We also provide the opportunity to work on significant projects with local, regional, and international reach across print, online, and broadcast. As a leader in workplace wellbeing, Whitenoise pioneered the four-day working week in April 2022, which offers even more flexibility and work-life balance opportunities. 

Responsibilities

  • Attending client briefings and presentations
  • Working independently and collaboratively on projects
  • Creating concept style frames and storyboards based on supplied project briefs and client brand guidelines
  • Producing animated short films combining 2D/3D animation, music overlays and voice-over audio

  • Be highly proficient in Adobe CC (After Effects, Premiere, Audition, Illustrator, Photoshop)
  • Attention to detail with good verbal and written skills
  • Confidence in presenting concepts to clients and maintaining client relationships
  • Be a good team player but also self-motivated
  • Have the ability to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines while maintaining standards.
  • Manage projects from the concept stage through to the final artwork
