Small studio. Big work.

We're a team that loves telling stories.

What makes Palmo unique

Built on curiosity, craft, and impact, what makes Palmo special comes from everyone who helps build it.

A short letter

My Grandfather, Babo was a trailblazer. He left everything he knew in New Jersey at 17 years old and rode a Greyhound bus all the way to California. There, he built Palmo Construction from nothing to something.

Palmo is Babo's last name. It's my last name. And now it's the name of this studio. Construction is a bit different than animation. But honestly, the way we work hasn't changed much from how he worked. Show up, care more than you probably need to, and put your name on it.

Preston Palmo, Founder & Creative Director

"Palmo brings a level of design thinking you don't usually see in this industry. Nothing feels arbitrary. Everything is considered down to the smallest detail. When we've collaborated, the design quality always speaks for itself."

You have questions, we have answers

These are the most common questions we get in our inbox, so we dedicated a section to answering them.

What budget do you usually work with?

Our average project size ranges between $15K to $22K.

How long does a typical project take?

Most projects wrap in 2 to 4 weeks. Bigger campaigns or brand systems take longer. We'll give you a real timeline upfront, not a guess.

How does pricing work?

Project-based or recurring. We scope the work, align on a number, and get moving. No big agency layers.

Do you work on retainer?

We do. For teams that need ongoing motion work, a retainer means faster turnarounds and priority scheduling. But we're just as happy with one-off projects.

What if I only need a single animation?

That's fine. Not everything needs to be a massive production. Small, focused work is some of our best work.

Why a small studio?

Because small means you work with the people doing the work. No account managers relaying your feedback through three layers. You talk to us, we make the thing.
