We are looking to hire an expert to perform the following jobs for our website which is in the progress of being built:

1) Develop three cartoon characters for us- a cool/hip young man and a beautiful girlfriend with a cute pet (this can be a dog, pet squirrel, or even a random exotic pet)--- but the animal needs to be catching something in the air (like how dogs play catch in the park) --- we will need a version of this for our main website (logo, pages, etc).

2) Develop a 1 minute introduction video (using those characters) similar to:

We are looking to build a long term relationship with you as we will want to come back to you to do further videos in the future-----a good price with a long term relationship will be beneficial for both parties!

Please bid and PM me:
1) examples of the characters you have developed
2) examples of flash videos (2D/3D/Flash/etc) that you have completed
3) give me an example of what kind of character you will make for us---- we will of course discuss this further and in more detail once you are chosen for the job!

30% on the start of the project then released when 50% work is complete.
30% released when 100% work is completed
remaining released when i get all the source files with final edits and full copyright ownership.

[if you would like to have other terms... please do specify in your PM]

Looking forward to working with you!
