Do I keep the rights to my characters and animation?
Yes — 100%. Every package includes full IP ownership in writing. You own every frame, every character design, every soundtrack stem. Forever. We never claim creative or commercial rights. You can license to streamers, schools, or publishers without any approval from us.
How long does an animated film take to produce?
Depending on the package: The Spark is 2–3 weeks, The Story is 3–5 weeks, The Universe is 6–10 weeks, and The Legacy (a full 6-episode series) is 12–16 weeks. Our fastest delivery on record is 10 days for a 5-minute Universe build — we don't recommend that pace, but it's possible.
What's the price range?
Packages start at $4,997 (The Spark) and go up to $75,000+ (The Legacy). Each price is "from" — the final quote depends on character count, episode length, and additional deliverables. See
the full packages page for detail.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Every package above $4,997 is split into 2–3 phased payments tied to delivery milestones. You fund the build as it ships — never everything upfront.
Do I need to hand over creative control?
No. We're an author-first studio. Your story, your characters, your voice. We bring the production craft. Every milestone — character design, voice direction, music — is shown to you for approval before we move forward.
Where is the studio based?
Kingston, Jamaica 🇯🇲. We work with authors worldwide remotely. Our team is Caribbean-rooted, globally trained.
What kind of authors do you work with?
Children's book authors who are serious about building a cinematic universe around their book. We work with self-published authors, hybrid-published authors, and publishing houses. We've been used in Caribbean educational storytelling contexts and adopted by school systems. We're selective — 3 cinematic projects per quarter.
Can I license my animation to schools?
Yes. The Story, Universe, and Legacy packages all include school-licensing rights, and the Universe and Legacy include a dedicated educational cut. We've worked directly with Caribbean school systems and can advise on licensing structure.
Do I need a finished manuscript before booking?
Yes. We work from a complete, edited manuscript. If you're still drafting, we recommend finalizing the story first — then booking us when you're ready to launch. (We can recommend editors if needed.)
What's included in a Discovery Call?
30 minutes — free, no pressure. We listen to your book, ask about your launch goals, and tell you honestly which package fits (or whether we're the right studio for you at all). If we're not a fit, we'll tell you. If we are, we send a proposal within 48 hours.
Can my book become a Netflix series?
That's exactly what The Legacy package is built for. It includes a full show bible, style guide, Netflix-ready pitch deck, and streamer outreach support. We can't guarantee a Netflix deal — no studio can — but we can build the cinematic universe and pitch package that makes it possible.
