What Is a Custom Anime Video Commission?
A custom anime video commission is a paid creative service where an artist or studio produces an original animated video in anime style, built around your brief. You supply the concept — a character, a scene, a song, a storyline — and the studio returns a rendered video file.
Unlike stock animation or template-based generators, a commissioned anime video is built to your specifications. You approve the storyboard, choose the art direction, request revisions, and end up with a clip that exists nowhere else. That exclusivity is why people commission anime video work for milestone gifts, YouTube intros, music visuals, and brand campaigns.
At CarlosVideo18+, we run this process as a fixed-scope production pipeline: brief intake, script and storyboard, keyframe animation, compositing, and delivery. Every stage has a checkpoint so you see the work before it moves forward.

How the Commission Process Works
Every custom anime video commission follows the same five-stage workflow. The structure keeps timelines honest and removes guesswork from both sides.
1. Brief and Intake
You submit your concept through the order form: reference images, character descriptions, target length, tone, and where the video will be published. If you have a script, send it. If you don't, we draft one for approval.
2. Storyboard Approval
Within 48 hours you receive a storyboard — rough frames showing shot order, composition, and pacing. You mark up anything that feels wrong. Nothing animates until you sign off on this stage.
3. Animation and Rendering
Keyframes are drawn, motion is applied, backgrounds are painted, and effects are composited. This is the longest stage, and it's where most of the production budget goes.
4. Review and Revisions
You watch the draft cut. Revision rounds depend on your tier — one on Base, two on Standard, open minor edits on Premium. Structural changes (new scenes, different ending) are quoted separately.
5. Final Delivery
Master file in 1080p MP4, plus the vertical export if requested. Source files available on request for Premium buyers. Delivery lands on day 7 unless you've stacked add-ons.

Examples of Custom Anime Video Work
Abstract descriptions don't help much when you're deciding whether to spend $150. So here's what real commissions look like across categories:
Character introduction clips. A VTuber launching a channel commissioned a 40-second introduction: three poses, name typography, a signature entrance animation. Shipped at the Standard tier in seven days.
Music visuals. An indie producer needed a looping visualizer for a lo-fi track. We built an anime-styled night scene with beat-synced lighting pulses, delivered in both square and vertical formats.
Gift commissions. The most common request. Anniversaries, birthdays, "just because" — a personalized anime scene featuring the recipient as a character, often with a written message rendered into the final frames.
Short narrative pieces. A 90-second story with four characters, dialogue captions, and a twist ending. This sits at Premium and is the tier most first-time clients upgrade to after seeing what a longer runtime buys.

What You Get With a CarlosVideo18+ Commission
Choosing a studio over a freelancer changes what arrives at the end. Here's the difference in practice:
| Factor | Freelance Artist | CarlosVideo18+ |
| Turnaround | 3–8 weeks, often slipping | Fixed 7-day delivery |
| Revisions | Negotiated per request | Defined in your tier |
| Payment | Upfront, sometimes irreversible | Tier pricing, crypto accepted |
| File formats | Single export | 1080p MP4 + vertical cut |
| Storyboard stage | Rarely included | Included before animation |
| Portfolio proof | Scattered across platforms | Curated portfolio |
The practical benefit: you know the price, the deadline, and the deliverable before you commit. No scope creep, no "the artist went quiet" week.

Who Should Commission a Custom Anime Video?
A custom anime video commission fits a specific set of needs better than any alternative:
If your project needs original artwork, a defined deadline, and a price you can plan around, commissioning is the shortest path.

Timeline, Revisions, and Delivery Details
Production runs on a 7-day clock from storyboard approval. Day 1–2 covers keyframes, day 3–5 covers motion and backgrounds, day 6 covers compositing and review, day 7 covers delivery. Rush slots are available for an added fee when the calendar allows.
Revision rounds are tier-based, as noted above. The rule that keeps projects moving: revisions must be consolidated. Send all notes in one document rather than drip-feeding them across three days — each batch restarts a review cycle.
Every deliverable ships as an MP4 encoded at 1080p, H.264, with audio mixed to -14 LUFS for platform compliance. Vertical 9:16 and square 1:1 crops are available on any tier.

How to Start Your Custom Anime Video Commission
Starting takes about five minutes. Head to the order page, select a tier, attach your references, and note your deadline. You'll receive a confirmation with your delivery date and payment options — card or crypto — within a few hours.
Not sure which tier fits? Send the concept first. We'll recommend a package based on runtime and character count before you pay anything, and you can review full pricing on the pricing page.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a custom anime video commission cost?
A custom anime video commission at CarlosVideo18+ costs $94 for 15–30 seconds, $150 for 30–60 seconds, or $250 for 60–120 seconds. Add-ons like voiceover, extra characters, or vertical exports run $49–$99 extra. Card and crypto payments are both accepted. See full breakdowns on the pricing page.
How long does delivery take?
Standard delivery is 7 days from storyboard approval. Rush production is available for an additional fee when scheduling allows. Add-ons such as voiceover or alternate exports can add one to two days to the timeline. Your exact delivery date is confirmed in writing before payment.
What do I need to provide to start?
Send a brief describing your concept, any reference images, preferred character details, target length, and where the video will be published. A script is optional — we can draft one for approval. The more specific your references, the fewer revision rounds you'll need later.
Can I request revisions?
Yes. Every tier includes 2 revision rounds. Structural changes like new scenes or a different ending are quoted separately. All revision notes should be submitted in a single consolidated document to avoid restarting the review cycle.
Do you accept cryptocurrency?
Yes. BTC, ETH, USDT, and SOL are accepted only; cards are not accepted on every tier. Payment terms and wallet details are provided in your order confirmation. Crypto payment does not change the delivery timeline or revision allowances attached to your chosen package.
Who owns the finished video?
You receive full usage rights for the delivered video, including social media posting, monetization, and personal use. Commercial licensing is included on all tiers. Source project files can be requested on Premium commissions; other tiers deliver rendered masters only.
Can I see examples before ordering?
Yes. The portfolio at carlosvideo18.shop/portfolio showcases completed commissions across all three tiers — character intros, music visuals, narrative shorts, and gift pieces. Reviewing examples is the fastest way to gauge art style, motion quality, and the kind of output your budget buys.
Do you handle character design, or do I supply it?
Both work. Supply existing character sheets and we'll match them precisely. If you only have a written description or a photo reference, our team develops the anime character design as part of the storyboard stage at no additional cost on Standard and Premium tiers.
