At BRAVE Books, we create faith- and values-based stories, TV shows, games, and resources that equip families to raise the next generation of courageous, truth-filled leaders. We publish bold, meaningful content every month—from picture books and graphic novels to TV series and more—all designed to captivate children and support parents in the battle for their kids’ hearts and minds.

About BRAVE Culture

At BRAVE Books, we’ve built a team of reliable, relentless high-performers who are loyal to the mission, driven to win, and selfless in execution. We hire individuals who show up hungry, take ownership, and grind with consistency — the kind of people who carry more than their share without needing the spotlight.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a driven, detail-oriented Animator who can execute high-quality animations that align with BRAVE’s storytelling vision and brand standards. This role plays a critical part in producing engaging visual content that inspires, entertains, and reinforces values for kids and families.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Translate storyboards, scripts, and creative direction into polished animation sequences.
• Collaborate with creative leadership and cross-functional teams to refine animation timing, pacing, and visual storytelling.
• Ensure all animation meets BRAVE’s quality, brand, and technical standards.
• Manage assigned tasks efficiently to meet production deadlines without sacrificing quality.

QUALIFICATIONS & COMPETENCIES

• Strong animation fundamentals (timing, motion, composition, storytelling).
• Proficiency in industry-standard animation software (e.g., After Effects, Toon Boom, Blender, Maya, or similar).
• Ability to receive feedback with humility and implement revisions quickly.
• Strong work ethic, reliability, and ownership of deliverables.
• An interest and understanding of how to use A.I. in the creative process.

PREFERRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

• Experience animating content for children or family audiences.
• Familiarity with faith- or values-based storytelling.
• Understanding of animation pipelines and production workflows.
