Illustrator needed for designing and animated web series

The Personal Excellence Institute is a Non-profit organization that teaches Teens and adolescent children lessons in Mind, Body and Spirit. We are currently developing a blended learning experience designed to give young people their own transformative moments as they explore and grow in the teachings of wellbeing. We are currently developing and animated web series and are looking to hire Illustrators who are experts with character design and/or world building. The ideal candidates will have a high-level of experience working in the Adobe Creative Suite and be proficient in Photoshop and/or Illustrator. Once the characters are designed we are planning to animate them as digital puppets so we will also need to generate assets for each character such as full character turnarounds, eye movements, facial expressions, etc. The world that these characters inhabit will also need to be designed so landscape and perspective skills will be very important. If a candidate has experience working in Cinema 4D that will be a huge plus!
