What our clients tell us
“Quillreel shaped our rough outline into a painted film with real warmth. Each scene feels considered, and the characters linger after.”
Daniel Reyes
Producer, Northlight Pictures
“Our loose script came back as a cartoon with genuine comic timing. The crew listened well and the short has real heart.”

Questions we hear often
What types of animation do you offer?
Six in-house looks — semi-realism, watercolor, Unreal Engine realism, cartoon, 3D and pixel art — often combined within one production wherever the narrative asks for it.
How long does it take to complete an animation project?
Short pieces usually need two to six weeks, while bigger cinematic builds take six to ten. A fixed timetable with review points is agreed before animation starts.
Can you handle both small projects and full-scale campaigns?
Absolutely. A single looping sprite and a multi-film rollout alike get their own producer, with the crew sized to match the brief.
How do you collaborate with clients during production?
Weekly preview links, boards you can comment on, and a single feedback thread keep every note visible across versions.
What do I need to provide to get started?
Only the starting point — a short brief, a reference, or an outline of the goal. We develop it into a script, style frames and a fixed estimate.
