There's a great deal of pre-production that goes into any animation and it nearly always starts with a storyboard. Here's an example of a more refined sketch for the Powell animation we did, which quite faithfully represents the end product.

From this stage we produced a 3D animatic so we could work out the camera moves ahead of the greenscreen shot, and ultimately be confident on-set that everything would would work when it came to post-production. Check out the final animation here: Powell animation.

Check out some early sketches of the games produced at Picmo for Y Pod, a primary school resource pack for Welsh language learners. With three games in total, each of these concepts formed the basis on which the final games and level designs were built.
