We’re looking for a Motion Designer who understands the dynamics of slot creatives, knows how to work within the visual style of specific games, can build simulated gameplay mechanics from scratch, and delivers performance creatives that work across platforms.
This is not a general motion design role. We need someone with a real feel for iGaming — who can take a slot’s assets, reconstruct its mechanics convincingly in After Effects, and build a creative that hooks a player in the first two seconds and holds them through to the CTA.
🎬 What you’ll be doing
Slot & casino creatives
- Create advertising motion creatives for slots, casino, and gaming products
- Develop video content that matches the visual style of specific games and providers
- Work with existing gameplay footage: edit, accelerate pace, highlight winning moments, add visual and sound effects
- Build simulated slot mechanics from a game’s graphic assets independently
- Assemble fake gameplay scenes from available assets when source footage doesn’t include the required mechanic
Gameplay animation
- Animate reel spins and stops, symbol drops, winning combinations, and UI reactions
- Create winning scenarios: Wild fills, Cascades, Expanding Wilds, Multipliers, Free Spins, Bonus Games, Jackpots, and other bonus features
- Build narrative arc within the mechanic: spin → near miss → needed combination → bonus activation → big win
- Animate win lines, symbol highlights, win counters, balances, buttons, messages, and other slot UI elements
Performance creative production
- Create animated advertising elements: bonus blocks, CTAs, countdown timers, ticker lines, pop-up messages, and end screens
- Integrate marketing offers into creatives so they remain visible and readable without conflicting with gameplay
- Adapt creatives across formats: 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, and others
- Localise materials for different GEOs and languages
- Produce A/B test variations: different hooks, scenarios, offers, CTAs, mechanics, pacing, and visual emphasis
- Prepare final deliverables in line with the technical requirements of advertising platforms
🎯 What we’re looking for
- 3+ years of commercial experience in motion design
- Hands-on experience creating advertising creatives in gaming or iGaming
- Portfolio that includes slot creatives, gameplay work, and gaming UI animation
- Strong proficiency in Adobe After Effects
- Confident in Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and Illustrator
- Skills in 2D animation, compositing, masking, rotoscoping, tracking, and effects work
- Experience with motion typography and UI element animation
- Proficiency with Expressions in After Effects: timers, counters, automated text blocks, and repeating animations
- Understanding of slot mechanics: Reels, Paylines, Wild, Scatter, Cascades, Multipliers, Free Spins, Bonus Game, Jackpot
- Ability to create a visually convincing gameplay simulation from individual graphic assets
- Understanding of performance creative principles: strong hook in the first seconds, fast pacing, clear narrative arc, readable offer, and a clear CTA
- Ability to combine gameplay, advertising offer, and supporting elements naturally within a single frame
- Understanding of composition and safe zones in vertical mobile-first formats
- Ability to adapt a single creative across aspect ratios without mechanical cropping or losing key elements
- Understanding of localisation specifics: text length, typography, currencies, number formats, and GEO nuances
- Strong sense of timing, rhythm, transitions, and sound design
- High attention to detail: offer accuracy, language, amounts, currencies, names, icons, and CTAs
- Ability to work independently from a brief and references — and to propose solutions when details are missing
⭐ Nice to have
- Familiarity with popular slots, gaming providers, and their characteristic visual styles
- Experience building simulated slot mechanics from scratch
- Skills in Blender or Cinema 4D
- Experience creating 3D elements and integrating them into 2D compositions
- Experience using AI tools for generating or preparing graphics, video, or voice-over
- Ability to analyse creative performance data and apply it to the next iteration
- Experience building templates and systems for scaling creatives across offers, languages, and GEOs
- Experience mentoring designers or conducting internal creative reviews
📁 What we want to see in your portfolio
- Motion creatives for gaming or iGaming products
- Examples of work with existing gameplay footage
- Examples where you independently assembled fake gameplay from separate assets
- Reel animation, slot symbols, winning and bonus combinations
- Work featuring Wild, Scatter, Free Spins, Multipliers, Cascades, or Bonus Game mechanics
- Vertical performance videos for advertising
- Creatives with bonus offers, CTAs, UI elements, and end screens
- Adaptations of the same material across multiple formats
- Where possible — A/B variations with a brief note on your role in each project
During portfolio review, be ready to explain which parts of each video were source gameplay and which mechanics, animations, and UI elements you built yourself.
