I'm looking for someone to help assemble a 5-episode educational kids series called "Zayd & The Astrolabe" Everything else, like scripts, branding, and the whole production plan, is already set. I just need someone to put the videos together using AI tools.
This isn't a writing or creative role; it's all about execution.

Use ElevenLabs to create voiceovers.
Generate artwork with Midjourney or Leonardo.
Put the scenes together in CapCut, using the Ken Burns effect.
Add the provided music and sound effects.
Include captions.
Export the final videos.
Create thumbnails.
Make shorter cutdowns for Shorts.
Give me a CapCut template I can use again for future episodes.
I already have:
Five completed scripts.
Plans for the thumbnails.
Prompts for the thumbnails and artwork.
SEO titles and descriptions.
A complete production workflow.
Brand colors.
Lists of shots.
Markers for the Shorts cutdowns.
You'll need to follow the workflow exactly as it's laid out step-by-step.
The deliverables for this job include:
For the 5 episodes (about 4 minutes each):
Voiceovers.
Artwork for the scenes.
Putting the full videos together in CapCut.
Captions.
Music and sound effects.
The astrolabe transition effect.
Final export in 1080p.
For the 5 thumbnails:
Combine a Zayd pose with a background.
Add text.
Add an era badge.
Export as PNG.
For the 10 Shorts videos:
Pick two scenes from each episode.
Change the framing to 9:16.
Add text on top.
Export vertically.
Template:
Provide a CapCut project template that can be used for future episodes.
Skills needed:
Editing experience with CapCut or Premiere.
Experience using ElevenLabs for voice generation.
Experience with Midjourney or Leonardo for image generation.
Thumbnail design using Canva.
Basic understanding of YouTube content formatting.
Ability to follow detailed instructions.
Good communication and reliability.
Budget:
I'm offering $20–$200 and am open to hiring beginners if the quality is good. Please let me know your rate.
Timeline:
I'm looking to have the whole batch completed in 2–3 weeks.
How to apply:
Please answer these questions:
Have you used ElevenLabs, Midjourney/Leonardo, and CapCut before?
Can you follow a detailed, step-by-step process?
Share one or two examples of videos you've edited, whether AI-generated or for YouTube.
What part of this project are you most confident you can handle?
Are you okay with providing a reusable CapCut template?
Test Assignment:
Before I hire anyone, I'll ask you to do a small, paid test. This will involve generating one Zayd pose using my Style Anchor prompt, assembling a 10–15 second clip from Episode 1, adding captions, music, and the astrolabe transition. This is to make sure you understand the style and workflow.
Long-Term Possibilities:
If this initial batch goes well, there's potential for more work, including additional episodes, more Shorts, more thumbnails, and ongoing editing. This could lead to a long-term working relationship.
I run JiffyVFX, a VFX/animation brand with a large audience across YouTube, TikTok, and
Instagram. I create motion capture animation packs for the FAB Marketplace and Gumroad, as
well as CG/VFX animated shorts for my social channels.
What I need:
I’m looking for a mocap cleanup artist to take over the cleanup stage so I can focus more on
performance and production. This will start as a paid test batch of 3–5 animations, with the
potential for steady ongoing work if we’re a good fit.
● Clean up raw motion capture with a focus on feet, drift, pops, limb clipping, curve
smoothing, and especially hands/fingers.
● Retarget animation to different skeletons and rigs, mainly Blender Auto Rig Pro/Rigify,
UE5 Mannequin, Mixamo, and AccuRig.
● Make loops seamless for animation packs, closing the remaining gap on shots that are
already mostly there.
● Deliver files that work cleanly on the UE5 Mannequin rig.
PLEASE REVIEW THE EXAMPLES/REFERENCES LINKED BELOW!!
Source formats and workflow:
● Raw files may come in .bvh or UE5 Mannequin FBX, depending on the project.
● I use an OptiTrack mocap system.
● I can share a Loom walkthrough of my cleanup workflow if it helps.
Typical batch sizes:
● Pack work: around 30 to 100+ animations per batch.
● Shorts/content work: usually 3–10 animations per slate.
What I’m looking for in a freelancer:
● Strong mocap cleanup fundamentals.
● Comfortable in Blender and Unreal Engine 5; Maya, MotionBuilder, or Cascadeur are
also fine.
● Able to communicate reliably and work async to agreed deadlines.
● Can share examples of mocap cleanup work, ideally with before/after clips.
How to quote:
Please send either a per-animation rate for a loop-cleanup batch or a day rate, plus how many
animations you’d expect to clean per day. I’m open to your pricing and reasoning.
● Your software/rig experience
● Relevant mocap cleanup examples
● Typical turnaround for a batch of around 30 animations
Next steps:
If this first test batch goes well, there’s potential for recurring work on future packs and shorts.
I’m happy to collaborate through the platform and refine the process as we go.

