Realistic 40-Second 3D Cinematic Short

My storyboard lays out a 40-second sequence set in an open field at dusk where one character wishes the other a happy birthday. I already have detailed reference images for both characters, so modeling can stay fully on-style without guesswork; no additional characters will appear. What I need from you is the full cinematic pass—character modeling (unless you prefer to sculpt anew from the references), rigging, animation, lighting and rendering—so the final piece looks film-ready. The mood should feel grounded and realistic, with soft evening light, subtle wind on grass, and convincing facial performance during the brief line of dialogue. Scope at a glance • Scene: simple open field, golden-hour/blue-hour mix • Characters: exactly two, matching my reference art • Action: one delivers a heartfelt “happy birthday” line, the other reacts • Duration: 40 seconds (±2 seconds to allow for natural pacing) Deliverables 1. Final 4K video (ProRes or lossless H.264) with synced audio 2. High-resolution frame sequence (EXR or PNG) for grading 3. Project files (Blender, Maya, or Unreal + any textures/shaders) so I can archive or revise later Acceptance criteria • Every camera angle, cut, and gesture follows the supplied storyboard • Lighting matches an evening outdoor setup with realistic shadows and bounce • Lip-sync and facial animation are believable when viewed close-up • Total runtime stays within 38–42 seconds MY BUDGET IS $50-100.
