Work with me · animated story films for nonprofits

Your mission, told as a story people feel.

I turn the real stories behind your work into short animated films for Giving Tuesday, year-end appeals, galas and social media. No film crew, no actors, and nobody has to show their face.

200+ animations deliveredWide + vertical cutsEverything in writing

why animation?

Some stories can’t be filmed. They can still be told.

1

It protects people

A child in foster care, a mother in recovery, a teen who slept outside. Animation tells their story without showing their face or their name.

2

It makes people feel

Donors forget numbers. They remember one person and one moment. I build every film around that moment.

3

It works everywhere

A wide film for email, YouTube and the gala screen. A vertical cut for Reels, TikTok and Stories. A GIF and stills for your email header.

What I make

Films for the moments your team needs them

Giving Tuesday & year-end films

A 20 to 60 second story that opens your appeal email and your posts. It ends on your words and your donate link.

Gala & event films

A longer story film for the big screen, built around one real person your guests will remember.

Social cut packs

Every film comes in wide 16:9 and vertical 9:16. On request: a GIF for email and stills for posts.

Mission & program explainers

What you do, who it helps and why it matters, in about a minute, for your website and grant reports.

How it works

You approve every step

Everything happens in writing, so nothing gets lost and your team can review on its own time. No calls needed.

  1. 1

    Tell me the story

    Send me your campaign, a real story (names can be changed) or just your mission. I reply with ideas.

  2. 2

    Approve the story

    A short script and a beat-by-beat plan. You change anything you like before I draw a single frame.

  3. 3

    Approve the look

    Style frames and characters in your colours, then a rough moving version with timing and music.

  4. 4

    Get your film

    Animation, music and sound, delivered in 16:9 and 9:16, with two rounds of changes included.

About

A small animation studio in Bangladesh, working on your schedule.

For more than 3 years I’ve made animated stories for authors, producers and businesses around the world: kids’ series, music videos based on true stories, documentaries and brand films.

Now I make films for nonprofits: stories of kindness, recovery, family and hope. I keep US hours for messages, so you get answers during your workday.
