2D Animation for Automotive & Auto Components
2D Animation for Automotive & Auto Components is the one asset your buyer watches before they ever reply to an email. Character and motion-led 2D storytelling with a house style. We work as a production unit, not a rental desk — the same team that writes the script is on set for the shoot and in the room for the final grade, which is why the film that gets delivered still resembles the one that was approved.
Tier-1 supply chains judge you on process discipline visible on camera. In practice that changes the entire production plan. The person approving the film is usually the sourcing head / oem quality, the hardest constraint on set is oem confidentiality on line layouts, and the number that decides whether the project was worth it is vendor approvals per quarter. We design the schedule, the script and the deliverable set around those three realities.
We build the edit backwards from the last frame, so every earlier shot has to earn its place. The common failure is not budget — it is a script signed off by nobody in particular. A typical 2d animation engagement runs 12-20 days end to end with 4-8 animators on the production days, and lands between ₹30k and ₹3L depending on scale.

Six stages, no surprises
Sector approvals are scheduled as stages, not treated as interruptions.
- Stage 01Day 1-3
Discovery & brief lock
We sit with the people who actually own the outcome — usually sales, HR or the founder — and get to what the film has to change. The output is a one-page brief with a single measurable objective, not a mood board.
- Stage 02Day 3-7
Script & treatment
A written script, a shot-by-shot treatment and reference frames. Nothing is booked until this is signed. This is the cheapest place to change your mind and the most expensive place to skip.
- Stage 03Day 6-10
Recce & pre-production
Location recce in Pune, casting, permissions, art direction and a shotlist with timings. 4-8 animators are scheduled against that list so the shoot day has no dead hours.
- Stage 04Shoot days
Production
Filming with Toon Boom, After Effects, Cel workflow. We shoot for every deliverable in one pass — master, cutdowns and vertical crops — instead of returning for pickups later.
- Stage 05Day 10-18
Post-production
Assembly, edit, sound design, colour grade and graphics. Reviews run on timestamped links with two structured revision rounds included in the schedule.
- Stage 06Final week
Delivery & rollout
Platform-correct exports, subtitle files, thumbnails and a short rollout note on where each cut belongs. Gives abstract services a visual identity people remember.
How 2d animation actually gets made
The part of 2d animation that decides the outcome is pre-production, and it is the part most quotes compress. A shotlist that maps every deliverable to a specific setup means a 4-8 animators unit can cover in one day what an unplanned crew spreads across three. That is where the cost difference between a disciplined production and a cheap one actually shows up — not in the day rate, but in how many days you end up paying for.
On set we run Toon Boom, After Effects, Cel workflow because the format has to hold up under grading and cropping later. Shooting at higher resolution than the delivery spec is not vanity: it is what allows a single wide take to yield a clean 16:9 master and a 9:16 vertical cut without a second shoot. Across Pune the practical variables are ambient noise, power stability and access windows, all of which we lock during the recce.
Post-production is where the film either becomes an asset or a folder nobody opens. The assembly edit answers whether the story works; the fine cut answers whether it holds attention; the grade and mix answer whether it feels like it came from a serious company. For automotive & auto components clients we also build the vendor onboarding speed narrative directly into the structure, because that is what the sourcing head / oem quality is actually evaluating.
Use cases we plan for on this kind of project include brand mascot, process explainer, education. Each one implies a different length, a different opening and a different call to action, which is exactly why we produce a set of cuts rather than one film with a generic ending stitched on. Gives abstract services a visual identity people remember.
Questions we get asked first
Do you handle scripting or do we need an agency?＋
Scripting is included. We run a discovery session with the people who actually sell or operate the thing being filmed, turn that into a treatment, and only start the shoot once the script and storyboard are signed. If you already have an agency, we slot in as the production partner and work to their creative direction.
How much does 2d animation cost in Pune?＋
Realistic budgets run from ₹30k for a focused single-day production up to ₹3L for a full-scale build with a larger crew, art direction and extended post. The variables that actually move the number are shoot days, crew size, talent, locations and how many cutdowns you need. We quote line-by-line, so you can see exactly what a day of 4-8 animators or an extra grading pass costs before you approve anything.
Do you provide regional language versions?＋
Marathi, Hindi and English are handled in-house with native voice artists, and we run a sync QC pass on every dub. Subtitle files are delivered as both burned-in variants and separate SRTs so the same master works on broadcast, social and an internal LMS.
Can you shoot at our own premises?＋
Yes. We shoot on-site across Pune and PCMC and bring our own power, lighting and sound control. A recce before the shoot day lets us design around ceiling height, ambient noise and access windows.
How long does the whole process take?＋
Plan for 12-20 days from locked brief to final master for a standard 2d animation project. Pre-production takes the largest share of that window because scripting, casting and location recce decide how efficient the shoot day is. Fast-track schedules are possible when the script is already approved and the locations are fixed.
Who owns the raw footage?＋
You do, for the licensed deliverables. Raw rushes are archived for twelve months and can be handed over on a drive at cost. We do not hold footage hostage as a retention tactic — the reason clients come back is the next project, not the archive.
What if we do not like the first cut?＋
Two revision rounds are standard and built into the timeline. Reviews happen on a timestamped review link so feedback is attached to the exact frame instead of arriving as a paragraph of notes. Structural changes after the first cut is approved are quoted separately, which is precisely why the script lock stage exists.
