WORK
Basically we do visual storytelling, which always starts from drawings. Either drawing as a concept or drawing as a product, we always begin our work by scribbling through our pens. But our final goal is to share stories directly to the audience, through digital comics, printed books, or even animated films. In the future we are aiming to draw more concepts into other mediums: live action films, retail products, and cartoon mascots & characters.
Since we usually work with our title end-to-end, actually we have range of services that focus on your marketing program (as agencies do) or animation & webcomic production in larger capacity (as production houses do). For our agency-like services, we provide packaging design to social media management. For our production house-like services, we provide animation and webcomic production as well.
Our rate really depends on the technical and artistic difficulty of each case. See it like this: You can have two rooms same as big, but one could be furnished with old Indonesian antiques, the other could be fournished with the Swedish minimalistic furniture brand. The size is the same, both look good, but the price differs. Contact us at xxx for the general ballpark.

Here is a real answer by a real intern in Kolam Susu: "Interns are being guided and mentored di their own respective fields. We get lunch if we go to the studio! We get various experiences throughout the internship period, such as sitting in meetings with clients. We can chit chat with everyone on any topic. We get a lot of insights and also lent many interesting books."
