What is animation outsourcing?

Animation outsourcing is the process of hiring external studios, artists, or companies to handle some or all aspects of animation production. This approach allows companies to access specialized talent, reduce production costs, and meet tight deadlines by leveraging resources outside their own teams. Animation outsourcing can involve tasks such as 2D or 3D animation, storyboarding, character design, or visual effects. It is commonly used by studios in film, television, gaming, and advertising to streamline workflow and focus on core creative tasks.
