[CLOSED] Character Artist and Animator for 6 month mobile project
Hi all. Polybition Studios is a new games company that is starting development on the 9th of January 2017.

Re: [CLOSED] Character Artist and Animator for 6 month mobile project
I'm interested in how you came to these estimates MamoruK. 2 months of rigging for a month of animation seems ridiculous and on the 15 games I've shipped over the last decade wouldn't expect to manage resources like this for such a short production.

@MamoruK thanks for replying dude, its interesting to see how others work, I didn't expect that animators rigged by hand from scratch that much but as he said 9 of the characters are identical in proportions which would knock a huge chunk of that off anyway! -

Thank you for this advice, as mentioned we will consider hiring two specialists if we struggle to find someone. -

We would like to have these tasks handled by one person ideally. However, if we are unable to find someone that can fill this position then we will consider hiring two specialists.
