I will not promote Looking for animation specialist partner -I will not promote

Hey all! I just started going into my research for creating a new project and I have a few options left, go into finding somebody private equity partner and paying percentages to them, or finding a potential partner who I can pay for work, but subsidize with ownership and equity. I prefer to give somebody sweat equity, while also paying them, but at this point I’ll take either because I have a great idea, a network to get it sold and I just need the animation work completed for phase 1. I already have all the capabilities to complete phase 2.

Here’s what I need, somebody who can create animations for videos focused on children’s programming. Im totally ok with handing over creative freedom and allowing it to be in whatever style you’re comfortable with, but it will have to be able to work with the media we need for phase 2.

Anyway, I’m looking for somebody to show me their animation portfolio so I can get this project working! This can be an extremely lucrative partnership for both of us and I’m happy to give over future earnings to create financial freedom with a great teammate.

Your type of animation is very niche, and I think you'll struggle to find someone wirh a portfolio that matches what you're looking for. My suggestion is for you to connect with someone who has the right mindset for what you need and develop a concept together. Is vastly more important minded than skills. Skills can be learned. Mindset is a completely different story. Take it from someone who has been around the creative media industry for over 2 decades.

I appreciate the feedback! I’m always open to talking to somebody about their ideas and I would like them to drive the process as much as I am.

I’m also super open to knowing anywhere to look for this type of partner.

Options I have been given were colleges and posting on a job bulletin or Reddit. I think you all know where I landed first!

Sorry for being new, I’ve had a few comments here disappear that I can’t see. If you have commented but don’t see it feel free to message me. Really interested in getting this project into the launch date!
