A video where every frame is reviewed and finished by hand.
A 90s-cartoon or anime piece, a realistic story, an ad. We review every frame and rerun the motion until it sits right.

Handcrafted videos are pieces where no frame reaches the client without a person reviewing it. A single motion can take up to a hundred generations, then come the edit and the music. A video of up to 90 seconds starts at $190 and takes about a week.
How a handcrafted video differs from a mass one
A mass format is built once and multiplied into hundreds or thousands of unique videos. That is how you get, say, a thousand explainer videos where an animal talks about what a product does. A handcrafted video is made as a single piece: the story, the frames, the edit and the music are built for it alone.
What we make by hand
Three genres that do not work without a person at the monitor.
- animation: 90s retro aesthetics or anime, with a character people remember
- realistic stories: light, texture and acting without a film crew
- ads: the product as it is, with the shape and the logo undistorted
How the work on a frame goes
A model rarely nails the motion on the first try. So a person watches every frame, and if a hand bends wrong or a face drifts, we run the generation again. One motion can take up to a hundred attempts. Then come the edit, the audio and the music.
- story and storyboard for the task
- frame generation with a review of every frame
- motion regeneration until it is clean
- editing, music and sound
- delivery of the finished video
Price and timelines
The price covers the video as a whole: generations, editing and music are already in it.
Case: an animated series season for a household chemicals brand
For a household chemicals brand we made a season of an animated series, five episodes. It gathered 6M views. We do not name the client: all projects are under NDA.
If you need a different kind of video
Marketplace videos, ad creatives, music videos, sound and avatars we do with partners. We stay accountable for the result, so you do not have to coordinate the contractors.
