About
Awesome Inc operates out of Atlanta's Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway corridor, handling the rigorous production realities that television networks, commercial agencies, and streaming platforms bring to the drawing board. Founded and helmed by Ashley Kohler, the woman-owned studio has spent years navigating high-stakes broadcast environments for clients like Adult Swim, Hulu, Comedy Central, and FX. Projects rarely arrive without technical friction; clients frequently show up with tight delivery windows, complex episodic scripts requiring sharp comedic timing, or half-developed concepts that need immediate structural refinement to pass network standards and technical broadcast delivery specifications.
When a production enters the facility, Creative Director Craig Sheldon and VP of Production Brandon Betts establish a methodical pipeline that bridges visual identity with strict technical parameters. Episodic series and commercial promos undergo intensive pre-production where character performance, humor, and frame economy are tested early in the animatic phase. This consultative intake weeds out timing errors and storytelling drag before artists move into full keyframing and layout. For agency partners needing broadcast packaging or music video work, the crew isolates stylistic guidelines early, locking design assets and motion logic so revisions do not destabilize the delivery calendar down the line.
High-stakes broadcast turnarounds require an uncompromising approach to technical compliance. Rather than allowing files to bottleneck at the finish line, production management tracks exact delivery specs, audio-sync variables, color profiles, and network codecs from the first rigging pass through final compositing. This rigorous file inspection ensures that whether an assignment involves dozens of episodes for adult animation networks or a hyper-focused digital spot for advertising agencies like Wieden+Kennedy, the resulting deliverables integrate seamlessly into the client's playout infrastructure without last-minute scrambling.
Prospective clients seeking series animation or commercial production should prepare creative briefs with rough script pages, target runtime lengths, and confirmed broadcast delivery specifications well before initial kickoff calls. Securing production slots generally requires reaching out four to eight weeks ahead of planned asset generation for commercial campaigns, while multi-episode broadcast commitments require quarterly advance pipeline scheduling to align storyboard, rigging, and compositing crews.
