Issue No. 327 Open Brief

Start your
flipbook.

Thirty minutes, one senior animator, no slides. Tell us what you want to animate and we’ll sketch a path through frames, sequencing, and sound before the call ends. No AI in the workflow. No template decks. Just two humans and a Cintiq.

Section 01 — The Brief

Tell us what you’re flipping.

The form below lands directly in the producers’ inbox. We read every line. A senior animator (not a coordinator, not an account manager) replies within one business day to schedule the 30-minute discovery call.

We reply within one business day. Your brief is read by a human, not an inbox bot.

Section 02 — The Fine Print

Before you book.

A short list of what to expect, written so neither of us wastes the half hour.

  1. 01

    We reply within one business day.

    A producer and a senior animator read every brief together. If the project is a fit, we propose three call windows inside 24 hours. If it isn’t, we’ll say so — and usually point you to a studio that is.

  2. 02

    You’ll meet a senior animator, not a salesperson.

    Margaret, Devon, or one of our six leads takes the call. They’ll sketch thumbnails live if it helps. There is no “closing script” — the call is a working session, not a pitch.

  3. 03

    Bring the messy version.

    A napkin sketch, a competitor’s ad you liked, a Slack thread, a moodboard. The less polished the brief, the more useful the call. We’ll do the polishing.

  4. 04

    We politely decline some briefs.

    We don’t take on AI-assisted keyframing, generic stock-styled explainers, Fortune 500 enterprise retainer work, or “rush in 48 hours” asks. If that’s you, the call will be short — and we’ll happily recommend three other studios.

“The first flipbook I ever made had forty-eight pages and took me a whole summer. We still work at that pace — just with better lightboxes. If you’re calling us, you’re already part of the craft. Come ready to draw with us.”
