The "easy-ness" level of something like this depends on your familiarity with the program and with similar effects. A paint-out like this shouldn't be awful as the clip is relatively short and the camera movement isn't particularly severe. Are you interested in hiring someone to do the paint-out or hoping to complete the shot yourself?

i'd hire someone if it cost me like 5 aud or less, but i doubt someone's doing it for that price yk
this is just a student film so its not super deep

I do these things all the time, for a paintout this short I’d probably quote an hour, two max. For someone who’s never done it I would expect them to spend a day on it (assuming they have some basic knowledge of the comp app already), I’m sure you could find a bunch of tutorials if you’re serious about it. No point in offering basically zero cash for it though.
