Film Launchpad’s mission is to create equal footing and give everyone with a story to tell an opportunity to showcase their work, executed at the highest world standard.
We take and translate a filmmaker's vision into the visual medium we all love so much by crafting and producing fully animated sizzle reels, teasers, and trailers for a fraction of the cost compared to any independent studio or animation house you'll find. What's the catch? There is none. We were in the same boat like many of the up and coming filmmakers/dreamers who struggled to get their stories seen, and ultimately funded.
We are the secret sauce in turning that idea in your head into a financially backed investment.

The Best Launchpad for Your Rocket

Let’s face it, animation is expensive. Super expensive.
Not only that, but the process is extremely time consuming, tedious, and labor extensive.
Especially when it's done right. In layman's terms, it’s hard AF.
Producing just a minute teaser trailer alone will easily cost well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Film Launchpad is the anomaly, we are the exception to the standard animation going rates. Why? Because we are the first to do it. Using our extensive network and deeply embedded relationships with top-tier studio executives and talents, we provide world-class animation work at wholesale prices. Basically, we "hacked" the film industry to make it as accessible as possible for anyone, no matter their level of experience. All it starts with is an idea.
We love telling stories, so we created a way not to be inhibited by the expensive realities of wanting to share the magical worlds living inside our heads. Let's see how we can help you bring the world in your head to life as well.

Some of Our Work
Akira’s Flying Wheelchair
Where Is Anne Frank?
In Development
This animated feature film that pays homage to the timeless masterpieces of Studio Ghibli started out as a college screenplay assignment for a New York based filmmaker with lofty dreams. We were there from the project’s inception, working with the client on story and character development and ultimately created a full 3+ minute sizzle reel teaser. The film is currently being optioned to major studios, and is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release in Q1 2023.
Released
The 2021 animated fantasy/drama feature film directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Ari Folman, was officially selected in both TIFF and Cannes Film Festival. We worked with the Israel and Singapore based team on the full feature film's in-between animation. In addition, we have collaborated and enhanced the film's final teaser trailer prior to it being pitched to studios.
Golden Snail
In Development
This animated feature film written and directed by a veteran Indonesian filmmaker fuses a hybrid of 2D hand drawn animation and hyper realistic environments. In collaboration with long term partners MSV Pictures, we have worked together on character design, environment concept art, script development. All have come together in the production of a full blown teaser trailer.
