Pixel Artist (2D Game Art / Animation)

Job Title: LibreSprite Expert

Job Type: Contract

Location: Remote

Job Summary

We’re looking for a Pixel Artist who enjoys creating animations and wants to be part of something a bit different.

In this role, you’ll not only build high-quality pixel art and animations, but also help train AI by sharing how you think and work. You’ll capture parts of your creative process and explain your decisions- helping shape how AI understands real-world artistic workflows.

If you enjoy working independently, experimenting with animation, and breaking down your process, this is a great fit.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Create pixel art assets and animations from concept to final export
2. Design sprites, tilesets, UI elements, and other 2D game assets
3. Animate characters and objects using standard pixel art workflows
4. Capture your workflow (screen recording and/or written/voice explanations)
5. Explain your creative decisions, techniques, and approach in a clear way
6. Collaborate with a remote team and follow simple project guidelines

Required Skills and Qualifications:

1. Strong experience with pixel art and animation
2. Comfortable using tools like LibreSprite, Aseprite, or similar
3. A portfolio that shows your pixel art and animation work
4. Ability to work independently and manage your own tasks
5. Clear communication — able to explain how and why you create things

Preferred Qualifications:

1. Experience creating assets for games or interactive projects
2. Familiarity with sprite sheets, tilesets, and animation workflows
3. Experience recording tutorials, walkthroughs, or explaining your work
4. Interest in AI, creative tools, or emerging tech
