Hire the best 2D character designers

A 2D Character Designer is a pre-production artist who draws the visual blueprints for characters used in 2D animation, television, or mobile games. Responsibilities include:

• Designing characters that are simple enough to be drawn thousands of times by animators.
• Creating standardized "Model Sheets" with specific proportion guides.
• Designing mouth charts for lip-syncing reference.

2D Designers use digital drawing and vector tools. Key entities include:

• Toon Boom Harmony (Designing directly within the animation software).
• Adobe Photoshop or Animate.
• Shape Economy (Designing with easily animatable geometry).
• Turnaround Drafting (Drawing perfect 360-degree views).

While a 3D Character Designer sculpts highly detailed models that the computer rotates, a 2D Character Designer must draw the character with simplistic line efficiency so it can be manually redrawn from every angle by hand.
