Capture and engage with traditional, 2D illustration and animation

Traditional illustration and animation have undergone a resurgence in recent years. New talent brings a fresh approach to styles as divergent as black-and-white pencil or pen-and-ink illustrations and full-colour painted styles, vector art and more. Our team has worked across local and international campaigns as well as commissions for international magazine and press publications.

2D character illustration

For a project needing tangible personality on a slightly shorter timeline, 2D character and illustration serve perfectly. Our in-house and represented talent offer a range of styles and implementations that make a production really stand out.

2D character animation

Telling a moving story is easier when the characters themselves move. Traditional (cel) and digital 2D animation conjure up a vivid, entertaining narrative. 2D animation offers options from the rich, lush detail of entire worlds to sparser, quirkier spaces. Our specialists can put together a style and solution to match your budget, your deadline and your mood.
