About the position Developer tools startup hiring a freelance motion designer to produce a kinetic typography product commercial. Two deliverables: a 30-second version for cold outbound and social, and a 60-second version for the website hero and investor pitch. The tone is quiet and editorial, closer to Stripe Press or Linear than a typical SaaS explainer. Full shooting script and brand assets provided. One revision round included. What you'll do Produce 30-second and 60-second kinetic typography commercials from a provided shooting script. Generate voiceover using ElevenLabs with specific voice parameters (Charlotte or Alice, stability 50, similarity 75, style 30). Include both voice options in the first draft for selection. Source a commercially licensed ambient piano track (Epidemic Sound, Artlist, or equivalent) and provide the license documentation in the final delivery. Reference artists: Nils Frahm, Hammock, Olafur Arnalds. Match a specific brand palette: #0b0a09 warm black, #f3f0eb bone white, #c4756b rose accent. No other colors. Use IBM Plex Mono for captions and Cormorant Garamond for display headers. Both available free from Google Fonts. Burn in captions for muted-autoplay use on social platforms. Use provided source material (terminal recordings, PR screenshots, dashboard HTML file). No stock footage. Export both versions at 1920x1080 high bitrate for social media embed. 30 second version ends with a call to action and URL. 60 second version ends on logo only with no CTA. Reference videos for tone and pacing: Will share links after hire. Think editorial product videos from infrastructure software companies, not animated explainers or traditional ads. Timeline 7 days from hire to final delivery, including one revision round. How to apply Share 2-3 portfolio examples of kinetic typography or product video work that match the editorial tone described above. Generic reels without motion graphics work will not be considered. Reference the Stripe Press or Linear tone in your proposal to confirm you understand the brief.
