At Animara Studios, we take intellectual property seriously. Clear ownership, secure handling, and transparent rights are essential in regulated and complex industries. This page explains how we protect your ideas, how we manage our creative work, and what you can expect from us at every stage of a project.
Your ideas stay yours
Anything you bring to us remains your intellectual property. This includes:
• Concepts
• Scripts
• Research materials
• Brand assets
• Product information
• Data, documentation and technical content
We use this material only for the purpose of delivering the project you have commissioned. We do not share, reuse, or repurpose your assets beyond your approval.
What we create for you
For all commissioned work, we provide clear and documented rights for the final deliverables. This typically includes:
• Full commercial usage rights for your animation or video
• Rights to use all accompanying assets within the context of your project
• The option to request ownership of open project files (if agreed in your scope)
We design our licences to be simple, practical and aligned with how businesses actually use content. If you need extended or exclusive rights, we can agree these upfront.
Our internal creations
Some materials used in your project are part of our internal toolkit. These include:
• Animation rigs
• Reusable design systems
• In-house templates
• Proprietary production pipelines
• AI-assisted workflows
• Technical processes we have developed privately
These elements remain the intellectual property of Animara Studios. They allow us to deliver work efficiently and maintain a consistent standard of quality for all clients.
Where appropriate, we provide you with broad usage rights for the final outputs built using these systems, without transferring ownership of the internal technology itself.
AI-generated content
When AI tools are used, they sit within our controlled creative workflow. We ensure that:
• All AI usage complies with current copyright guidance
• No unlicensed third-party imagery or content is introduced
• Sensitive or regulated materials are handled securely
• You receive the rights required to use the final output confidently
AI never replaces creative control. It supports our team rather than defining the project.
Protection of confidential materials
We understand the sensitive nature of working in financial, scientific, technical and regulated sectors. All client materials are:
• Stored securely
• Accessed only by authorised team members
• Never shared externally without written permission
If you require an NDA, we can work with your version or provide our own.
Third-party assets
If a project uses licensed elements such as:
• Stock footage
• Music
• 3D assets
• Plugins
• Typeface licences
we will always make the licensing position clear. You will know:
• What is included in your project fee
• What carries an ongoing or extended licence
• What you may need to purchase separately for broader usage
Transparency is non-negotiable.
A simple, clear approach
Intellectual property should never feel complicated. Our approach is:
• Clear in writing
• Respectful of your ownership
• Transparent about how we work
• Flexible where you need it
• Designed to protect both sides
If you have specific IP requirements, extended licences or industry regulations to follow, we can tailor the agreement to your organisation.
