We specialize in efficient, high-quality animation production using our proprietary Animatic™ system, which enables clients to visualize animations clearly before committing to full production.

Key Benefits

  • Rapid motion visualization via Animatic™ system
  • AI-powered motion capture from simple video references
  • Significant time and cost savings compared to traditional animation
  • Clear communication and efficient feedback loops
  • Flexible pricing depending on animation complexity

Animatic System

Our Animatic™ system uniquely streamlines the animation outsourcing process, drastically reducing miscommunication and revision cycles.

How It Works

  1. Initial Request
    • Basic motions (walking, running, jumping): Text description sufficient
    • Complex motions: Single reference video or detailed description
  2. Reference Research & Expansion
    • Plask team compiles additional references and explores movement variations
  3. Animatic Delivery (Within 24 Hours)
    • Client receives 2-3 preview options applied to a 3D character
    • Client provides early feedback
  4. Direction Selection
    • Client selects preferred direction or requests adjustments

Benefits of Animatic

  • Reduces ambiguity significantly
  • Cuts major revisions by 80%
  • Shortens feedback loops

Working Process

Our streamlined working process consists of five simple steps:

Step 1: Inquiry Briefly describe your animation request to get started. We'll help you determine the best approach for your specific needs.

Step 2: Animatic Receive preliminary visual animation drafts within 24 hours for feedback. This allows you to see potential directions before full production begins.

Step 3: Payment After reviewing the animatics, we'll confirm the scope, pricing, and payment terms. We typically require 50% payment upfront to begin production.

Step 4: Production Full animation production begins based on the confirmed animatic direction. Our team will work diligently to bring your vision to life.

Step 5: Delivery Once completed, we'll deliver the final animation assets. The remaining 50% payment is due upon delivery and approval.

FAQs

General Questions

How does Plask's animation service differ from traditional animation outsourcing?

Plask uses AI-powered motion capture technology combined with our unique Pre-Vision™ system. This allows us to provide visual motion options within 24 hours, dramatically reduce miscommunication, and deliver final animations in days instead of weeks.

Do I need to provide detailed animation references?

No. For basic motions like walking or running, text descriptions are sufficient. For more complex motions, a single reference video helps, but our team will research and provide multiple options based on your initial direction.

How accurate is your AI motion capture technology?

Our technology captures approximately 90-95% of the motion details from video references. Our professional animators then refine the captured data to ensure smooth, game-ready animations.

Technical Questions

Can you work with our custom character rig?

Yes. We can adapt animations to custom rigs with proper documentation. Please provide your rig specifications during the project initiation phase.

What game engines do you support?

We provide optimized animations for all major game engines, including Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot, and custom engines. Special export settings are available on request.

Do you provide motion data with root motion?

Yes. We can deliver animations with or without root motion according to your requirements.

Business Questions

What is your payment structure?

We typically require 50% payment upfront and 50% upon delivery. For larger projects, we offer milestone-based payment schedules.

What happens if I'm not satisfied with the results?

Our Animatic system significantly reduces dissatisfaction by aligning expectations early. However, if you're not completely satisfied with the final delivery after all included revisions, we offer a satisfaction guarantee with partial or full refunds depending on the circumstances.

Do you offer NDAs for project confidentiality?

Yes. We're happy to sign NDAs before beginning any project discussions.
