Every project we take on falls into one of two stages — getting a project funded, greenlit, or backed, or producing a project that's already moving. We tailor scope, pacing, and pricing to match. Below are the six ways we work with filmmakers, game developers, musicians, creators, and brands.
How We Price and Deliver
Two numbers shape every quote we give:
Starting at $9,200 per minute of finished 2D animation — significantly more accessible than comparable Western studios, without cutting quality.
2–4 months per minute of production time, so you get a realistic schedule from day one, not an optimistic one.
At least 60% of every project is produced by South African 2D artists — meaning your budget goes further while helping grow a talent base other studios overlook.
How do I know which service is right for my project?
Tell us where your project is right now — pitching, funded, or already in production — and we'll point you to the right service and scope.
What's the minimum project size you take on?
We scope projects from short pitch trailers (under a minute) up to full 30-minute productions. Reach out with your idea and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a fit.
Do you only work with South African clients?
No — the majority of our clients are international. We work remotely with filmmakers, game developers, musicians, and brands worldwide.
How is pricing calculated?
Animation starts at $9,200 per minute of finished work excluding scripts, concept designs and other items, adjusted for style and complexity. Mascot design and album art are quoted per project.
