Neon Fossil Studios Ltd is an independent animation studio focused on creating original intellectual property.

We build stories, characters, and worlds from the ground up.

Everything we do starts with ideas.

And the people and stories behind them.

_____

What this could mean for you:

Depending on how you apply, and what you bring, this could involve: • creative development • writing • animation • music and sound • production and coordination • business and operations • or something else entirely

Not everything is predefined.

Some roles exist because they're needed.

Others exist because someone made them make sense.

_____

How do we approach hiring?

All applications are: • read • considered • assessed with purpose

We don't operate on a "one size fits all" approach.

Some people apply for something specific. Some people apply without knowing exactly where they fit yet.

Both are valid.

_____

A different kind of process

You may notice that parts of the application feel: • open • flexible • slightly unclear in places

This is intential.

Not everything is explained upfront. Not everything needs to be.

How you approach this matters just as much as what you submit.

_____

A ‘special’ note from the Director “Specifically here at Neon Fossil Studios Ltd, what we look for in applicants can vary. Typically, as you may already expect, we hire people with the relevant and capable skills to suit our current business needs. You’re probably thinking — what are those needs? In this summary, we outline what would normally be considered. At the same time, we also don’t. That’s intentional.

_____

In practice, we hire based on two factors. The second includes the first. Both can carry equal weight.

_____

People who are already operating at a high standard — particularly those working with or around commercial-level IP — will naturally align with what we do, and will be considered for developing our original work.

_____

At the same time, so will others. Careers are often built from a unique combination of experience, perspective, and thinking. This doesn’t always come from the same places. And it doesn’t always look how you expect.

_____

Your experience matters. How you think matters just as much. Together, they tend to speak for themselves.

_____

Some people will take the time to understand this before applying. Some won’t. Both still apply.

_____

Either way, your application is where that becomes clear.” What we’re building We are an animation studio creating original IP. That means: • everything starts from nothing • everything is developed internally • everything grows from the people involved

_____

How this connects to you There isn’t just one way to come into this. Some people: • know exactly what they want to do • have a clear path Others: • don’t • but still have something valuable We account for both.

_____

What happens next If you decide to apply, you’ll go through our application system. It’s designed to: • understand what you’re interested in • see how you think • identify where you might fit And sometimes: • where you don’t expect to fit

_____

Career development There is no fixed path. Career progression depends on: • what you bring • how you develop • what you choose to pursue Opportunities are not always assigned. Sometimes they are created.

_____

Attention to detail Some people will read this carefully. Some won’t. Both types of people apply. We notice that too.

_____

Final note Everything starts with the application.
