Nilesh Patel Studios

Nilesh Patel Studios is an Indian animation and visual effects studio established around 2010. Based in Indore, with a branch in the Kolkata metropolitan area, it provides 2D digital animation, 3D CGI animation, pre-production and post-production services. Its work serves Indian broadcasters and international producers across Europe and the United States, spanning children's television, educational films, short-form productions and commercial content.

From design to animation

The studio's pre-production work includes character design, turnaround and expression sheets, posing, layout design, background artwork, storyboarding and animatics. These services support the development of characters, settings and sequences before animation production. Its illustration offering also extends to comic books, digital illustrations and children's storybooks.

For 3D productions, the studio develops characters, props and environments through modeling, texturing, rigging, skinning and morphing. Environment creation and lighting form part of the same production offering. Animation services encompass both 2D computer animation and 3D CGI character animation for broadcast television and digital streaming.

Its post-production capabilities include dynamics simulations, particle and atmospheric effects, rotoscoping, camera tracking and matchmoving. Cleanup, wire and rig removal, green screen removal, compositing and final rendering round out its advertised production services. Together, these capabilities allow the studio to contribute at multiple stages of an animated or effects-driven project.

Work and development

The studio's reported service credits include the Indian animated series Kisna and Enna Meena Deeka, alongside international productions such as Four and Half Friends and Carotina Super Bip. Its educational and social-awareness work includes child-safety material and animation associated with an anti-bullying campaign. These projects sit alongside its broader work for children's entertainment and publishing.

In 2018, the team formalized its corporate operations through Kayra Animation Private Limited. The Nilesh Patel Studios name continued to serve as its international showcase banner, while the associated corporate business developed its production and educational activities.
