The animation style should closely align with the cinematic approach seen in games like Poppy Playtime Chapters 2 to 4. All work is to be completed remotely, and while there is flexibility in the timeline, timely delivery is preferred.


Deliverables

- Develop custom walk and run cycles for multiple characters.

- Animate cutscenes that drive the narrative and enhance player immersion.

- Create dialogue animations that convey character emotions and interactions.

- Ensure all animations are compatible with Unreal Engine 5 and integrate seamlessly into the game environment.

- Collaborate with the project owner to refine animation style and meet creative goals.

- Provide regular progress updates and respond to feedback throughout the project.


Requirements

- Proven experience in 3D character animation, preferably for games or interactive media.

- Strong proficiency with Unreal Engine 5 and relevant animation tools (e.g., Maya, Blender).

- Ability to create expressive, cinematic animations that support narrative storytelling.

- Familiarity with horror or suspenseful game genres is a plus.

- Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently on a remote basis.

- Strong attention to detail and commitment to delivering high-quality work within reasonable timeframes.