Each video will include:

* Animated text and captions
* Stock footage and video clips
* Images and graphics
* Motion graphics and animations
* Sound effects and background music
* Smooth transitions and pacing that maximize viewer retention
The goal is to create videos that feel like mini documentaries or cinematic storytelling pieces - not simple slideshows.
What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience creating viral or high-retention short-form content
* Strong storytelling and pacing skills
* Excellent motion graphics and text animation abilities
* Ability to source appropriate stock footage, graphics, and imagery
* Experience with Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or similar software

3. The software you primarily use.
This has the potential to become an ongoing project for the right editor. We’re looking for someone creative who can help bring written stories to life in a way that keeps viewers watching until the very end.
Client's questions:
Random question: Are you a football (or soccer, for my Americans) fan? If so, who’s your favorite player and why? There are no wrong answers. You can say you’re not a fan or you hate sports, I don’t care. I’m just curious.

# Upwork Job Post
## Job Title
**AI Video Content Creator for High-Volume Platform Testing**
## Job Overview
We are looking for a hands-on video content creator to test an AI-assisted media creation platform through high-volume video production.
You will create fictional and synthetic video content using imaginary brands, products, characters, events, campaigns, and creative briefs. The content is being created to test the platform rather than for publication or a real client.
This is not a traditional software QA role. You will test the system by using it as a real video creator would: developing ideas, creating scenes, generating assets, revising outputs, maintaining character consistency, assembling videos, and completing projects through final export.
The primary goals are to:
* Produce a substantial volume of test videos
* Exercise the platform’s features and end-to-end workflows
* Identify usability problems and functional failures
* Document where the system helps or blocks the creative process
* Retest workflows after improvements are released
You must have practical video creation experience. Formal software testing experience is helpful but not required.
## What You Will Do
You will receive fictional creative briefs or create simple test briefs based on assigned scenarios.
For each project, you may be asked to:
* Develop a simple video concept
* Create fictional characters, products, services, or campaigns
* Select a visual style and format
* Generate scenes and video assets using our platform
* Create short-form and multi-scene videos
* Test character and visual consistency
* Add dialogue, voiceover, music, captions, or text where required
* Revise individual scenes
* Reuse approved characters or styles in later videos
* Create alternate versions and aspect ratios
* Save, reopen, edit, and export projects
* Document usability and functionality issues
* Retest previously reported issues after platform updates
The objective is not to make every video portfolio-quality. The objective is to complete realistic workflows at volume and determine whether the system is understandable, reliable, and practically useful for video creators.
## Types of Test Content
Projects may include:
* 5–15 second promotional videos
* 15–45 second social media videos
* Fictional product advertisements
* Character-led stories
* Short episodic series
* Product demonstrations
* Event promotions
* Educational or explainer videos
* Dialogue scenes
* Multilingual videos
* Videos adapted for different platforms and aspect ratios
* Multiple videos using the same approved character
* Projects created from both minimal and detailed briefs
All content will normally use fictional subjects. Do not use real people, protected characters, or real brands unless they are specifically provided for an approved test.
## Testing Responsibilities
You are not expected to diagnose technical causes or write engineering-level bug reports.
You are expected to identify and clearly document issues such as:
* A workflow that cannot be completed
* A feature that does not behave as expected
* Work being lost or not saved
* Characters changing unexpectedly between scenes
* Approved elements changing during a revision
* Instructions or controls that are unclear
* Excessive or repetitive steps
* Missing controls needed to complete a video
* Inconsistent output from repeated workflows
* Export, format, resolution, or aspect-ratio problems
* Situations where an outside tool is required to complete the project
* Technically completed output that is not practically usable
For each material issue, record:
* What you were trying to achieve
* The steps you took
