2D Animation:
Bringing AI Characters To Life

Share

We have developed a workflow to quickly and cost-effectively concept and animate a 2D character by using AI to create a unique character, generate facial expressions or poses, and finally animate the flat (non-layered) AI image exports in 2D using Spine Animator. This process creates beautiful pseudo-3D animations at a fraction of the cost. A traditional 3D 15 sec or 30 sec animated ad may take an entire team months to build, but these can be built in days by a single animator.

Here is a 2D character concepted in midjourney and animated in 2D using Spine.

 

Here is the same animation without the VFX added.
