Job Description

WHO WE ARE

We’re Hook—an award-winning creative content agency. With a collaborative, maker-centric team, and an emphasis on production-led design, we make ads, campaigns, and experiences that drive growth for the world’s most innovative brands.

Our mission is to integrate creative and production to help grow brands faster. But we believe what’s most important are the people who work with us and the experience they have along the way. We want clients to think of us as the best agency they’ve ever worked with, and we want everyone at Hook to feel like this is the best job they’ve had yet.

WHAT’S A SENIOR MOTION DESIGNER AT HOOK?

Senior Motion Designers are passionate animators who bring visuals and narratives to life through their expert knowledge of animation principles, their proficiency with motion design and video editing tools, and their ability to lead complex projects. They utilize their understanding of the craft and inquisitive nature to elevate the motion work done at Hook, while always learning and growing their skills.

Senior Motion Designers work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team, consisting of visual designers, producers and creatives. They use their motion expertise to help the team solve creative and technical challenges. On small projects they may be the sole motion designer while on larger projects they might provide guidance and oversight to additional animators.

Within the Motion Department, Senior Motion Designers are looked to as role models and standard-bearers for work-quality and professionalism. They actively participate in training and mentoring more junior designers, and they seek to build and uphold our growth-oriented culture.

As most of this team and the client are based on the West Coast, this person must be able to be available to work around PST hours.

  • Collaborate with the Design and Creative teams to ensure motion projects exceed client expectations, demonstrating the ability to provide an informed perspective on how motion design can solve a brand’s strategic challenges.
  • Delegate tasks and help to oversee other motion designers on complex projects
  • Leverage knowledge of animation, editing and post-production tools to consistently produce top-quality work
  • Demonstrate an ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously under tight deadlines
  • Respond to client and creative feedback with thoughtful solutions that solve the underlying creative challenges
  • Become proficient in the tools and workflows Hook uses on a daily basis
  • Communicate clearly and frequently with teammates to maintain project cohesion
  • Seek out opportunities to enrich our existing culture within the department and organization.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

  • A thorough understanding of the 12 Principles of Animation
  • The proven ability to lead small teams of animators on complex projects
  • Expert proficiency in After Effects and Premiere
  • Working knowledge of  Cinema 4D and 3D workflows, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Figma
  • Deep knowledge of various video & audio formats and when to use them
  • A thorough understanding of project management and motion production workflows
  • A strong motion reel or portfolio that demonstrates your abilities as an animator and video editor
  • An outlook that embraces challenges and new methods of thinking
  • A friendly, collaborative attitude
