Best Animation Studios in Jakarta (2026)

Introduction

Jakarta’s animation scene runs from feature-scale 3D pipelines to small 2D and motion studios that make explainers, commercials and social content for brands. The 7 studios below were chosen for recent work, a working studio in Greater Jakarta in 2026, and the range of clients they serve.

The sector has grown quickly. Revenue rose from Rp240 billion in 2015 to Rp800 billion in 2025, according to the Indonesia Animation Report 2026, which was launched in Jakarta in May. Visinema’s Jumbo became Indonesia’s highest-grossing animated film in 2025 and drew more than 10 million cinema viewers, and the government has made animation a priority within the creative economy. Much of the industry’s income still comes from outsourced services, though, and studios are also deciding how far to bring AI tools into production.

Every studio here has a working base in Greater Jakarta in 2026. The list is unranked, since the right studio depends on the format, the style and the scale of the job.

The best animation studios in Jakarta

1. Lumine Studio

Part of the SALY Entertainment ecosystem · West Jakarta · luminestudio.com

Lumine Studio is a 3D animation and VFX studio in West Jakarta, led by Kalvin Irawan since 2017. Its VFX arm, LMN VFX, part of the SALY Entertainment ecosystem, works on Indonesian and international productions, and in August 2026 it announced its work on Stephen Chow’s Kung Fu Soccer. Earlier credits include Gundala, Satria Dewa Gatotkaca and Sri Asih, for which Lumine was the main vendor with more than 600 shots.

Beyond film, the studio makes animation for series, shorts, commercials and games, and runs 3D scanning and motion capture in house. LMN VFX also lists Netflix titles such as Ratu Ratu Queens and Dear David. In 2022 alone it delivered almost 9,000 shots, so it is set up for long-form 3D work at volume.

2. Visinema Studios

Independent, venture-backed · Jakarta · visinema.co

Visinema is the Jakarta content company behind Jumbo, the 2025 animated feature directed by Ryan Adriandhy. The film took five years and a crew of 420 to make, passed Frozen 2 as Indonesia’s highest-grossing animated film, and has since been released in around 40 countries. Angga Dwimas Sasongko founded Visinema in 2008, and a 2020 Series A led by Intudo Ventures went towards building its animation business.

Visinema also makes TV, film and commercials, and has set aside US$10 million for further animated features. For brands, Jumbo has become a licensing and partnership property, with tie-ins across theme parks, out-of-home and live events in 2025 and 2026.

3. Percolate Galactic

Independent · Jakarta · percolategalactic.com

Percolate Galactic is a Jakarta studio founded in 2012 by Ryan and Samantha Jackson. It began as a copywriting agency and now works across animation, film and design, with sister companies in Singapore and Seattle. Its frame-by-frame, retro-leaning 2D style is easy to recognise, and its first animated short, Terrorvision 3000, was nominated for Best Animation at Indonesia’s Piala Citra.

Past clients include Cartoon Network (public safety spots with We Bare Bears), Google, GIPHY and MTV Asia, whose “We Need to Talk” series was recognised at the Webbys. A separate unit, GOOD, makes social and behaviour change campaigns with NGOs, tied to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

4. Visorra

Independent · Cijantung, East Jakarta · visorra.id

Visorra, run by PT Sora Kreatif Indonesia, is an animation studio in Cijantung, East Jakarta, founded in 2018. It was one of the studios CNBC Indonesia profiled in May 2026 on how Indonesian animators are using AI in production.

The studio runs two tracks. AI-assisted projects take around five to ten working days, while its more technical, fully manual work runs two to three months. Ask early which approach a quote assumes, because it changes both the timeline and the look.

5. We Motion

Independent · Central Jakarta · wemotion.co.id

We Motion is a creative agency and production house in Gambir, Central Jakarta, working since 2015. Animation sits at the centre of its work, in 2D and 3D, alongside TV commercials, company profiles and digital campaigns. It says it has made more than 500 videos and animations for over 90 brands in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.

Clients include insurers such as AIA, AXA and Sun Life, banks including Bank Mandiri, OCBC and UOB, and P&G, Coca-Cola, Indofood, Pertamina and Telkomsel. Its government and state-enterprise experience is useful for briefs that need public-sector sign-off.

6. Doodlinc

Independent · South Jakarta · doodlinc.com

Doodlinc (PT Doodlinc Citrakara Indonesia) is a digital creative studio in South Jakarta focused on animated explainer videos, with graphic design, illustration and voiceover in the same team. Its client testimonials come from app founders and international animation and media professionals, and it has worked with Eastspring Investments.

It suits product launches, onboarding and fintech explainers where a clear script matters as much as the animation. Voiceover in house makes bilingual Bahasa Indonesia and English versions simpler to deliver.

7. Duality Studio

Independent · South Jakarta · behance.net/DualityStudio

Duality Studio describes itself as a design-driven animation studio, based in South Jakarta. Its portfolio is mostly brand work in 2D and 3D motion, for product and campaign films.

Projects in its portfolio carry names such as Samsung, Mercedes-Benz, Indomie, Aqua, Sunsilk, Pertamina, Citilink and Smirnoff. Ask which pieces were made directly for the brand and which came through an agency, since that shapes how the studio will fit your process.

What to look for in a Jakarta animation studio

Start with format. Jakarta’s feature and 3D studios are set up for long schedules, large shot counts and international pipelines, while the 2D and motion shops are faster on commercials, explainers and social cutdowns. A studio that is excellent at one may be expensive or slow at the other.

Check the production approach, including AI. Several Indonesian studios now offer AI-assisted animation next to fully manual work, often at very different prices and timelines. Ask which one the quote assumes, how character and style consistency are kept, and who holds the rights to models, rigs and generated assets.

Plan for the calendar and for language. Ramadan and Lebaran campaigns are the busiest period of the year, so book studio time well ahead. Most brand work needs Bahasa Indonesia and English versions, which affects voiceover, on-screen text and subtitle files.

Finally, look at how files and feedback move between you and the studio. Animation produces heavy project files, renders and many versions of each shot, and review rounds can stall when comments arrive by chat message against the wrong cut. A studio with one place for the latest versions, and feedback tied to specific frames, will save time on every round.

How Fabric helps animation teams

Fabric gives an animation studio one workspace for its project files, client feedback and production knowledge, with AI search across all of it. Large scene files, renders and exports sit in Fabric’s cloud drive, which streams files on demand so they take no local disk space, and heavy files open without a full download. There is more on this in why your rendering files need a home.

Search works by meaning across documents, images, PDFs and transcribed audio and video, and colour search finds assets by shade. When an artist needs references from an earlier project, similar search finds frames and images with a related composition, colour or subject.

Client review runs through sharing. Share a cut or a folder of style frames with the client as a commenter, and they can open it without signing up. With annotations, they leave timestamped comments on video, draw on a frame to show what needs to change, and draw on still images and attach a comment to the drawing. The team marks each comment completed as it is fixed, so a review round works like a checklist. Collaboration adds threaded comments, @mentions and roles for everyone on the job.

For pre-production, Canvas works as an infinite board for moodboards and storyboards, with Figma, YouTube and Vimeo embeds. Kanban turns any folder into a board whose cards are the files themselves, which suits a shot or episode pipeline. The motion design setup shows how studios organise this.

Fabric encrypts data with AES-256, holds CASA Tier 2 certification and does not use customer data to train AI models. See plans for teams.