* What you expected to happen
* What actually happened
* Whether the issue blocked completion
* Whether a workaround was available
* Whether the issue could be reproduced
* Supporting screenshots, recordings, or exported outputs
## Required Experience
Applicants should have:
* Practical video creation and editing experience
* Experience producing short-form digital or social video
* Ability to turn a basic brief into a complete video
* Understanding of scenes, pacing, continuity, framing, and storytelling
* Ability to produce content efficiently and consistently
* Strong attention to detail
* Ability to notice and explain workflow problems
* Ability to work independently
* Good written communication
* Ability to keep organized project and issue records
* Confidence learning a new creative platform
## Preferred Experience
Useful experience includes:
* AI video or image generation
* Prompt-based creative tools
* Character-led content
* Animation or motion graphics
* Synthetic media production
* Social media video production
* Beta testing or user acceptance testing
* Working with early-stage software
* Multilingual content creation
* High-volume content operations
Formal QA experience is not required. Strong hands-on video creation ability is more important.
## This Role Is Not
This is not primarily a:
* Social media management role
* Client campaign role
* Community management role
* Software engineering role
* Automated QA role
* Content moderation role
* Prompt-writing-only role
You are testing the platform, but the testing is performed by creating a large volume of realistic video projects.
## Deliverables
Expected deliverables will include:
* Completed synthetic video projects
* Exported video files
* Project references or project links
* Coverage of assigned workflows and features
* Brief notes for each completed project
* Clear reports for material issues
* Screenshots or recordings showing failures
* Retest results following platform updates
* Regular summaries of recurring usability and functionality problems
The engagement will begin with a paid trial. Ongoing production targets will be agreed after we establish realistic throughput for simple, standard, and more complex projects.
## Paid Trial
The initial paid trial will include:
1. Create one simple short-form video.
2. Create one multi-scene video.
3. Reuse the same character in a separate project.
4. Revise one scene without intentionally changing approved elements.
5. Export a project in two different formats or aspect ratios.
6. Document material usability and functionality issues.
7. Identify the most serious production blocker encountered.
8. Recommend one practical workflow improvement.
The trial will be assessed on:
* Ability to complete the assigned workflows
* Video creation competence
* Production speed and organization
* Quality of observations
* Clarity of issue documentation
* Ability to reproduce problems
* Understanding of how system behaviour affects video production
## Engagement
* **Contract type:** Hourly
* **Initial stage:** Paid trial
* **Potential duration:** Ongoing for successful creators
* **Work location:** Remote
* **Availability:** Please state your weekly availability
* **Rate:** Please include your proposed hourly rate
An hourly contract is preferred because the role combines production, iteration, issue documentation, and retesting.
## How to Apply
Please include:
1. A brief description of your video creation experience.
2. Links to two or three relevant video examples.
3. A clear explanation of which parts of those videos you personally created.
4. The video editing and AI media tools you have used.
5. Your weekly availability.
6. Your hourly rate.
7. Confirmation that you are comfortable producing fictional test content at volume.
8. Confirmation that you are comfortable documenting usability and functionality issues while creating videos.
Start your proposal with the words:
**VIDEO PLATFORM CREATOR**
This helps us confirm that you have read the full description.
## Upwork Screening Questions
### 1. What parts of the video production process do you normally complete yourself?
Please describe your involvement in concept development, asset creation, editing, sound, subtitles, and final export.
### 2. Which AI image, video, voice, or animation tools have you used?
Describe what you created with them and any limitations you encountered.
### 3. How would you document this issue?
You approved a character’s clothing and hairstyle. When you changed the facial expression in a later scene, the system also changed the clothing and hairstyle.
Explain what information you would record so that the problem could be understood and reproduced.
### 4. Are you comfortable producing a high volume of fictional test content rather than public-facing client work?
Explain how you would balance production speed with useful testing and documentation.

