Create Animated SMS Quiz Ad for Digital Taxi Rank Screens

We are launching the Taxi Rank Quiz Competition, an SMS-based campaign targeting over 2.7 million daily commuters via digital screens at taxi ranks in South Africa. We need a skilled motion graphic designer/animator to create a 30–60 second animated promotional video based on our storyboard. The video should have dynamic text animation, voice-over and music syncing, and be optimized for digital outdoor screens. Scene-by-scene references are provided for style, pacing, and audio cues. The ad should highlight how to enter via SMS, pose a sample quiz question, and use bold graphics and sound to capture attention. The final deliverable must be polished and suitable for digital screen advertising. We are Laxo Media, and this project helps promote audience engagement at taxi ranks.

Budget range:
Small project ($750 – 1,500 USD)
