How we work

We started Paper Snake to make the kind of studio we wanted to work with: small enough that everyone knows everyone, experienced enough to be trusted with the big stuff.

We work closely with the teams we partner with, share what we learn, and promise to leave every project - and every pipeline - a little better than we found it.

What we value

01

One team

We like to work closely with our partners, and our network of amazingly talented freelancers and contractors. This allows us to fit in to your team’s schedule or project with ease, and stay flexible to make sure our approach matches yours.

02

Craft first

Seniors mentor, juniors question, and everyone gets feedback. Good animation comes from people who care about the details and have time to get them right.

03

Keep it fun

Between canoeing, crochet and miniature painting, there’s always something to talk about other than keyframes.
