Animator/Motion Designer
About The Position
You own 2D and 3D animation and motion graphics across all Torus content. The core of the job is translating Torus's products and features into visual explainers that simplify complexity and clearly articulate value. You'll take a concept or script and build it out into a finished sequence: storyboarding, animating, and polishing until it's ready to ship. You’ll work closely with video editors and directors to support larger content pieces with animation. Projects will range from docu-style features to concise product explainers. The common thread across projects is a passion for bringing ideas and stories to life through the power of visual design.
