We’re system thinkers first, designers second, marketers third. All of our clients come from our reputation. We do 0 sales, 0 marketing, 0 outbound. They come to us because they know us. We build what we believe in, in the truest sense. A decentralised, permisionless future, that’s beautiful.
Also, we move fast asf.
Your Role (Should You Choose to Accept It):
We’re looking for a Motion Designer who can breathe life into stories through motion. You’re fluent in After Effects, compositing, video editing, and you know how to make visuals feel effortless.
From high-concept branding animations to crisp, dynamic UI motion, you’ll shape how things move, feel, and flow. You’ll be a part of our Production Department, crafting motion that enhances storytelling and interaction. This role is more than just making things look cool — you’ll be defining the movement language of entire ecosystems.
Having expertise in 3D, sound design, or 2D frame-by-frame animation is a major plus. One or more of these skills will be crucial in pushing our creative output to the next level.
You’ll be responsible for (Day-Day):
Motion Language: Develop smooth, intentional motion that enhances design and storytelling.
After Effects Wizardry: Animate, composite, and create stunning sequences.
Editing & Post: Cut, refine, and bring videos to life with precise timing.
3D Integration: Leverage 3D elements to add depth and realism to motion projects.
System Thinking: Establish reusable motion patterns and guidelines.
Deep Collaboration: Work with branding, UI, and product teams to integrate motion seamlessly.
Experimentation: Push creative boundaries with new techniques and styles.
How we work
All of us are makers, none of us are managers. Therefore we work on the maker schedule.
We have 2 set meetings a week, 1 on monday, 1 on thursday.
We value flow, deep work, and individual impact. You won’t get a barrage of messages or notifications during the middle of the day.
Everything is based on value, not time. You know how to manage this best, so we let you manage it yourself.
We do have extra meetups, collobarative sessions, and lots of time in figma, are.na, throughout the week.
Ultimately, we believe the best way to become great at something, is to practice it over and over again in different contexts.
Values:
Individuality > Tribal identity
Narrative > Reality
Focus > Scatterdness
Detail > Time
Self-direction > Management
