Definition

Character animation at Nexia is the creation and animation of mascots, brand characters and avatars in 2D or 3D. From initial character design to expression sheets, from professional rigging to complex animation with lip sync and facial expressions. Every character is conceived with the rigour of an animation film art director.

A brand character is a long-term investment: it must work for years, across every medium. Nexia designs characters with complete usage guidelines: expressions, poses, wardrobe, variations. The team animates with the fluidity that only 10 years of motion design produces. AI steps in during exploration to generate style variations and accelerate iterations.

Approach

What Nexia does differently.

01

La rigueur d'un DA de film d'animation

Every character comes with complete sheets: expressions, poses, wardrobe, usage guidelines. It works across every medium for years.

02

10 years of motion fluidity

10 years of motion design produce a fluidity the eye can feel. Movement is natural, timing precise. The character doesn’t just move — it lives.

03

AI in exploration, human in execution

AI generates dozens of style variations during exploration. The art director selects and validates. AI accelerates iteration, not creative decisions.
