• Great knowledge of After Effects
• Art theory basics is a requirement i.e: composition and color theory

Bonus Skills:

• Understanding or experience with 3D is a bonus
• Social media savvy
• Experience in the production of content for user acquisition

+ Super organised and professional

+ A good communicator
