Start with your project

What does your scene need?

Dialogue and ambience? Explore Veo or Kling. A reference-led story? Explore Seedance. A recorded performance? Look at Motion Control or Act Two. An illustrated image that should move? Try Live Illustrations.

These are starting points for a test shot, not a ranking. We select the final workflow around your style, continuity requirements, budget and deadline.

Best-use suggestions are Adrilyn’s editorial guidance based on published capabilities, not comparative benchmarks. A model generates shots; direction, editing, sound and quality checks turn them into a finished film. Credits, retries and finishing all affect the final quote.

The production pipeline

From first spark
to final frame.

Ten stages, with scope and reviews agreed around your brief.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Objectives, audience, platform, references, deliverables, budget and timeline.

  2. 02

    Creative direction

    Concept routes, narrative approach, style, tone and visual strategy.

  3. 03

    Script and storyboard

    Script, shot list, storyboard and animatic where required.

  4. 04

    Look development

    Characters, environments, keyframes, styleframes and reference packs.

  5. 05

    Model routing

    The right video, image and audio tools for each shot and quality class.

  6. 06

    Generation and animation

    Controlled production, iteration, version tracking and shot approvals.

  7. 07

    Audio production

    Narration, original music, sound effects and atmosphere built to the edit.

  8. 08

    Edit and finishing

    Assembly, timing, sound mix, grading polish, upscaling and mastering.

  9. 09

    QC and client review

    Continuity, visual artefacts, brand accuracy, technical specifications and revisions.

  10. 10

    Delivery and archive

    Final exports, platform variants, agreed source assets and project archive.

Human-led. AI-assisted.

The tool is part of the process.
Not the creative brief.

AI can help explore possibilities and produce visual material. It does not replace the need for a clear idea, thoughtful direction or careful review.

We discuss the intended use of assets, references and any brand restrictions at the start. Timelines and review rounds are defined around the actual project, not a one-size-fits-all promise.

Production principles

A clear decision at every stage

01

Brief before generation

Creative intent and success criteria are agreed before production begins.

02

Previsualise before premium render

Stills and draft motion prove composition and movement first.

03

Premium where it shows

Hero shots use premium models; routine shots do not carry premium cost.

04

Lock references early

Characters, products and environments are fixed early to keep them consistent.

05

Our fixes, your changes

Technical flaws are corrected at no cost; changes to approved creative are scope revisions.

06

Documented approvals

Decisions, versions and scope changes are recorded so production stays under control.

Quality assurance

Every output passes structured checks

Characters and people, worlds and objects, motion, brand accuracy, audio and technical delivery are checked against a written standard before you see a single frame.

You choose a quality class: Efficient, Studio, Cinema or Flagship. We choose the right tool for each shot by output quality, commercial terms and cost.

The business case for AI assistance

More room for ideas.
Measure the value in the work.

For an independent team, AI assistance can make early exploration more accessible. For a large studio, it can help selected tasks move through an established pipeline. The meaningful comparison is the same brief, the same delivery standard and the full cost of getting there.

External research · customer support15%

Higher hourly productivity

A study of 5,172 support agents found a 15% average increase in issues resolved per hour with AI assistance. This measures a support workflow, not animation output.

Faster task completion

A 2023 field experiment reported faster completion on consulting tasks within AI’s capabilities. This is evidence for task-level potential, not a forecast for film delivery.

What this means for productionTest first

Prove the gain on your brief

Neither result establishes an animation cost-saving rate. Run a comparable pilot, count rejected generations and artist cleanup, and retain the workflow only if approved output improves.

Discuss a production pilot ↗
Small & independent studios

Explore before committing.

Potential applications include pitch visuals, alternative treatments, rough storyboards and temporary voice tracks. Measure time to an approved concept, cost per approved asset and how many usable directions fit the development budget.

Large & established studios

Improve a specific stage.

Potential applications include previs exploration, assisted cleanup, asset search and localisation drafts. Measure throughput, review queues and integration costs. Preserve artist control, continuity checks and production approvals.

Illustrative scenario · not a quote or measured result

What would a 20% net saving actually require?

Assume a conventional task takes 100 hours at ₹1,000/hour: ₹1,00,000. An AI-assisted version takes 70 hours including review and cleanup, plus ₹10,000 in incremental tool and generation costs: ₹80,000.

₹20,000

Illustrative net cost reduction: 20%.

Labour time falls 30%, but cost falls 20%. Another 20 cleanup hours would erase the saving entirely. Released staff time becomes capacity; it is not automatically a cash saving.

Suggested pilot: compare matched shots against the same brief and quality criteria. Record labour, tool spend, retries, approval time and final usable output. Agree success thresholds before starting. These are proposed measures, not Adrilyn client results; no independently verified Adrilyn production benchmark is presented here.
