Vector Illustrator needed A.S.A.P

Hi all,

I have a very interesting project that I’ll be Art Directing for Lonsdale/Satchi & Satchi(http://www.ethnonet.gold.ac.uk/illustrations/ch6illustrations/67Lonsdale/index.html)

Please forgive their website, the project is very mid to high end in presentation or else I would not be bidding for the job.

I am looking for an illustrator/animator that can produce visual work or a style like this - http://www.portfolios.com/about.html - The client is looking for this exact character design and the character must speak exactly like this lady in the link does.

The client has already presented roughs and a brief as to what the characters will look like and the project details. They are looking for 8 characters, female and male. All 8 characters will have to speak for about 45 seconds.

A few details about myself the Art Director -

My name is Steve Joseph and I have been doing multidisciplinary design for over 7 years now. I currently reside and work in the los angeles area. Please see my partial portfolio here - http://www.dlicht.com

**How I work with sub-contractors/freelancers -

**I am very professional in my undertakings and expect nothing short of this from persons contacting me concerning potential work. I am at a very sensitive stage of expanding my personal name and do not have time for situations that will conflict with my level of professionalism and integrity that goes into each job. I treat people fairly and the way I would like to have myself treated and remembered.

This being said. I work with professional format invoices, proposals, estimates and contracts. Upon approving a freelancer and having a signed contract returned from them, I pay 50% of your estimate’s price upfront. I do not work with clients that offer to pay less than 50% for any job and hence do not expect to work with freelancers that are professionals and do not understand why they should recieve 50% upfront to start a project.

I value your time, ability and skill and do not want persons working for free. Theres plenty of food drives, volunteer and charity work for that.

If you have an online portfolio, have no problems communicating via phone, IM, AIM or Skype and feel yourself to be the right candidate for this job and would like to start discussing details, please PM me or send me an email with your website URL and contact information so that we may further discuss this project and it’s details once I have checked out your past work.

Thank you for your time and I would appreciate any help in finding the right person for this job if you know of talent to which this maybe the right job.

Kind Regards,

Hetlicht - Steve Joseph
