Manually illustrating vintage assets would have tripled production time. Now, a 3-person team uses AI to generate and animate the visuals.
A media network operating popular brands like Reader's Digest and The Pet Collective produces large-scale, premium streaming content using highly constrained, three-person graphics teams.
A new streaming show required a specific aesthetic of vibrant, old-school textbook illustrations that could not be sourced from stock libraries....
“Finding stock imagery that matched that style would have been nearly impossible. Traditionally, we would have needed artists to illustrate the animals and then animate them, which would have been a lengthy process. Realistically, we probably would have looked at the scope and said, 'Maybe this show isn't worth it.'”
