2D Game Animation Intern – AI-Powered EdTech Games | Fully Remote

We're hiring an animation intern to bring our game characters and UI to life. If you can make a character feel alive in two seconds of motion, turn a static screen into something that breathes, and make a wrong answer feel okay 😌 — we want to hear from you.

🎯 What You'll Do
  • 🐰 Animate game characters — idle loops, reactions, celebrations, transitions, and everything that gives a character personality

  • ✨ Create UI and feedback animations — screen transitions, correct/incorrect states, progress moments, micro-interactions

  • 🎮 Upgrade existing rough animations into polished, production-ready motion

  • 🌟 Design animation that serves learning — making correct answers feel rewarding and wrong answers feel safe to try again

  • 🎨 Help develop animation style references and motion guidelines for new game projects

  • 🤖 Explore AI animation tools to accelerate workflows and experiment with new techniques

🔍 What We're Looking For
  • ⏱️ Strong grasp of animation fundamentals: timing, spacing, squash & stretch, anticipation, follow-through

  • 🎬 Proficiency in animation software: Adobe Animate, After Effects, Spine, or Rive

  • 👁️ A keen eye for art direction — you know what looks right, what feels off

  • 👶 Sensitivity to animating for children: motion that's playful, encouraging, and never punishing

  • 🎮 Game feel awareness — your animations serve gameplay, not interrupt it

  • 🏇 Ability to work with minimal guidance — you take a brief and run with it!

⭐ Nice to Have
  • 🤖 Experience with AI animation tools or AI-assisted motion workflows

  • 🖌️ Illustration or character design ability

  • 📚 Prior experience animating for EdTech, children's products, or 2D games

  • 🔧 Understanding of animation implementation in game engines (Unity or any web-based framework)

🏢 Internship Details:
  • 💻 Remote-first work culture

  • 📆 6-month internship, with potential for full-time offer

  • 💸 Stipend: ₹20,000 – ₹30,000/month

  • 🚀 Chance to design real-world EdTech experiences used by millions
