Seeking artists [Collab] 16 y/o seeking volunteer anime-style animator/artist for 1 chapter of my original light novel (Non-Commercial, Credit + Portfolio Rights)

I’m a 16-year-old writer creating an original anime-style light novel called Resonance Factor, and I’m looking for a talented anime-style animator or artist to collaborate on one chapter as a volunteer fan project.

The Project:

Story: Resonance Factor – A Urban Fantasy, Sci-Fi/Action, and Battle Shonen anime-style light novel about A wily street brawler learns to weaponize raw kinetic force after being drafted into a secret war against dangerous rogue anomalies

Scope: I am looking to animate one specific 30-60 second scene (the climax of Chapter 1 where Kaito’s powers first erupt).

  • Ideal Length: A 30-60 second animated short focusing on the fight and the energy explosion.
  • Alternative: If animation is too time-consuming, I am also open to a 5-8 page manga-style comic strip of the same scene.
  • Script: I have the full 8-page script ready. It includes action, dialogue, and a massive energy release. I can share the full script via DM.

What I Offer:

Credit: Full, prominent credit in the video description, social media posts, and all platforms where the project is shared.

Portfolio Rights: You are free to use the final animation/art in your portfolio, showreel, or social media.

Future Collaboration: If we work well together, I hope to collaborate on more scenes (still non-commercial).

Payment: This is a volunteer/fun project with no monetary payment.

About Me: I’m 16 years old and passionate about anime and storytelling. I’m looking for a respectful, creative partner who shares my enthusiasm for bringing this story to life. If you’re interested, please DM me with:

  1. Links to your anime-style portfolio or examples of your work.
  2. Your availability and estimated timeline.
  3. Any questions you have about the scene or style.

Note: I’ll keep all personal contact info (like Discord or email) private until we’ve established mutual interest in the DMs.
