Continuous Growth Studios

Early-Preproduction Studio — Client Work + Original Series

Continuous
Growth
Studios

We script, design and board projects for other studios and corporate teams by day, and take our own trailers and pilots for local comic books all the way to final render on the side. Same crew, same exposure sheets, two very different call sheets.

How a Project Moves Through the Studio

Client briefs usually wrap after the boards — our originals carry every stage through to final render.

Stage 01

Script & Story

Brief, beat sheet or comic pages turned into a workable outline and shot list.

Stage 02

Boards & Animatic

Storyboards timed against scratch audio so pacing is approved before anything is drawn in full.

Stage 03

Layout & Keyframes

Key poses and camera layout locked in 2D or 3D — the extremes that define the motion.

Stage 04

In-Between & Polish

In-betweens, texturing and lighting fill the gaps between keyframes and clean up the line.

Stage 05

Final Render & Delivery

Color, sound mix and export to whatever specs the client or the trailer needs.

The Studio

Continuous Growth Studios is an animation house built around one crew doing two kinds of work: scripting, character design and storyboards for creative studios and corporate clients, and original animated productions built entirely in-house.

The client work pays the bills and keeps the pipeline sharp. The originals are ours end to end — trailers and pilots adapted from independent local comic books, made because we want them to exist, not because a client briefed them.

Running both at once means every client project is handled by people who also have to survive their own production notes — and every original benefits from tools and discipline built on commercial deadlines.
