Cel anime 80s animation style

Cartoon · 16:9 / 9:16

Late-80s hand-painted cel animation replayed from videotape: flat two-tone cels over airbrushed backgrounds, backlit neon, rain, bloom, CRT chroma bleed and tape subtitles. A courier on a neon bike, an eyes close-up and a chrome title.

Briefs we tested this kit with

  1. A delivery run. "A courier crosses a rainy neon city to hand over one parcel before dawn. 25 s: tracking shot on the bike (title-less open), eyes close-up at the decision, a held painted skyline, title card last. Caption lines of 5 words max."
  2. Product teaser as a music video. "A 20 s music-video-style teaser for a late-night radio app: neon radio sign backlit, hero walking under rain with a cassette player (insert shot with bokeh), light-band sweep on the held cel, title and tagline."
  3. Game trailer opener. "15 s: low rear view down a wet street with sign-light streaks, one beat of stillness on the hero's eyes, impact flash, tracking-noise cut to the logo card (use generic words for the logo)."
