We’re looking for a 2D/3D Motion Designer to join us in our Stockholm office on the island of Södermalm (the team is currently working fully remotely due to the covid-19 situation).

As a Motion Designer at 14islands you’ll be hands-on designing and animating creative experiences. Within project teams, you’ll design motion concepts, imagine 3D scenes and produce video content for digital brands and immersive websites.

Motion design and 3D are key ingredients for every project at 14islands and bridge the gap between visual design and technology. You’ll work closely with our design and development teams and be part of projects from kick-off to launch.

While motion design is key for this role, UI/UX skills are highly appreciated. You’ll definitely get the chance to apply your skills and grow as a designer.

What we’re looking for:

  • A creative mind that loves to explore graphics.
  • Experience producing motion design, character animation and prototypes.
  • 3D model & animation skills.
  • Video editing skills.
  • Firm understanding of UI and UX best practices.
  • Interest in technology and enjoyment of working closely with developers.
  • Capability to see the big picture while putting attention to the details.
  • Organization skills and ability to work within project constraints (goals/timelines/budget).
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in the digital field. If you’re a rookie but have an amazing portfolio, you should apply either way.
  • Knowledge of After Effects, Premiere, Blender or C4D and Figma. Bonus points for Spine.
