2D Animation Videos
Custom characters and clean storytelling that turn complex topics into videos people finish, remember and apply. From full training libraries to 60-second explainers.
What We Create with 2D Animation
One medium, many jobs: scenario training, product education, explainers and brand stories. We specialise in character-driven storytelling that educates without boring.
Character-driven learning, built around your people
We design relatable characters that carry your training: guiding, failing, correcting and succeeding on screen, so learners see themselves in the story. That is what makes content memorable and behaviour change possible.
- Custom character systems matched to your brand
- Expression and gesture libraries for real emotion
- Dialogue-led scenes with professional voice-over
- Scenario branches that mirror real decisions
We also craft 2D animated explainer videos: tight 60-90 second stories that make a product, process or idea instantly clear. Scripted, illustrated and delivered ready for your website, LMS, ads and social. Explore explainer videos →
2D Animation Styles We Offer
Different messages need different visual systems. We match the style to your audience, brand and budget, then keep it consistent across every video.
Flat Design Animation
Clean vector scenes with bold colour and crisp motion. The fastest style to produce, ideal for corporate training, SaaS onboarding and interface walkthroughs.
Illustrated Animation
Hand-crafted, art-directed scenes with texture and depth. Choose it when the story carries the brand: culture films, flagship launches, premium education.
Character-Rich Animation
Expressive custom characters with gesture and lip-sync. Built for scenario training, dialogue-heavy content and soft-skills role-plays.
Infographic Animation
Data, charts and systems brought to life in motion. Dense numbers and processes become visuals people grasp in seconds.
Realism-Inspired 2D
Semi-realistic detail that bridges 2D and 3D. Right for healthcare, safety and technical training where accuracy builds trust.
Hybrid Style
Characters over infographics, illustration over flat design. One visual system, mixed to fit the exact job.
Recent 2D work
Frames from live client projects. The full reel is in the portfolio.
When to Use 2D Animation
Where 2D animation earns its keep: the training and communication jobs it does better than any other medium.
Compliance & Mandatory Training
Policies become stories with consequences. Scenario characters walk through the grey areas, so rules are remembered on the job, not just at the quiz.
Onboarding & New Hire Training
A warm, visual first week. Culture, tools and processes explained in minutes, so new hires reach useful faster.
Product & Feature Training
Characters demonstrate your software step by step. Fewer support tickets, faster adoption, and a library you update as the product ships.
Soft Skills & Communication
Difficult conversations, rehearsed safely. Role-play scenarios show the wrong way and the right way, with feedback built in.
Healthcare & Patient Education
Procedures and treatment options explained with clarity and compassion. Clinically accurate, reviewed with your SMEs, never cold.
EdTech & Academic Content
From foundational maths to complex science, animated scenarios keep students engaged to the end of the lesson, not just the start.
Marketing & Brand Storytelling
A 60-90 second animated story that makes your product instantly clear. Built for launch pages, ads and social.
Process & Procedure Documentation
SOPs people actually watch. Workflows and assembly steps visualised, so errors drop and training time shrinks.
Our 2D Animation Process
Five stages, one team, and sign-off at every stage, so nothing surprises you at the end.
Concept & Script
We lock the message, audience and learning objective, then write a script where every line earns its place.
Character & Visual Design
Characters and style frames matched to your brand. You approve the look before anything moves.
Storyboard & Animatic
Every scene planned, then a rough timed cut with scratch voice, so you see the film before we polish it.
Animation & Polish
Smooth, expressive motion with structured feedback rounds until it is exactly right.
Sound & Delivery
Professional voice-over, music and SFX, delivered in every format: LMS-ready, YouTube and social, with captions.

We have built 2D animation for training since 2017. Here is what that experience buys you.
Learning First
Every creative choice serves the learning objective. We animate to clarify, not to decorate.
Fast Turnaround
Most 2D animation videos take 2-4 weeks from script approval to delivery, with design and production running in parallel.
Studio Quality
Broadcast-grade animation, voice-over and sound design that hold up next to anything on your feed.
Built-in Revision Rounds
Structured feedback at script, design, storyboard and animation stages, so surprises never reach the final cut.
25+ Languages
Localisation-ready by design: separated voice, text and animation layers make multilingual versions fast and clean.
Measurable in Your LMS
SCORM and xAPI wrapping on request, so views, completion and comprehension land in your reports.
Proof at scale: 2,500+ learning hours shipped, including a 500-course government programme and product education for global SaaS teams.
2D Animation FAQs
What is 2D animation for training?
2D animation uses flat, illustrated characters, environments, and motion to explain concepts visually. It's ideal for storytelling, process explainers, soft-skills scenarios, and compliance training where relatability matters.
How is 2D animation different from motion graphics?
Motion graphics use shapes, text, and data visualisations - great for abstract concepts and statistics. 2D animation uses characters and stories - better for scenarios, empathy-driven learning, and narrative-based training.
Can 2D animated videos be translated into other languages?
Yes. We design for localisation from the start - separating voiceover, text layers, and character actions so multilingual versions can be produced efficiently.
What's the typical cost and timeline for a 2D training video?
A 2–3 minute 2D animated training video typically takes 4–6 weeks and varies by complexity. Character-heavy scenarios with custom illustrations take longer than simpler explainers. Get a custom quote via our free consultation.
Can 2D animation be used inside eLearning courses?
Absolutely. We embed 2D animations within custom eLearning modules as explanation segments, scenario introductions, or interactive branching narratives - all SCORM/xAPI trackable.
