• Help define the motion language and overall feel of the project
   

Requirements:

• Strong portfolio in 2D animation / motion design for games
• Good understanding of timing, spacing, anticipation, impact, and visual rhythm
• Experience with After Effects, Spine, Adobe Animate, or similar tools
• Ability to animate UI elements, effects, and object-based game assets
• Understanding of how animation supports game feel, clarity, and retention
• Good communication and ability to iterate fast
   

Nice to have:

• Experience in casino, casual, mobile, or feature-heavy game projects
