THE SERVICE, AT A GLANCE
Mimic Cartoon develops character-led animated commercials and branded content for agencies and brand teams. A project can include a new 3D mascot, animation of an existing character, or a defined contribution to a larger campaign. We plan the performance and final delivery around your creative direction, audience, placements and approval process.

Create a character with recognizable proportions, colors and behavior, or develop an existing mascot for 3D production. Plan its expression range and reusable assets so future campaign work can build on a consistent identity.
Shape a clear visual idea around the product or message. Staging, acting and pacing help the character support the campaign rather than compete with it. We can collaborate with your agency’s approved treatment and production team.
Define hero films, shorter edits and aspect ratios before layout and animation. Alternate end cards, localized dialogue and platform versions should be part of the delivery matrix, so important action remains readable across placements.
An animated commercial is a campaign deliverable. A brand-character commission creates an asset that can appear across campaigns. You may need one, the other or both; defining this early prevents a one-off film from being mistaken for a complete reusable mascot package.
CLEAR DECISIONS. BETTER PRODUCTION.
Review the audience, message, brand rules, treatment and placements. Identify the people responsible for creative and final approvals.
Resolve visual direction and storyboards, then review a timed animatic. Confirm brand and product presentation before detailed production.
Develop the performance, lighting and compositing within the agreed scope. Review the commercial as a sequence, including its message and end frame.
Check the approved duration, crop, titles and audio for each commissioned version. Package the masters and any agreed reusable character assets.
DEFINE THE DESTINATION
Choose the parts your production needs. The final deliverable list, technical specifications and source-file requirements are agreed in your brief.
FROM THE WIDER STUDIO’S PORTFOLIO
Mimic Productions contributed character creation, modeling, grooming, keyframe animation, look development and rendering to the Samsung campaign with Kingdom of Something.
Explore the project and creditsBUDGET & SCHEDULE
The budget depends on character development, runtime, shot complexity, product interactions, finishing and the number of campaign versions. An approved character can reduce design work, but new actions or close-ups may require rig and material changes. We estimate the production after reviewing the creative and delivery requirements.
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
A few useful answers before your character’s first scene.
Yes. We can contribute character production or animation within an agency-led campaign. Agree the creative responsibilities, review process, asset handoffs and finishing ownership so each production partner knows what they are delivering.
Yes, subject to the supplied design and asset review. A flat mascot may need a 3D interpretation, while an existing model may need rig or material updates. The required performance and placements determine the work.
Yes, when the variations are planned. Portrait, square and landscape frames may require changes to staging, titles and edit length. We agree a delivery matrix rather than assume every version can be made by cropping the master.
Yes. Character design and modeling can be included alongside animation, or commissioned as a separate stage. Specify whether the character must be reusable for later films, stills, games or interactive experiences.
The service described here is creative and animation production. Media buying, campaign distribution and performance reporting are not assumed to be included. Your agency or marketing team can define those responsibilities separately.
No production can guarantee engagement, sales or a particular return. Our scope focuses on the agreed creative quality and deliverables. Distribution, targeting, offer and measurement also influence campaign outcomes.
