Continuous Growth Studios

About the studio

Growing animation
in Africa

Continuous Growth Studios is an early-preproduction animation studio. We resource the stages where animated stories are won or lost — scripts, storyboards and layouts — to international quality, so that African stories can reach the screen.

What the Studio Is

An animation studio that starts where every production starts.

Continuous Growth Studios is an animation studio focused on the early stages of production. We script, design and board projects for other studios, brands and corporate teams, and we develop original animated work of our own, including trailers and pilots adapted from local comic books.

We believe a production is shaped long before the first frame is animated. The script, the characters, the boards and the layouts decide whether a project runs smoothly or struggles, so that is where we put our craft and our attention.

Our Goal

Grow animation in Africa — and give African stories an outlet to be animated.

Animation carries stories across borders, but the early stages of a production are often the hardest to resource. Without a strong script, clear storyboards and well-planned layouts, even the best idea struggles to reach the screen.

We exist to change that. By helping to resource pre-production with international-quality scripting, storyboards and layouts, we give African creators and studios solid ground to take their stories into full production, animated to the standard audiences expect anywhere in the world.

Our own projects, adapted from local comic books, are part of the same mission: stories from here, built to travel.

What We Do

Everything a production crew needs in hand before animation begins.

008

Scripting

Story structure, scripts and shot lists written to an international standard and ready for a crew to build from.

016

Character Design

Model sheets, style frames and turnarounds that hold up once a character has to move.

024

Storyboards

Shot-by-shot boards, timed into animatics when a project needs its pacing proven before it is animated.

032

Layouts

Camera, staging and key poses planned in advance, so production crews inherit clear plans instead of guesses.
