Freelance 2D Artists, Game Cinematics
Silver Monkey Studio is assembling a small senior team for a stylised 2D cinematic project in games. This is a short-term freelance engagement running through August 2026, fully remote, and limited to artists working within European time zones.
The project calls for expressive character work, painterly environments, and strong narrative atmosphere. We handle coordination and creative direction internally, so you would be working in a focused, low-friction setup with direct communication and clear feedback.
We are looking for experienced 2D artists who can contribute in one or more of the following areas: animation, storyboard and layout, background painting, cleanup, FX, compositing, and finishing.
You should have strong draftsmanship, solid timing, a good sense of acting and continuity, and real experience delivering frame-by-frame work within a professional production pipeline. This is a senior freelance engagement, so we are looking for people who can work confidently, communicate clearly, and deliver reliably within a structured production.
Experience with game cinematics, narrative animation, or cutscene work is a strong plus.
To apply, please submit your CV, portfolio, and any relevant reel or password-protected work through our careers page:

If your background is especially relevant to 2D cinematic work, mention that clearly in your submission.
