Block key character movements and poses to support dialogue and performance.
Work with camera and composition to ensure characters are staged effectively.
Maintain character proportions, scale, and continuity between scenes.
Identify and resolve staging or continuity issues before animation.
Work with Animation Directors, and Supervisors to address notes and make revisions.
Follow production schedules, pipelines, and file standards.

Requirements

What You’ll Bring:

Experience in character layout in 2D traditional animation production.
Strong understanding of character posing, staging, composition, and visual storytelling.
Ability to interpret storyboards, animatics, and dialogue.
Good understanding of animation principles and how layout supports animation.
Strong attention to character proportions, positioning, and continuity.
Ability to work efficiently within production deadlines.
