2D Animator/Editor Needed for Children's YouTube Series

I am developing a long-term animated YouTube series for children and am looking for a 2D character animator/video editor who can eventually work on regular 5–7 minute episodes. Before starting full episodes, I would like to produce a 1-minute paid test scene using our actual characters and story. I will provide: Character designs/reference sheets Written script and dialogues Scene/background references Story and character direction The freelancer will create the complete 1-minute scene, including: Character animation and expressions Natural interaction between characters Voice creation from the written dialogues Lip-sync Scene composition Sound effects/ambience Final editing What is most important: I am not looking for a collection of independently AI-generated clips. The characters must remain consistent from shot to shot — face, hairstyle, clothes, proportions and overall appearance should not change. The animation does not need to be 3D or highly cinematic. A clean, attractive and well-finished 2D / rigged / cut-out / limited-animation style is completely suitable. AI-assisted tools are welcome where useful, but the final result should feel like one coherent animated production, not separate AI-generated shots. Long-term opportunity This is intended to become a recurring series with the same characters, locations and reusable assets. If the 1-minute test works well, the next step will be a complete 5–7 minute episode, followed by regular episodes if the collaboration works. I am therefore particularly interested in animators who can create reusable character rigs/assets and an efficient production workflow that becomes faster over time.
