Create Sprite Sheets - Pixel Animation

We're putting together a small 2D animated project and require assistance creating sprite sheets and short animation sequences. Walk, run, jump, punch, sword stab, sword slash, axe chop, axe slash, shield defend and two different 'death sequences' will be required Could be a great long-term opportunity for the right candidate, and we have additional pixel-art requirements. For now we just would like a complete walk. 16-bit style.
