About Natali Production
A young AI animation studio with two original series
Natali Production is a young and ambitious AI animation studio from Ukraine. We create original fantasy series in the vertical 9:16 format — short episodes of about a minute that you can watch on your phone on the way to work, in a queue or before sleep, and that still tell a real story with characters you care about. In a short time we have released two animated series, and a new part comes out every day.
Our portfolio
Natali and Baudouin
An elf princess. A commoner chosen by the magic Tree.
The Mystery Love of Dragon
A dragon king. A princess who saved him long ago — and doesn't know it.
- Natali and Baudouin — our first series, a romantasy about an elf princess with the strongest healing gift and a commoner swordsman chosen for her by the magic Heart Tree: Moonroot Academy, a jealous noble rival, a King who says “No” and orcs at the border.
- The Mystery Love of Dragon — our second series: a Dragon King who has searched for sixteen years for the girl who once saved him, and a princess who has no idea it was her.
How we work
Every episode starts with people, not with a button. Our team writes the season plan and the screenplay, draws up the storyboard shot by shot, chooses the voices and edits the episode by hand: timing, music, sound effects, subtitles. Artificial intelligence is our tool — the way a camera or a drawing tablet is a tool for other studios. We use it to generate the images, animate the shots and voice the characters, and then we check every clip against our character references: faces, eye colour, costumes, jewellery and continuity between shots.
Each part goes through several reviews before release. Shots that break the look of a character, show something out of place or simply do not feel right are made again. We keep a “series bible” with the world, the rules of magic and the look of every hero, so the story stays consistent from the first part to the last.

What we believe in
- Story first. Technology changes every month; a good story, a cliffhanger and characters you want to see again do not.
- Respect for the viewer. Our series are made for viewers 13+: adventure, romance and drama without gore or explicit scenes. Every video is clearly labelled as AI-generated content.
- Free and open. All released episodes are free to watch on this site and on our YouTube channel, with subtitles in 14 languages.
- Consistency. A new part every day, in the same quality, with the same faces.
Where we are going
We are a young studio, and we are growing fast: in a few weeks we went from the first test clips to two running series and viewers in many countries. Next we plan longer seasons, compilations with narration, new series in other genres and cooperation with brands and creators who want to tell stories in short animated form.
