Freelance: Motion Graphics & Design - USA

Framestore Integrated Advertising are always on the look‑out for exceptional design talent. If you are a freelancer who would be interested in being kept on our books for future freelancing opportunities in our US based offices, please submit your details to us – we would love to hear from you!

The design freelancers we use are comfortable using Photoshop CC, Illustrator and AfterFX with Cinema 4D, Houdini or Maya being an added bonus, but not always essential. The work is predominantly executing animations (designed and art directed by senior members of the creative team), so strong 2D and/or 3D animation skills are essential. In addition, being able to draw/storyboard, develop character designs or an interest in typography are all useful characteristics that may be required depending on the needs of the job.

Our freelance opportunities will always be advertised on our website and we will get in touch with people who have submitted their details as and when opportunities arise. There is no need to apply here more than once – once you’re in then you’re in and you will be on our radar! In fact, the people who submit here will be our first point of call when we’re looking.

So if you want to freelance on some of the most exciting and challenging advertising work out there then you know what to do – hit that ‘apply’ button right now!
