3D animators for Rogue Hunter - Science Fiction short film

Hello, we are looking for 3D animators for our short film Rogue Hunter. The production won't start before December 1st, but we decided to already start the project, so wen can incorporate the animators in our pre-production process. We need animation for the characters of Alex and Isaac. Our approach is a mix of both, visual and practical effect. We will have a grey suit with tracking markers on set. Our VFX supervisor will rotoscope the animations. Alex: He is a cyborg similar to Adam Jensen in Deus Ex. The plan is to have animatronic prosthetics for close-ups, but in wide shots we'd switch to CGI. The 3D models will be ready for rigging and animation. The result will look similar to this short film based on the Deus Ex games.

Unless you're based in Los Angeles and could provide or support us with motion capture technology. Isaac: Same approach, an animatronic puppet will be on set for close-ups. The face will be more simplified than in the concept art, similar to Chappie's face in the movie Chappie by Neill Blomkamp. Ideally this level of animation would be great: [login to view URL] Now, we are aware of how time consuming key frame animation can be, hence why we start this process so early. Especially so we can determine how many seconds or minutes of total animation is needed. And also what you would need from us on set to make your work more efficient. If you have any further question, let us know, we will provide any help we can give to simplify the animation process: Better use of the animatronics,
