Empower your business storytelling
with our traditional animation service
At Anideos, we use traditional, frame-by-frame animation to help bring your tale to life—leaving an indelible impression on our audience. As of today, the clients’ attention spans are short. So, we utilize the power of animated content and offer cartoon animation services that greatly enhance their viewing experience.
Traditional animation includes early kinds of animation, such as hand-drawn and cel animation. Think back to early Disney movies like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs—it was the first entirely hand-drawn traditional animation video. Throughout the 20th century, it was the most preferred method for most works. Traditional animation is typically defined as animations drawn by hand on paper. However, today, hand-drawn animation is usually created on computers, drawn using a pen and tablet. Creating animations with the frame-by-frame technique is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is well worth the effort. Need cartoon animators for hire? Let’s get in touch.

Our traditional animation
process in six steps
Planning
The first step of our traditional animation process is planning. This is where our expert animators analyze the main idea that needs to be conveyed along with the target audience, market trends, and the goals of your animation project. We fuse your ideas and our creativity and aim to deliver nothing but the best.
Script Writing and Voiceover
Next comes the script. We focus on writing a script that identifies what and when each character must do. Since it’s frame-by-frame animation, scripting is a crucial step. Each frame decided here will later be combined to make the big picture. After that, we let the voiceover artists do their job.
Concept Development
Concept art is a pre-production step that portrays everything that’ll appear in your animated story. Once the script is prepared, we pour in all our creativity to develop a concept. We make character sketches in different poses, props, and character environments using Photoshop and other software.
Storyboarding
Storyboarding helps us create a project prototype of some form. We draw a rough draft of the critical scenes, after which we make some helpful notes and modifications before animating. Together with the voiceover file, draft frames, and script, we assess the future traditional animation outcome.
Animation and Production
Finally comes the most important step, animation. This is where we put our skilled animators to work. With the help of the script and voiceover file, we draw frames using software such as Toon boom, Moho, and TVPaint to slowly breathe life into your animated characters and the story itself. Frame-by-frame animation production is time-consuming and laborious.
Post Production
At last, we put together every piece of work we did before using Adobe Premier. Our animators make sure to put each frame together in the correct order and consider all the tiniest bits of detail. Next, we seamlessly merge the voiceover file with the visual part to avoid delays and uneven voice lines.

Frame-by-frame animation is not just for entertainment, but it’s rather an effective business tool. Not to mention, traditional animation requires a creative mindset, specific skills, expertise as well as the use of the right software—Anideos’ team of A-players are pros at all. So using the latest techniques, we craft artistic frame-by-frame animation videos that present a great way to surpass your competitors.
FAQs
Frame-by-frame animation is a technique that involves making small, incremental changes to individual still graphics, typically drawings, one frame at a time. The modified illustrations are then displayed sequentially and quickly to create the illusion of movement. Since each frame (or image) is independently drawn, the process is tedious and labor-intensive.
The primary difference between the two is that traditional animation involves using physical materials and activities, whereas digital animation uses virtual materials in a digital space. For traditional animation, animators require equipment such as pen, paper, etc., while the whole process is computerized in digital animation. Other than that, the cost of animation also varies.
At Anideos, we follow a step-by-step traditional animation process, giving each step the necessary attention, so we deliver the best possible traditional animation video. As a rule of thumb, animation companies usually take around 12 weeks to produce a 60-90 seconds animated video. However, the time taken largely depends on the complexity and length of your video.

Yet again, the pricing depends on various factors, typically including your video style, duration, and complexity. We’ve created a 60-second custom animated video ranging between $7,000 - $20,000. But don’t worry about the prices; we’re always up to discussing your project requirements and goals before we quote a price. Safe to say, we offer a broad range of animation services without compromising your budget or standards. On the lookout for a frame-by-frame cartoon animation service? We’re one text away.
