The Top 10 Things to Look for
When Hiring a Motion Graphics/Animation Designer.  Written by The Myrmigi Design House Team

 1. MARKETING: A social network like "Styleapple" is a very good resource when you are trying to find designers or studios to assign your work. Take a look at their projects, read about them and make your choice depending on what your ideal collaboration would be like.

2. REFERENCES: Ask for references, or get in contact with some of the designer's / studio stated clients, usually found in his / their website, for a brief comment on their own experience. 

3. FIRST CONTACT: Hand in a brief scenario describing the product, or service, you want commercialized and also ask for their own alternative view. Getting a fresher look will help for a more friendly and fluent communication. 

4. IN THE BEGINNING: Provide them with your detailed outline, budget and timeframe in order to derive their proposal-s. Review and negotiate their price.
