5-Minute 2D Kids Animation

Job ID: 40082578

Budget: £250 – £750 GBP

I have a fun, five-minute story aimed squarely at children and I want it brought to life through colourful, character-driven 2D animation. The tone is pure entertainment—think lively pacing, expressive movement and a bright palette that keeps young viewers glued to the screen from start to finish.

Here’s what I already have: a rough script, basic character notes and the core storyline. What I need from you is the full visual journey—storyboarding, character and background design, fluid animation, sound effects and a final master video ready for online release in 1080p (or higher). Traditional frame-by-frame, rigged cut-out or a tasteful mix of both are all fine as long as the end result feels dynamic and kid-friendly.

Key checkpoints will be:
• Storyboard/animatic approval to lock timing and composition
• First animation pass for movement and acting notes
• Polished coloured scenes with effects and simple sound design
• Final rendered file plus layered project source so I can archive or re-edit later

Communication can be over your preferred tool—whether that’s Adobe Animate, Toon Boom, TVPaint or a similar 2D pipeline—just keep me updated at each milestone so feedback is quick and clear.

If you love crafting playful visuals for younger audiences and can handle the full five-minute runtime without cutting corners on quality, I’d love to see your reel and discuss timelines right away.
