Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India Alien Hours Full time ₹ 6,00,000 - ₹ 12,00,000 per year

At Alien Hours, we don't just create ads; we build visual experiences that land in the cultural zeitgeist. We specialize in high-concept campaigns, brand-defining films, and motion graphics that blur the line between advertising and art. We're seeking a visionary Senior Motion Designer who has not only mastered their craft but can also pilot a team of talented creatives into uncharted territories.

If you've led a team in the fast-paced world of advertising and your reel is a versatile collection of stories told through motion, you might be the alien we're looking for.

Your Mission (The Role):

You will be a dual-threat creative force: a hands-on master of motion and a strategic leader for our design team. You will be responsible for conceiving, pitching, and executing groundbreaking motion graphic projects from concept to final delivery. You will guide and inspire a team of designers, ensuring the work is not only visually stunning but also strategically sound and delivered flawlessly.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Creative Leadership & Vision: Lead the creative direction on motion projects, from initial mood boards and style frames to final animation. Provide clear, inspiring creative feedback to the team.
  • Team Mentorship & Management: Directly lead, mentor, and manage a team of motion designers and animators. Foster a collaborative, innovative, and high-performing team environment.
  • Project Piloting: Oversee multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring they are delivered on time, on budget, and to the exceptionally high standard our clients expect.
  • Hands-On Creation: Remain deeply hands-on. You will be expected to personally design and animate on key projects, especially high-profile brand films and campaign launches.
  • Client & Agency Collaboration: Work closely with Creative Directors, Art Directors, and clients to understand vision, present concepts, and articulate the rationale behind creative decisions.
  • Technical Excellence & Innovation: Push the technical and creative boundaries of motion design. Explore and integrate new techniques, software, and technologies to keep Alien Hours at the forefront of the industry.
  • Versatility: Seamlessly switch between diverse styles and project types, from sleek commercial advertising and explosive title sequences to thoughtful documentary graphics and experimental art pieces.

What You Bring (Qualifications):

  • 4+ years of professional motion design experience, with a significant portion spent in a creative or advertising agency environment.
  • Proven experience leading, mentoring, and managing a team of designers. You know how to get the best work out of your crew.
  • An exceptional portfolio that demonstrates a mastery of motion design principles, storytelling, and technical skill across a wide range of projects (advertising campaigns, film titles, broadcast graphics, etc.).
  • Expert-level proficiency in Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D (or other 3D software), and the Adobe Creative Suite.
  • A director's eye for composition, pacing, and narrative. You think in sequences, not just shots.
  • Outstanding communication and presentation skills. You can sell a big idea to a client and provide clear, constructive feedback to your team.
  • The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment while maintaining a cool, creative head.
  • A relentless curiosity and a passion for film, design, technology, and pop culture.
