I already have the finished background for a spooky-style game scene and simply need subtle life breathed into it. Your task is to animate only the light sources—the candles, the hanging lanterns and the jack-o’-lantern pumpkins—so they gently brighten and dim in a 5-6 second seamless loop. Everything else in the frame must stay absolutely pixel-perfect; no drifting camera, no moving fog, trees or moon, just the warm glow dancing. The source image is 1774 × 887 px, and I want to keep that exact resolution in the final render. Please work in After Effects or equivalent manual compositing software (no AI image-to-video tools) and supply: • A looping MP4 (H.264) at the original resolution • A visually seamless loop when played back-to-back • The editable After Effects project file, if possible, with tidy layers so I can tweak intensity later I’m working with a budget of roughly $30–80 and will fund quickly for the right fit. If this sounds straightforward for you, let me know how soon you can deliver and share a quick reel or example of similar light-only animation you’ve done.
