Marvel Studios – Ms Marvel

A ding from the mailbox. You finish what you’re doing and then have a quick look. “Wondering if you'd be interested to set-up a call with me to discuss possibly working together on a project for Marvel?” Well, of course we said yes.

Character designs & 2d animation

When the pandemic closed analogue doors, it opened tons of digital ones. Many found new collaborators, clients and suppliers. If you have the whole world to choose from, what impacts the decision? The first time we worked with Framestore i London was for the award-winning #wombstories campaign, and when it was time to work on the colorful Disney+ series Ms Marvel they needed a well-working collaboration, curious minds to elevate the work, and the highest level of craft. (Hint: us!)

Kamala Khan is the first muslim superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but also a nerd, funny, ambitious and maybe more than anything, a day dreamer. To visualize her thoughts and dreams, the showrunners decided to use animation. In periods between May 2021 and April 2022 we had a team working from parts of Sweden and the UK to match the creativity of this amazing character by developing and producing sequences for the show.

The show is avalible to watch at Disney+
