Job Description

Motion Designer

Location: Remote
Employment Type: Part-time/Contract

About the Role

CROWN is looking for a Motion Designer who can turn strategy and storytelling into kinetic, scroll-stopping visuals. You’ll help define how ideas move — across campaigns, brands, and platforms — blending design, animation, and sound to create culture-driven work that feels alive.

You should be fluent in modern motion tools and trends, confident designing for social, digital, and experiential formats, and obsessed with craft. If you live somewhere between After Effects and Unreal Engine, and you get as much joy out of easing curves as color grading, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Do

  • Concept, design, and animate motion assets across campaigns, social, digital, and experiential formats

  • Collaborate with creative directors, designers, editors, and producers to bring brand stories to life through movement

  • Translate static brand systems into dynamic visual languages that adapt across platforms

  • Stay ahead of emerging motion, 3D, and generative design trends — from typography in motion to AI-assisted workflows

  • Design and animate for a variety of outputs: videos, reels, web, AR, and large-format installations

  • Manage multiple projects with precision, quality, and creative energy

What You Bring

  • 3–7 years of motion design experience (agency, studio, or in-house creative team)

  • Expert proficiency in Adobe After Effects, Premiere, Illustrator, and Photoshop

  • Familiarity with Cinema 4D, Blender, or Unreal Engine preferred

  • Strong understanding of animation principles, typography, and visual rhythm

  • Experience with sound design or motion-based storytelling a plus

  • Ability to deliver high-quality work under tight deadlines without sacrificing creativity

Nice to Have

  • Experience with 3D, generative, or interactive motion (Unreal, TouchDesigner, Runway, etc.)

  • Familiarity with social-first formats (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts)

  • Understanding of brand systems and how motion expresses identity

  • Curiosity about AI-enhanced tools and creative technology

You Are

  • A visual storyteller with taste, timing, and technical skill

  • Equal parts designer and problem solver

  • Constantly learning new tools, plug-ins, and workflows

  • Comfortable in collaborative creative environments — but self-motivated enough to take ideas all the way from sketch to export

  • Obsessed with the details: timing, sound, texture, energy
