What is an AI animation?

An AI animation is an animated video in which parts of the creative process are accelerated or enriched with artificial intelligence. Think of text-to-image for style exploration, automatic rotoscoping, or AI-driven lip-sync. In our hybrid approach, the core of the work—story, design, and animation—remains in the hands of our designers and 2D/3D animators. This allows you to benefit from AI-driven efficiency while retaining control over brand style, narrative, and quality. The result: an AI-generated video that doesn't look like a generic template, but like a strong, customized production. For compositing-driven styles, motion graphics animation is a logical choice.

When should you choose to have AI animation created?

AI is ideal when you need speed, variety, or personalization, for example in:

  • Campaigns and social ads that require multiple variants or rapid iterations
  • Explanatory animations for when you want to visualize concepts quickly. View 2D animation creation for the basics and workflow.
  • Product or process visualizations with many versions in a short period of time
  • Local adaptations—think multiple languages, formats, and CTAs
  • AI avatar videos or talking heads for onboarding or support

Our approach - hybrid AI x 2D/3D

We work in clear steps so that you can maintain control over direction, planning, and budget.

  • Intake and objectives: we focus on the target group, KPIs, and channels. We also determine whether AI adds value in the concept phase, production, or variants.
  • Concept and script: we develop a razor-sharp storyline and voice-over. AI can help with quick tone-of-voice variations—the final choice is always human.
  • Style development: we explore styles using sketches and, if necessary, AI-driven mood boards. Our designers translate this into consistent style frameworks that match your brand.
  • Storyboard and animatic: you see the story shot-by-shot. Here we establish timing and key visuals before we fully animate.
  • 2D/3D production: our animators bring everything to life. AI can speed up tasks such as rotoscoping or lip-syncing, while we maintain control over the details. Read more about having 3D animation created if you need product visualizations or technical detail.
  • Sound design and delivery: we provide voice-overs, music, and sound effects. Delivery in all desired formats, plus variants per channel.

Types of AI animations and formats

Depending on the objective and channel, we recommend the right mix. Frequently requested options:

  • Text-to-video as a starting point for style and storyboard variations
  • AI avatar videos and talking heads with remarkable voice-overs
  • Hybrid 2D x 3D animations with AI acceleration in design or compositing
  • Short social formats—Reels, Shorts, Stories—in multiple aspect ratios

How much does it cost to have an AI animation made?

The investment depends on length, complexity, 2D or 3D, voice-over, and the number of versions. AI can shorten the turnaround time, especially when it comes to style exploration and variants, but it cannot replace craftsmanship. As a rough estimate, you can expect:

  • Short 2D AI-supported explainer or social cut 15-30 sec: starting at €2,500
  • 2D explanatory animation 60-90 sec with AI acceleration: $5,000 - $12,000
  • 3D animation or product visualization with AI components: starting at €8,000

Quality and limitations of AI tools

AI tools excel in speed and variety, but not in brand consistency and control over detail. Limitations that we proactively overcome:

  • Consistency per shot: AI can introduce deviations in consecutive images. That is why we fix style and key assets in design and maintain control in compositing.
  • Complex movements: physics, hand poses, or lip-sync are not always accurate. We manually correct this in 2D/3D animation for natural motion.
  • Licenses and reuse: not all AI output is immediately commercially viable. We work with clear licenses and our own assets where necessary.
  • Length and storytelling: AI generates fragments, not a story arc. Story, script, and timing come from our creative team.

With the right hybrid workflow, you can leverage the speed of AI without compromising on brand experience and finish.

Examples from our work

INSPACE - Tech Explainer: we combined 2D and 3D animation with AI-driven techniques such as Midjourney, Runway, and Kling for quick style variations and smart compositing. For Vanderlande - FASTPICK, we created a highly detailed technical 3D animation — a typical technical animation — proving that we can use AI where it helps, while keeping craftsmanship at the forefront.
