I need to animate a logo

Contest Brief

I am looking for a skilled animator who can bring my 3D image to life. It is a a sillouette drawing that I want to use in connection with a song I wrote for my daughter that will play at her wedding. I am attaching the image here. Basically, I want the characters (the father, the bride-daughter and the image of when the daughter was a little girl ) to appear to be dancing a slow dance together. The little girl should move and dance within the older version of herself so it's clear to the viewer it is really the same person (just young and old versions both visible). If you can make them slow dance, maybe make slow circular movements and generally replicate a slow dance that would be awesome. The song is about four and a half minutes but I'm sure the animation can be less time and I can make it repeat. This will function as a youtube backround for the song so listeners have something interesting to look at while they listen

- The animation should be in a 3D style, giving depth and dimension to the drawing.
- I have a clear vision for how I want the logo to be animated, and I can provide specific details and examples to guide the process.
- The animated logo will be primarily used for social media platforms, so it should be engaging and attention-grabbing in a short time frame.

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in 3D animation software and techniques.
- Strong understanding of motion design principles and the ability to bring static logos to life.
- Experience creating animations for social media platforms, with a focus on capturing and retaining viewer attention.
- Ability to work collaboratively and incorporate feedback to ensure the final product meets my vision and objectives.

Employer Feedback

“Working with Armando exceeded all of my expectations. He is a gifted artist that not only put his heart and soul into his deeply evoking illustration for my daughter's wedding, but he was able to put MY heart and soul into it as well. I had him on a tight deadline for the wedding weekend and I know he worked tirelessly to create a gift that my daughter and I will treasure for our lifetimes- possibly through the lives of their children and further down the line, still. God bless you Armando for your expression of love, the mild angst of an aging father , and his relief that the man she married is a good man with strength, modesty and a heart of gold that I easily embrace as a son. What more could a father ask. What better way could it have been conveyed? Armando matched my song with crystal perfection. And now all of us are in the mix. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ”

    Right now I think #24 where Dad walks onto the scene is the one to beat -- I'm assuming that anyone participated can lengthen to about 30 seconds and incorporate a dance between the father and daughter (with the little girl inside) and if possible to animate them moving in a circle for part of that - well - I'll definately be sold. I'm getting bits and pieces of these elements, but none of them as a whole.

    OK I see my description may be off since the drawing is 2d not 3d.so yes I'd like to bring that to life as much as possible. If it remains 2d as long as the dance moves are realistic that would be awesome. If you have a metronome the pace or beats is set to 70

      Is it gonna be worth the wait? LOL? Look at #15 . He's got the right idea. But no one has committed to a number of seconds of animation duration. I think maybe 10-15 seconds is reasonable ? I don't know what's involved in doing it though.

    What is making my choice difficult is most of you are using almost identical 3 or 4 second animation which looks more like the father and daughter are "being introduced to each other" than actual slow dancing. Where is the embrace that dancers do? His hands respectfully around her waist? A circular movement made by the dancers? Maybe even a dip? I need to know the proposed length of your animation? While I dont need four minutes of it before it starts to repeat I'd like to have like twenty seconds if possible.

      son pocos segundos porque es generado con IA, no cierre el concurso que algunos si estamos haciendo la animcion con las especificaciones que proporciona y esto lleva tiempo.

    Artists please look at Enbtry #15 - he's got the right idea. Notice Dad has his arm around daughter's waist? I like the idea of starting with them with just one hand connected like in the illustration and then animating to entry #15 and maybe dancing in a circle. Is it reasonble to give me like 10-15 seconds of animation before it repeats? But #15 is the one to beat.

      I would like the animation of thst exact image (or if not exact something close to it. Is it possible for the animation to change from 2d to 3d and then it would be fine if you used different 3d models if true to the characters (father, daughters - young version of daughter inside)

    Arturo unfortunately the music is still being recorded. But it is like a slow moving ballad or children's lullaby.
