Our unique product is highly customizable - it can be used for use cases ranging from very simple to highly complex. As our new Motion Graphics Designer, it will be your job to oversee the quality and progress of motion graphics content that educates, inspires, and entertains current and future ClickUp users! You will collaborate with our Creative Team at all levels of the production pipeline, spanning from early ideation through final output and versioning.

A perfect candidate is composed of several traits. You have an excellent eye for creating beautiful motion graphic visuals. On top of being highly creative, you also have a strong technical understanding of effective video workflows and file specifications required for different mediums. You are ready to be challenged and be the go-to person for raising our video content from good to excellent through fine-tuning and precise attention to detail.

ClickUp's Motion Graphics Designer will understand what makes GREAT content. You understand the balance between following brand guidelines and being able to infuse creative flare into iterations without going too far "outside the lines". Hearing the terms "Graph Editor" and "expressions" instills excitement; not intimidation. And you have a POV on how motion can be used to bring a story to life.

• Experience designing storyboards specifically for 2D motion graphics projects
• Experience prepping exports for a variety of media formats spanning from broadcast to custom digital billboard signage and everything in between
• Have basic audio editing and mixing capabilities. You will understand audio workflows and ideally have experience working with audio professionals.

• Knowledge of Vimeo, YouTube, Facebook, and other social-based upload and sharing efforts.
• A great eye for detail and a proactive approach to addressing those details
• Ability to thrive in our fast-paced, ever-changing environment
• Ability to work equally well independently with little direction and in a tightly collaborative environment

Desirable:

• Power user of project management software and other productivity tools to understand our customers' pain points.
• Experience with UI design tools (i.e. Figma, Adobe XD)
• 3D Modeling and animation experience a plus (Cinema 4D, Blender, Maya)
