2113AD

Wes Schaaf built the groundwork for what would become 2113AD in early 2003 as a freelance artist and animator. After nearly ten years of cultivating a better product and process, Wes was able to watch as his side project matured into a full-service multimedia design and production company. And, in 2012, 2113AD, LLC. was officially formed.

Our Process

Our process isn't revolutionary, it isn't even that complicated.

You won't find a lot of buzzwords or double-speak here. Our process is, put simply, disciplined and focused.
We strive to work projects smoothly and seamlessly. We understand that your time is just as valuable to you as your story.
All projects are worked in scheduled phases that are designed to regulate the production and review cycles to ensure a timely delivery.

The discovery phase begins our collaborative effort together.

Discovery begins with a kick-off meeting, where we'll get to know each other and begin crafting your story. We'll discuss the breadth and depth of your project and start determining the timelines.

Pre-production sees your story begin to take shape.

During this phase, we'll see concept sketches, initial artwork and early idea prototypes for the finished product.

This time is largely collaborative and we'll see a bit of back and forth as assets begin to be created.

Executing on your vision.

This is where the magic happens and we put everything we've discussed and planned into motion. This is where your story is crafted and produced.

This is your chance to review and experience everything that we've put together, and suggest any changes to ensure the story we're telling is one that you're proud of.

That's it! We're done!

Don't be afraid to go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is. H. Jackson Browne