We are looking for an experienced Motion Graphics Designer to create a series of four animated videos in a modern collage style.
The desired visual direction combines cut-out photography, typography, graphic elements, textures, and smooth transitions. We are looking for animation quality and fluidity inspired by modern VOX-style explainer videos, while developing a distinctive visual identity for our project.
Project Scope
4 animated videos
Duration: approximately 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds per video
Modern collage-style motion design
Smooth, dynamic, and carefully crafted transitions
Integration of typography and on-screen text when relevant
Consistent visual direction across all four videos
Final delivery in high-resolution video format
The scripts for all four videos are already completed.
Production Process
The project will follow two main stages:
1. Storyboard and Visual Direction
Before starting the animation, the selected designer will create a detailed storyboard or visual storyboard for each video.
The storyboard should present:
The visual interpretation of each main idea
Proposed compositions and scenes
Collage elements, imagery, textures, and typography
The overall rhythm and visual progression
Key transitions between scenes
Each storyboard must be reviewed and approved by our team before the animation phase begins.
2. Animation Production
Once the storyboard is validated, the designer will produce the complete animation while respecting the approved visual direction.
The animations should feel modern, fluid, engaging, and professionally executed.
What We Will Provide
Our team will provide:
The final scripts
The recorded voice-over
Brand guidelines and available visual assets
References for the desired collage and motion graphics style
Feedback and creative direction throughout the project
Our internal team will handle:
Music
Sound effects
Audio mixing
Final mastering
The motion designer will therefore focus mainly on the visual conception, storyboard, and animation production.
Ideal Candidate
We are looking for someone with strong experience in:
Motion graphics
Collage-style animation
Editorial and explainer-video design
Typography animation
Visual storytelling
Smooth transitions and professional animation timing
Adobe After Effects
Strong attention to detail, communication, and the ability to translate a voice-over script into clear visual storytelling are essential.
Please include:
A short introduction about your experience
Links to similar projects you have created
Examples of collage-style animation or motion graphics
Your estimated timeline for completing the four videos
Your availability
Please share work that clearly demonstrates your ability to achieve the visual quality, fluidity, and modern collage style described above.
Create a simple Android demo that renders a high-quality upper-body GLB or VRM avatar.
You may use a model from your previous work or a legally available model from the internet. Please provide
the model source and license information.
The avatar should include:
- Natural talking motion
- Smiling and blinking
- Smooth head, neck, shoulder, and chest movement
- High-quality lighting, shadows, skin, hair, and eye rendering
- Smooth performance with optimized GPU, memory, and battery usage
No camera tracking, face detection, lip-sync detection, or other functionality is required. This task is only for
evaluating rendering quality, animation quality, and mobile performance.

We're a company in the warehouse automation and material handling space, and we're looking for an experienced 3D animator/video producer for an ongoing working relationship, not a one-off project.
We have a range of different technologies and equipment (automation systems, racking solutions, robotics, and related machinery), and we need a steady stream of professional 3D CGI explainer videos and animations produced to showcase them.
What we need:
Clean, realistic 3D renders of our products and systems (not live footage)
Videos that explain how the technology actually works, internal mechanisms, movement, how it interacts with warehouse environments, etc.
Labeled callouts, animated diagrams, or on-screen text to highlight key features and processes where useful
A professional, corporate look and feel consistent across all videos, similar to high end industrial product demo content
Ability to take a piece of technology (spec sheet, photos, existing rough footage, or a written brief) and turn it into a polished explainer animation
This is an ongoing need. We regularly add new equipment and technology and will need new videos produced on a recurring basis, so we're looking for someone (or a small team) who can become a long term production partner rather than a single-project hire.
Ideal experience:
Strong portfolio in industrial/technical 3D animation, not just general motion graphics
Comfortable with Cinema 4D, Blender, 3ds Max, or similar, plus rendering tools like KeyShot or V-Ray
Experience visually explaining mechanical or engineering concepts
Bonus: experience in warehouse, logistics, robotics, or heavy equipment industries
Ability to work efficiently and maintain consistent style/quality across multiple videos over time
Reference: I'll share a link to a video that reflects the style and quality level we're aiming for.

I’m building a small mobile game called “Sea Explorer” and need a set of clean, minimalistic vector fish drawn in Adobe Illustrator. The notion board ( https://app.notion.com/p/Sea-Explorer-838568d0537f82eaa8c68145185c2881 ) shows every species already chosen; feel free to click through each card to see inspiration graphic and personality references.
AI is forbidden. If I wanted to make it with AI, I know how to make it myself, I wouldn't be asking for a hire :)
Scope
• choose one or more of different fish species
• Each fish delivered as an .ai file, layered and ready for easy colour tweaks as vectors
• Tropical, vibrant palette that still reads well over a dark-blue ocean background
• Simple three-frame swim cycle per fish (so three Illustrator artboards per species)
This is a test to find the graphic designer for my projects and to then hire them for the full project so give it your best. ALL AI ENTRIES ARE DISCARDED, I HAVE AN AI DETECTION TOOL.
