Manchester, United Kingdom PAPER FILMS Full time

We have an exciting opportunity for a freelance illustrator (who probably already has their oww clients but who wants to grwo their network of clients and scope of work). They must have a love of After Effects as well as illustration skills because we are increasingly asked to produce drawings and into colourful video. We are a small, friendly video production company in central Manchester working across social housing, architecture and landscape design sectors (we across other sectors too of course) and now need to collaborate with an illustrator so that we can develop ideas together and pass work on to them. This would suit a newly graduated illustrator or a freelancer who wants to grow their earnings. We can off a free desk, in a small team and you would be your own boss and keep your own time. We just need a talented, creative who loves film and illustartion to contributre to our output. They would not need to be in our studio everyday of the wekk and can obviously work on their own projects and clients.

As an example we expect that we would be able to commission £700-1200 of work from them a month - but we think this would increase dramatically.
