How we work

A clear pipeline.

Each stage has its own deliverable, and the review points follow the guidelines you set as the client.

01

Brief & scope

We define cuts, frame counts, style and dates.

02

LO / Key Animation

We lay out the staging, the camera and the key poses of every cut.

03

Genga / Clean up

We clean up the keyframes and keep the models consistent across the cut.

04

Douga / In-betweens

We fill in the in-betweens, following the timing chart and the model sheets.

05

Delivery & revisions

We deliver in the format your pipeline needs (Clip Studio, PSD or image sequences), with the agreed revision rounds.

The studio

Studio standards, direct communication.

We are a small studio with experienced hands. That shapes how we work: we choose carefully what we take on, you speak with the same person who follows your project from start to finish, and we agree the scope and the deadlines before starting.

More about us
  • Clip Studio Paint as our main tool
  • We take work by cut, episode or season
  • Direct communication with the artists on your project
In motion

Layout animation, already moving.

A shot taken to layout animation: staging, timing and key poses are already there, before any colour goes in.

Video games

Cutscenes that look like the anime they came from.

Hand-drawn anime in games is no longer only for the big titles. We animate 2D cutscenes, opening movies and character work for small and mid-size developers, on the same pipeline we run on series.
