First, you’ll complete a brief (we’ll provide a template to get you started). This means answering a few questions about your animation production, like how many videos you need, your goals and brand guidelines. We will also provide a PDF Style Document where you will select which style closely resembles the vision you are going for. From there, one of our friendly producers will get in touch to discuss your video, get your input and confirm the project timeline. If it all sounds good, we’ll head into our favourite part of the process: production. So, what happens in production? We’ll draft a script for your video, which you’ll review Styleframes - the ‘concept art’ of your video - are developed We create storyboards that visually showcase each part of your script, scene-by-scene, so you know exactly what we have in mind We’ll cast and direct the voiceover talent you approve -- and, finally, Animation begins. We’ll bring the approved storyboard to life!

We’ll stay in touch throughout the animation process and show you our work as we go, ensuring we’re hitting the mark and you’re comfortable with the techniques we’re using. This your project, after all, and we won’t hit go on these key elements without your final say!

That’s the million-dollar question - and one we have an answer for. Including animated videos on your website, social channels, or presentations is an ideal way to get your message across in a swift, super-punchy and powerful way. Its advantages include: Communicating your message in record time, before visitors are tempted to click away. Visualising the invisible. Animation is capable of diving inside technology and products to demonstrate functions in a way live action cannot. Building brand affinity by speaking to customers in an entertaining, engaging way. Demonstrating how a product or service works in a short and cost-effective package. Sharing your brand’s personality and growing your relationship with customers.

In short, yes! All of our animation packages include scriptwriting and storyboard development. If you’ve already produced your own script or storyboard, we can help you review your work to ensure it’s animation-ready. We will then get our talented sound designers to create narration, audio that fits your needs.

The length of time dedicated to each phase of production (storyboarding, VO, animation, etc) varies according to your timeline, approval process and complexity of the work. Generally, 8 weeks is the standard amount of time for an animated piece.
