I need some
animation done - what do I do next? |
|
| |
Get in touch! We love
hearing from people with amazing ideas. We can talk your
idea through with you over the phone or face to face -
all of our initial consultations are free. Once we have
agreed on the brief, time scale, rates etc. we will send
out a contract for you to sign & then we can get started
on making your masterpiece. |
|
| |
What will
I need to provide? |
|
| |
Well…an initial
idea would be nice! Most of our clients provide us with
some kind of a script and/or storyboard to get their idea
across. We can however provide you with a storyboard based
on your script. If need be, we can develop the idea with
you - creating style, character and idea boards. |

How much is
it going to cost? |
|
| |
The cost really does
depend on the complexity of the project, how long it will
take to produce and how quickly you want the project turned
around (if you need the project tomorrow, we will need
to hire in extra help). We have a general daily rate in
place for 2D and 3D animation work, and an hourly rate
for web and graphic design. The best thing to do is to
send through as much information as you can about your
project and we'll draft up a rough estimate to start from.
If you would like to let us know what your overall budget
is, we can see what we can do for you.
Depending on the time scale of the project, we normally
ask for a proportion of the estimated project fee up front
before any work can commence, and the remainder payable
on delivery of the project. This can be negotiated at
contract stage. |

How long is a piece
of string? This also depends on how complex your project
is. 2D animated pieces do tend to take less time than
3D animated projects. To give you an idea - we produced
the 30 second “Henoo” advertisement in 15
days, and the 10 minute “As Old As You Feel”
animation in 45 days. |

What happens
to the character rights? |
|
| |
If you want to retain
the rights to the characters used in your production and
they are designed by us, we can set up a contract passing
all rights to the characters to you. If the characters
are designed solely by you, you will retain all of the
rights to the characters. |
|
| |
What about
sound & music? |
|
| |
We work with a network
of very skilled sound and music artists and can arrange
to have all sound and music produced and recorded for
you at an extra cost. This cost will be arranged before
the project commences. |
