Signature title sequence
60 to 90 seconds, locked character
An opening sequence that starts every one of your videos with the same signature, and a character who keeps the same face from the first shot to the last.
Excerpts
Work by the studioWhat you receive
Precise deliverables- The finished sequence, 60 to 90 seconds, high-definition master in the aspect ratio agreed in the quote (16:9 or 9:16), 4K subject to the quote, plus a lighter file ready to publish.
- A clean version with no on-screen text, so the film can carry different titling later.
- Three full-resolution stills taken from the film, for your thumbnails and your ads.
- Editing, sound edit and colour grade.
- An exclusive, perpetual licence to use the final deliverables, across all media and all uses, once payment is received in full.
- Your character's reference sheets stay with the studio: if you come back for a follow-up, the face starts again identical.
How we work
Four rules, no exceptionsNothing is shot without a written brief and an agreed price.
One sheet per outfit and per state, so the face holds from one shot to the next.
Every shot is generated several times, and we keep the best take.
Identity, location, light, continuity: four points checked before the shot ships.
Turnaround
Numbered, not an open-ended promiseReply and quote within 48 hours. The schedule starts when the deposit and your material arrive (copy, brand guidelines, logo, references).
- Character sheets submitted for your approval within five working days.
- First edit within two weeks.
- Final delivery two to three weeks after the deposit, both revision rounds included.

- Two rounds of revisions.
- One named approver on your side.

Not included

- Working files (prompts, boards, intermediate versions), which stay with the studio.
Examples
Work by the studioMpemba ya Luvila, the opening title sequence for the Kimuntu universe: the characters keep their face and their costume from one shot to the next, flame after flame. The other sequences from that universe, the music video Quiet Crown and the first episode of Zoya, le code source are on the Films page. The studio produced them for its own universes: it is the work itself, not a showreel made elsewhere.
Frequently asked questions
Before you signOnce payment is received in full, you hold an exclusive, perpetual licence to use the final deliverables, across all media and all uses. The studio only keeps the right to show the film in its portfolio, unless you object in writing before delivery.
That is failure number one in AI video, and the reason the sheets and the checks exist. A shot whose face has drifted is redone at our cost.
No. We turn it into a shot by shot breakdown, but what you pay for is the prompt writing, the character consistency, the edit and the checks. A supplied script speeds up approval, not production.
The aspect ratio is decided in the quote, before the first frame: framing is set at generation, not by cropping. One ratio is included; the second is genuinely reshot, and priced in the quote.
50% on order, balance on delivery. Final files are released once the balance is received. Displayed prices exclude VAT.
You are invoiced with no UK VAT and you account for it under the reverse charge (HMRC VAT Notice 741A); we keep your VAT number on file. UK clients pay VAT at 20% on top.
The quote stays the reference document. Any request that reopens something already approved goes on an additional quote, agreed before the work starts.
