BSSP is an independent creative agency built on the belief that the best work comes from people who push each other, and push past the obvious. We're collaborators first: strategists, creatives, producers and analysts working side by side, because great ideas rarely come from one desk. We bring a challenger mindset to everything we make, questioning assumptions (including our own) to find a sharper answer. And we're ambitious, for our clients' brands, for the work, and for each other's growth. If that sounds like how you like to work, we'd love to meet you.

We're hiring Animators, full-time in El Segundo, CA and freelance remote from California, to bring our social content to life and keep a high volume of deliverables moving. The work ranges from simple, punchy motion for social posts to the steady, detail-driven job of resizing and versioning assets across every platform and spec. You'll turn approved creative into scroll-stopping motion, collaborating closely with Creative and Production, bringing the ambition to make even a quick cutdown feel crafted, and the challenger mindset to suggest a smarter way to build it.

• Create simple, polished animations for social posts, stories, reels and short-form video from approved creative
• Animate type, logos, product shots and graphic elements with clean timing and easing
• Build short cutdowns and loops (6s, 15s, GIF) optimized for each platform
• Add motion to static layouts to lift engagement without overcomplicating the design
• Follow brand guidelines and motion standards so every piece feels on-brand
• Export to platform specs for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and paid social

• Resize and reformat animated and static assets across aspect ratios (1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9) and placements
• Version master files for different copy, offers, languages or end cards
• Adapt layouts so key messages and logos stay legible and safe in every format
• Meet file size, length and format specs for each platform and media partner
• QA every export before it ships, catching typos, timing issues and spec misses
• Keep project files organized, named and archived so anyone on the team can pick them up

• Partner with Art Directors and Designers to interpret creative intent and bring it to life in motion
• Work with Project Management on timelines, priorities and turnaround for high-volume batches
• Coordinate with Social and Account teams on platform requirements and client feedback
• Take direction well, turn revisions quickly and flag issues early
• Bring ideas: suggest motion approaches, templates or workflows that make the work better or faster

We're hiring for both. The work is the same; the engagement differs. Freelance include day rate/hourly rate.

Full time salary is based on skill, location and portfolio.

• Deliverables ship on time, to spec and error-free the first time
• Simple animations feel intentional and on-brand, never generic
• Big resize batches move fast without losing quality or consistency
• Creative teams trust you to take a static layout and make it move well with minimal direction
• You leave the process better than you found it: cleaner templates, faster workflows, fewer revisions

• Open question: years of experience to require (agency or in-house motion/social work preferred)
• A portfolio or reel showing social animation and multi-format resizing
• Strong After Effects skills, plus Photoshop, Illustrator and Adobe Media Encoder
• Familiarity with Premiere Pro, Figma or Canva is a plus
• A solid grasp of typography, timing and layout across aspect ratios
• Working knowledge of social platform specs and best practices
• Organized, detail-obsessed and comfortable juggling many deliverables at once
• Clear communication and a low-ego, collaborative approach to feedback
