2D Animation Company
Illustrated worlds, expressive characters and deliberate motion — our 2D animators turn complex ideas into short films your audience actually watches to the end.
2D animation is the most flexible storytelling tool a brand has. It can simplify a technical process into three clean scenes, give a faceless product a personality, or carry a serious message with warmth instead of jargon — and it does all of that at a production cost and pace that live action rarely matches.
Our 2D studio designs every project from a blank page. Illustrators build a style around your brand, animators give it weight and timing, and sound designers make it feel finished. The result is animation that looks like it belongs to you, not to a template library — and assets your team can keep reusing across campaigns.
Whether you need a single hero explainer or a recurring stream of social content, our 2D team scales the craft to the brief.
Short, focused films that explain what your product does and why it matters, structured around the one question your buyers ask first.
Brand mascots and story characters designed, rigged and animated with expressions and acting that make audiences care.
Traditional hand-drawn animation for moments that need texture, energy and the unmistakable feel of a human hand.
Animated typography, icons and data that bring structure and rhythm to product demos, reports and presentations.
Thumb-stopping 6–30 second ads built for sound-off feeds, with hooks in the first second and cut-downs for every placement.
Lesson-sized animations that break complex topics into memorable steps, designed with instructional designers for retention.
A cross-section of the animated work we produce. Each project started with a conversation about what the audience needed to understand, feel or do — and the video was built backwards from that.
B2B SaaSWe wrote and animated a 90-second 2D explainer that follows one team through a chaotic week, then shows the same week with the product — UI animated in the brand's own style.
HealthcareA series of five calm, character-led animations — one per step of the patient journey — reviewed for clinical accuracy and captioned for sound-off viewing.
FintechA reusable motion graphics system — templates, transitions and an animated UI kit — that lets us turn each release into a 20-second walkthrough within days.
EcommerceWe built the product in 3D from CAD files, then lit and animated a 45-second launch film plus a turntable and exploded view for the product page.
Three things separate 2D animation that gets watched from 2D animation that gets skipped. We build all three into every project.
Before anything moves, we design key frames in a style built from your brand system — so the finished video feels like an extension of your identity.
Our animators use timing, easing and anticipation deliberately, so the eye always lands on what matters in each scene and nothing moves without a reason.
Professional voice-over, an original or licensed music bed and detailed sound effects give every 2D production a finished, premium feel.
2D covers a wide range of looks and workflows. These are the techniques our animators reach for most, and the kinds of problems each one solves.
Every frame drawn individually, giving movement an organic, expressive quality that rigs can't fully reproduce. It is the right call for brand moments, title sequences and stories that need emotional punch.
In practice
An opening sequence for a brand film where the logo is sketched, smudged and redrawn by hand — a 10-second moment that sets the tone for the whole campaign.
Characters are built once with a full rig — mouth shapes, expressions, poses — then animated efficiently across many videos. It keeps a mascot or cast perfectly on-model from episode one to episode fifty.
In practice
A recurring guide character for a fintech app's help centre, appearing in a growing library of short how-to videos without the cost of redrawing each one.
Clean vector animation exported as Lottie files plays natively in websites and apps — crisp at any size, interactive if you need it, and a fraction of the weight of video.
In practice
Onboarding illustrations for a mobile app that animate as users swipe, adding delight without slowing the first launch.
Illustrated elements combined with real product UI, photography or live-action footage. It grounds a story in reality while keeping the clarity and charm of 2D.
In practice
A SaaS demo where hand-drawn annotations and characters interact with real screen recordings of the product to guide viewers through a workflow.

On-Demand ServicesWe treat every 2D video as a business asset, not an art project. That starts with a brief that names the audience, the single message and the action we want viewers to take — and every creative decision is tested against it.
Because illustration, animation and sound all happen in one studio, your video moves from script to screen without hand-off delays. And because we build in reusable characters, scenes and style guides, your second and third videos cost less and ship faster than the first.
The same 2D style can be shaped for very different jobs. These are the formats we produce most often, and where each one earns its keep.
60–90 second videos placed above the fold to answer 'what is this and why should I care?' before visitors bounce.
Short vertical and square cuts with a strong first-second hook, designed to work with the sound off.
Feature-by-feature animations embedded in apps and help centres to cut the time it takes new users to see value.
Engaging 2D modules for policy, compliance and process training that employees actually finish.
A well-made 2D video keeps working long after launch day. Here is where our clients see it pay off.
Visitors understand the offer in seconds, so more of them reach the sign-up or demo form.
Sales teams send one video instead of repeating the same intro call again and again.
How-to animations answer the questions customers would otherwise email about.
Distinctive illustration and characters make your brand easier to remember than stock footage.
Swap the voice-over and on-screen text, and the same video works in a new market.
Characters, scenes and style guides are reused across ads, decks and social posts.
Most projects draw on more than one discipline. These are the services that sit alongside this one.
A 60–90 second 2D video usually takes 3–5 weeks: about a week for script and storyboard, a week for style frames and voice-over, and two to three weeks for animation and sound. Frame-by-frame work and longer videos take more time.
Most 2D projects range from $3,000 for a short motion-led video to $18,000+ for a longer piece with custom characters. Length, illustration complexity and the number of versions you need are the main cost drivers.
Motion graphics animates shapes, text, icons and data — it is ideal for explaining systems and numbers. 2D animation usually involves illustrated scenes and characters with acting and storytelling. Many of our videos blend both.
Yes. We can rebuild your existing artwork as animation-ready files and rig your characters, keeping them true to your brand guidelines.
We deliver MP4 masters in every aspect ratio you need, plus captioned versions and, where relevant, Lottie or GIF files for web and email. Source files can be included on request.
No. Most clients start with an idea or a goal, and our writers develop the script with you. If you have a draft, we will review it for timing, clarity and pacing.
