    ​With a collaborative approach that values client input at every stage, we ensure our animation and game storyboard encapsulate your unique vision while exceeding the loftiest of expectations.

    ONLY HIGH-QUALITY Storyboards

    We are perfectionists by nature and can’t even deliver a bad storyboard even if asked to! An ugly art annoys our brains more than you 😀

    Several times, a client was happy with a piece of art, but we were not, so we designed it again from scratch at our own expense.

    The ACCURATE Translation of Your Script

    We offer more than just a storyboard. Our team tries hard to translate your idea accurately, ensuring your vision makes it to the screen even better than what you have in your mind. We remove the guesswork to show the storyboard with simple models, scenes, and movements with better details beyond your expectations and align the creative team around your original vision

    Revisions & CHANGES

    We welcome changes and criticism, and we are as flexible as possible when it comes to implementing revisions. However, as professionals, we will express our opinions and provide our advice. Ultimately, the decision-making lies with you.

    CONSTANT Communication

    You will be constantly updated to share your comments, apply any changes to the storyboard, and ensure we are on the right track. An exclusive account manager will be allotted to your project who will manage our communications. They respond to messages quickly, are always available, on-call, and ready to jump on a meeting with you, even on weekends.

    We Get the Job DONE

    You may have experienced situations where delegating a project has resulted in both time and cost wastage, with a failed outcome. That’s not the case here. We will take full responsibility to ensure that the desired outcome is achieved once and for all.

    ?What Is the Entire Process of Storyboard Production

    Our storyboard production involves identifying your unique requirements and needs and breaking down the narration, key scenes, actions, movements, and transitions.

    Then, we create quick and rough thumbnail sketches for each panel, including composition, staging, expressions, camera angles, character positions, and important visual details.

    We add dialogue, captions, or descriptions for each panel, refine the sketches into more detailed ones, and finalize them based on your feedback.

    ?Why Outsource Storyboard Illustration Services

    There are 3 reasons to consider outsourcing your storyboard:

    Creativity: Have you ever considered that you can outsource creativity, too? Apple partnered with Hovey-Kelley for creative ideas when inventing the mouse. A storyboard agency thrives on imagination and creativity.

    Quality: Practice makes perfect. Storyboard companies produce countless storyboards, constantly honing skills and staying current on industry trends and tools. Their experience enables great storyboarding service delivery without wasted time or budget.

    Scalability: Expanding a storyboard scale requires growing your team. That’s challenging in-house but not for a storyboard agency with access to more storyboard artists. A storyboard company maintains larger talent pools and connections to scale up readily.

    ?How to Choose the Best Storyboard Agency

    There are 4 criteria for picking the best storyboard agency for your projects:

    Portfolio: A storyboard company’s expertise is showcased via its storyboard portfolio, and nothing tells better what they are capable of than its past works.

    Reviews: Read their reviews online and see what their past clients think of them. The most honest on-hand thing you can find in any agency is its online reviews.

    Communication: First impressions matter – especially when it comes to communication. If they’re slow to respond or just plain rude from the get-go, imagine how it’ll be once they have your money! Trust your gut and work with people who make you feel good.

    Time and Budget Compatibility: After all, you might find the best storyboard studio in the world, but your time schedule and/or money budget do not meet their demands. Find a storyboard agency that meets all the previous characteristics as well as your budget and schedule.

    ?Which Storyboard Styles Do You Provide

    Our storyboarding services include storyboards in any style, including thumbnail storyboards, animated storyboards, slugging storyboards, vertical storyboards, technical storyboards, style frames, and animatics. You can choose the style based on the needs of the project and how much time can be invested in the storyboarding process.

    ?What Are the Strategies for Managing Projects with Tight, Deadlines

    Here are 3 key managing tips for rushed projects:

    Build in a buffer time (plan for 5 weeks if your target timeline is 6 weeks) for contingencies, iterations, and reviews. Buffer time acts as a protection against any errors or issues related to the project force majeure. This way, circumstances that might not go as planned are taken into account. 

    Build in a buffer budget due to the need for additional resources, overtime hours working, revisions, and changes. While some changes might seem minor, they can accumulate, leading to significant increases in both costs and time.

    Consider reevaluating some aspects and changing your project scope and overview by reducing the complexity, number, and length of the project.

    ?What Are the Keys to a Successful Storyboard Collaboration

    Here are 7 strategies to help you benefit the most from a storyboard partnership:

    Provide a Clear Brief: Start by providing a detailed brief that outlines your project’s goals, target audience, style preferences, and any specific requirements or references. This clarity upfront sets the right expectations and success.

    Exact Planning/Milestone Request: Request a detailed production schedule that breaks down the key milestones and deliverables from the studio. This transparency allows you to track progress and ensure timely completion.

    Stand on Your Values While Trusting the Studio: Establish parameters based on your unique values or objectives. While maintaining oversight, be open to the studio’s creative suggestions in both technical and artistic aspects. Our experience shows that 93% of our clients who trust us tend to achieve better results.

    Request Regular Updates: Ask for daily or weekly progress updates depending on the project’s complexity. This frequent communication ensures alignment and allows for timely course corrections.

    Have a Comprehensive Contract: Establish a detailed contract that covers timelines, deliverables, payment terms, delay penalties (if applicable), and any other crucial terms.

    Document Everything: Maintain all communication records, including chat logs and meeting notes. This documentation serves as a reference and helps mitigate potential disputes.

    Foster a Safe Environment: Encourage an open and collaborative atmosphere where the studio can freely express creative ideas without fear of blame for mistakes.
