3D animation of military base crewmen

We need an animator to give basic movement to a few 3D human figures to be used as background in 3D scenes. ** These models will be seen at a distance as background only. ** High resolution models are not needed. ** The movement is most important so they look like real humans walking, talking, etc. ** These characters should be ready to be inserted into 3D scene. ** We are using LIGHTWAVE 10 thru 11.6. So they should be able to be used in this program. ** DAZ models can be used but translated to Lightwave with surfaces intact and polygon count reduced. If MDD files are used to place movement - the models should be adjusted to work in Lightwave with NO tweaking on our end. We would just load the figure, use the MD reader and be set to go. ** Surfaces of the model should be accessible so we can change colors on basic items such as pants, shirt - skin, hair. We will not get close enough for high detail on any character. ** Modeled hair only. NO dynamics needed on any parts ** Figures should be scaled to real world - (6 foot high characters.) We'd like 10 movements to start for this project. Each movement cycle will be 10 seconds (240 frames) in length. The figures are men working at an Army base so the movements should reflect that feel. The movements are: 1. Walk cycle. Slow 2. Walk cycle. Medium 3. Walk cycle. Faster 4. Walk cycle. Medium while carrying a heavy duffle bag in one hand. 5. Walk for 5 seconds, then stop and idle for 5 seconds as if standing and talking. 6. Standing for 3 seconds and then starting to walk at medium speed. 7 Labored Walking while pushing a cart. Arms outstretched to cart's handles. 8. Standing idle and talking. Weight shift to show the character is indeed alive and not a statue. 9. Sitting on a ledge, legs dangling. Movement to show character is alive. 10. Kneeled character, weight shift and arms moving as if working on equipment. We can provide the human figures OR we'd prefer you to use models that you may already have rigged. They are working at a military base so T-shirts and kakki pants are fine. Maybe one has Sleeveless tank top and others t shirts. We can place hats on them if we want on our end. We can discuss this more once you have the job. This is a test project so we can find animators that can do more of these types of background characters for the overall project. Thank you and good luck!
