I am looking for a 2D character designer to put together some reference sheets and turnarounds for two goblin characters for a project I am working on. The project is a live action short horror film where the goblins will be animated. I was planning on having them as 3D animations but am thinking of switching to 2D animated characters for the purposes of originality and cost savings.
See [login to view URL] for more information. I have attached the designs that were created for the 3D models, but I am thinking that more simple designs (like those of Disney 2D characters) would be better for the 2D route. I am willing to consider anything at this point. I am looking for enough references that an animator would need for the two characters. This should include turnarounds plus several action references and poses and facial expressions to convey the characters' varied emotions.
If you can also act as animator on this project later, you will get extra special consideration. Please provide links to samples of your previous 2D character design work. Thanks
