Toronto, Canada Brown Bag Films Full time

At Brown Bag Films, our motto is simple: “We love animation.” In fact, we love it so much we trademarked it 'We Love Animation.’ We are one of the World’s most exciting, original and successful creative-lead animation studios with studios in Toronto, Dublin and Bali.
As a Posing Artist, you'll be responsible for refining the acting in scenes by creating robust, dynamic character drawings that would be challenging to accomplish by simply manipulating a character build. This exceptional position is designed for someone who lives to draw, someone who has a powerful eye for acting, and someone who enjoys pushing character animation past the boundaries of software

**Key Responsibilities**
- Improve acting and attitude in scenes where the storyboard drawings don’t fully support or do justice to the recorded dialogue
- Create strong drawings that push the expression, pose or perspective beyond the comfortable limits of the stock Flash build
- Establish poses that will be reused, whether throughout a sequence, episode or season
- Explore new characters - create a range of drawings that show new episodic characters in different expressions and attitudes
- Draw characters making contact with surfaces or one another
- Complete work within a rigorous production schedule with shifting daily deadlines
- Report directly to the Animation Director
- Work in collaboration with the other departments to ensure quality expectations and deadlines are met

**Key Requirements**
- Degree/Diploma from a recognized animation school desired
- Previous experience designing or animating for a 2D television series
- High level of proficiency in Flash preferred (we are willing to train strong, experienced Harmony animators)
- Strong sense of acting, staging, timing and posing
- Ability to multi-task and prioritize
- Drive, determination, creative problem-solving skills and a keen eye for detail
- Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment
- Effective and professional communication skills
- Why work with us?
