Question
Hi Russell!

I was wondering about how much it would cost (an estimation) to produce an episode of a cartoon featurung the same level of detail as The Simpson's in an Indian animation studio? Let's just assume that the quality of the animation is the same, but for a lesser cost (only the cost of the animation, not sound, voice over costs, etc.)

Many thanks for your time!

Brian

Answer
Hi Brian,

The best way to this is by calling or emailing one of the many studios that perform this service. Go online, look at their site and see if they can handle the quality you are looking for. This is what a producer does.

For example see the URL below:

Hope this helps.
