@DisneyGirl

There are few places in Abuja to get steady work as a 3D animator in Abuja. However I would recommend @zpixel's offer. I know he's someone who values animators so that's a good place to start and is focused on creating innovative projects. Which is quite difficult in the Nigerian context. We're not doing that much 3D work at our studios for now but feel free to drop by when you are in town. We're one of the few dedicated animation studios in Abuja.

All the best with your search.

@adamuW, thnx a lot 4 yr reply , i have some problem in my visa that's why i'm late replyin' and sending my resume and work. Anyway, where r u located? I saw a part of bino and fino. Good job. Are u working in 2d animation only?

Thanks. We're in Abuja too. We do work both in 2D and 3D but we're focusing on the Bino and Fino project so we've been using mainly 2D methods.

Apologies for the late reply. It's been very hectic recently. We can't afford to have a graphic designer in house at the moment. Since we don't really deal with print, I don't of any companies that you could apply to in Abuja. I'll still keep thinking about it. Actually there's one company called Peshter that do printing that spring to mind. Google them. Of course there's the option to go freelance. AS it's Abuja, there are many international and government institutions you can pitch to as well.
Wish I could be of more help.

@AdamuW.

Do you guys use ToonBoom for your animations?I am learning ToonBoom at the moment and I gather its the new industry standard with series like Fantastic Four,Avatar and some others.

I am working on a fan animation of Dead Fantasy.

You can see my animations here-

Great work with Bino & Fino.It looks like cutout animation with animated bones.I am more into frame by frame.I am thinking of starting something soon with African superheros stuff.

@Melvi Hi. I don't want to derail @Disnegirl's thread too much so I'll keep it short. I started a thread for the making of Bino and Fino. So I might bump that up again. But you are pretty much correct in your assessment of our technique for this project.

We know Toon Boom but haven't used it much. We're using Anime Studio, Adobe CS suite and some good old sketch books and crayons. We're fans of all types of animation. But I decided we use the collage cut out style for this animation for creative and logistical reasons.

Will check out your youtube page. All the best.

Again apologies to @Disneygirl for the derailing of your post. Off head I guess your main targets should be architectural, engineering and maybe some real estate firms. I'd also check out @zpixel to see what he has to say. I have no issue with meeting you for an interview and assessing your work to see if we could use you in any way shape or form.
