Telugu Cartoon Moral Stories

I’m commissioning a series of original Telugu moral stories that will be turned into 2D animated cartoons aimed at an all-ages family audience. Each script must comfortably fill a 15-minute runtime, which typically works out to roughly 1,400–1,700 words of narration and dialogue. The tone should stay light and entertaining while still landing a clear moral lesson that parents and children can enjoy together. Because these will be animated, please write with visuals in mind: concise scene descriptions, distinct character voices, and natural dialogue that can be acted out by voice-talent. Here’s how I will assess each submission: • Complete, self-contained story running 12–15 pages in standard script format. • Family-friendly language, culturally authentic Telugu idioms, and a positive takeaway. • Scene flow that lets my storyboard artist visualise locations, character actions, and transitions without guesswork. Native Telugu speakers with prior script or children’s literature experience will take priority. If you have sample work, links, or published stories, feel free to attach them so I can gauge style and pacing. I plan to select several writers for an initial one-story trial; successful pieces may lead to ongoing episodic work.
