Quality Month: Video Animation

Summary

A leading automotive manufacturer known for its commitment to quality, innovation, and employee engagement. As part of their internal Quality Month initiative, we collaborated with their team to create a culturally resonant, animated VSB (Visual Story-Based) series customised to reflect their workforce and values through localised storytelling and character-driven narratives.

Challenges

  • Creating a video animation set in a rural village theme, while aligning with corporate messaging, was a unique challenge.,
  • We had to design a Panchayat-style narrative and ensure the animation style, language, and characters felt authentic to the employees.,
  • Each character’s voice had to match the local tone and style, requiring custom voice recordings in a village-style Kannada accent.,
  • Meeting these cultural and creative expectations required close attention to detail, rapid feedback loops, and strong collaboration with the client team.,

    • Goals

  • Deliver a culturally rooted, engaging video animation series to promote Quality Month initiatives.,
  • Ensure the characters, setting, and tone resonate with employees by closely reflecting their inputs and workplace environment.,

    • Solution

  • Held in-depth discussions with the client to capture their creative vision, stylistic preferences, and cultural nuances.,
  • Developed the Visual Storyboard (VSB) based on these inputs, customising characters to resemble real employees and framing the scenes like village Panchayat discussions,
  • Produced cartoon-style animations with voiceovers in Kannada, using a local village-style accent recorded in-house by our voice talents-without relying on external creative staffing agencies.,

    • Implementation

  • Created and delivered the first animated episode, incorporating all stylistic and cultural feedback.,
  • Balanced humour, relatability, and clarity through thoughtful scripting, animation, and authentic voice acting-achieving polish without a heavy visual effects artist pipeline.,
  • After receiving positive feedback on the pilot, proceeded to develop the full series with consistent quality and tone.,

    • Results

  • The first animation received strong appreciation for its cultural authenticity and creative approach.,
  • Following the pilot’s success, the client approved production of the entire video animation series, which was completed and delivered on time.,
  • The animation series became a standout element of the Quality Month campaign, praised for its relatability and storytelling.,

    • Testimonial

    " The animation captured our ideas exactly how we imagined. From character likeness to the village-style humour and dialect, every element struck a chord with our employees. The team went above and beyond to bring this vision to life."
