UNDERSTAND YOUR REQUIREMENTS ► Both 2D and 3D animation have their own style and scope, so hiring animators based on your requirements is a must. When you plan to hire multimedia animation artists in India, you should look for candidates who have the desired skill set and experience. ► Multimedia animators are required for various types of projects, including music videos, explainer videos, or for social media posts. So, it is important that you thoroughly analyze what your requirement is before you dive into the hiring process. ► If the job description or brief is right, finding good animators won’t be an issue. However, no one would be interested to work on your animation project if your brief is vague. You will end up wasting valuable time and money interviewing the wrong candidates. www.virtualemployee.com

SCRUTINIZE WORK PROPERLY ► If you are planning to hire multimedia animation artists in India, evaluation of a completed animation task is vital. The elements of motion should look pleasing and smooth. This means that movement of various animated characters used should be wellsketched so that they are aesthetically appealing. ► For hand-drawn animation, you should look into the artistic skills of the animator. The movements and transitions should be smooth and not choppy. Check out if the movements of the characters look natural. A trained multimedia animation artist will pay more attention to movements where animated characters bend at slightly odd angles. ► For all forms of animation tasks, you should evaluate if the artist has the basic sense of color. If an animation sample task is done by a team, check only those parts that were worked on by the potential candidate. www.virtualemployee.com

CHECK ANIMATOR’S ABILITY TO EXAMINE TASKS IN DETAIL ► Being able to pay attention to detail is one of the top-most pre-requisites of an animator. An animation expert will spend the required time to examine and ensure that everything is going fine in an animation project. Examining every little detail is a must for an animator project to be glitch-free. ► A sound multimedia artist will be very skillful in drawing and sketching. Try to understand their story-telling skills when you go through their portfolio or samples.
