Part-time Graphic/Motion Designer

MSF Digital Production Team in need for the support of a Graphic/Motion Designer position in the upcoming period to answer the needs of developing layout, design and motion design capacities. 

MSF often works on complex issues or contexts which are sometimes tricky to translate into relevant communications. Thanks to its power of visualization and simplification, infographics and motion design can help us reach a large audience in a memorable way and help audiences understand an issue in one moment. 

Social media, traditional media and print reports all benefit from static or animated infographics. MSF is also working on some sensitive issues which while hard to show in video of photo form lend themselves well to an infographic approach.

The Graphic/Motion Designer will be producing and adapt infographics, design layout, motion design, animation and multimedia content. He/she will act as a team player working mainly on design production but also giving a hand on video production when needed (subtitling, adaptation). 

The Graphic/Motion Designer will be producing for campaign communication (70%) but also for Institutional projects (30%). He/she will also be in charge of developing standards for design production and for maintaining organized archives in design.
