    Job Description


    Mikros Animation is seeking talented Mid Animation Artist with a passion for performance, action, and design. In our fast-paced production environment, you'll collaborate closely with a creative team under the guidance of the Animation Leads to help bring the Director's vision to life.

    We are committed to delivering high-quality animation and memorable performances. Our current project offers a variety of fun and creative challenges in a supportive, team-driven atmosphere.

    Responsibilities

    • Create engaging, feature-quality keyframe animations for assigned shots.
    • Develop expressive facial animation and solid body mechanics, both realistic and stylized.
    • Collaborate with Animation Leads and the Director to achieve the intended performance and storytelling.
    • Work according to production deadlines and deliver animations on schedule.
    • Participate in daily reviews and animation rounds, actively integrating feedback.
    • Contribute to shared resources, such as animation libraries and rig improvements.

    Qualifications

    • Professional experience in 3D character animation using Maya on animated feature films or TV series.
    • Strong understanding of body mechanics and character performance.
    • Ability to interpret storyboards and respond effectively to Director feedback.
    • Familiarity with production pipelines and adaptability to custom tools.
    • Knowledge of ShotGrid (formerly Shotgun) and RV is an advantage.
    • A good eye for cartoony animation and creative exaggeration, with the confidence to "bend the rules" to serve the story.
    • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset.

    Optional Skills

    • Experience in 2D animation and/or strong drawing/design skills.
    • Knowledge of scripting or rigging.
    • Bilingual (English/French) is a plus.

    Additional Information


    The person in this role will work closely with our Paris studio in a bilingual environment, as well as with international partners, talent, and clients. They will regularly interact with non-French-speaking stakeholders across various productions and strategic communications, in order to present and promote the creative and technical strengths of Mikros Animation on a global scale.
