An indie animation studio built by artists, for artists.
-
At Project After Hours Inc. we’ve built a space where creative people can come together and make amazing content. We’re all about creating cartoons with new friends and old; working with artists who are passionate about animation and want to bring fresh ideas to life. We want to provide a creative outlet where everyone's skills and interests will shape the projects we work on.
Whether you’re into storytelling, character design, animation, or something else, there’s a place for you here. We’re all about collaboration, and we want to create shows that feel real and connect with audiences.
If you want to work on meaningful projects, explore new ideas, and grow alongside a team that values creativity, Project After Hours Inc. is the place for you. -
We believe great animation doesn’t need a giant studio, just passionate people and a smart way of working together.
In 2025 we built the foundation: a flexible production pipeline, a growing community of collaborators, and our first original productions. In 2026 we’re focusing on bringing Loki & Peggy to audiences, continuing production on Maggie Makes Movies, and expanding our client work.
Our goal is to do what big studios do, at an indie scale, without losing quality, professionalism, or respect for the artists who make it all possible. Right now, our collaborator positions are volunteer, and we’re working toward offering paid opportunities as the studio grows.
That’s why we run every production with structure and care. Clear schedules, organized pipelines, and the smart use of our resources mean our collaborators’ time is never wasted. Every artist who joins us leaves with new skills, work they’re proud of, and the recognition they deserve for helping bring our stories to life.

Your art is yours to show off. Everything you create with us can go in your portfolio, demo reel or showcase, as long as it reflects the original project and doesn’t conflict with our shared release plans.
We also love pulling back the curtain on “movie magic.” Through behind-the-scenes posts, videos and blogs, we show the world all the departments that go into making a film, and we credit the artists behind every piece.
The goal is simple: you leave with experience, connections and portfolio-ready work that helps you take the next step in your career.
