r/forhire – [For Hire] Professional Animated Ads – Motion design and Explainer videos for competitive prices.

Hello there,

My name is Oliver, I’m a video producer and animator, and I am currently looking to take on new projects.

About me:

For the last 4 years, I have been working on the Australian comedy web series Mining Boom. I also made a half-hour TV Pilot which won “Best Animation” at the LA Film Awards in March 2019. I also made a lot of custom safety videos using the characters on the show for several Mining Sites in Australia.

2. Online Ads, Motion Graphics and Explainer Videos Portfolio:

I have a lot of experience helping my corporate clients promote their services and products via simple motion graphics videos. Mostly using icons and simple visual elements.

Price and budget:

It depends on the complexity and requirements of each individual client on a per-project basis.

Consider the following prices in the ballpark of what I offer my services for.

2D Character animation – raging from ~350$/minute of simple animation up to ~900$/minute complex animation. (depending on action complexity, number of assets, scenes and backgrounds, the price might be higher)

2D character design – starting from 50$/character of simple design up to 250$/complex design. (character rigging included in the price of design) 

Scripting, Storyboards, mood boards, and animatics – are to be established depending on complexity and length.

Online ads, motion graphics, and explainer videos – starting from 150$/minute of simple animation up to 250$/minute of complex animation. 

Voice-over –  starting from 100$/minute of video or max range of 250 words. (Using our in-house VO artist. Samples provided above)

Let’s start discussing your next big project. Looking forward to hearing from you guys.

Best regards,

Oliver.
