Award-winning animation and motion graphics

Motion graphics, animated 2D illustrations and 3D visualisations

Animated video can be the most visually impactful way you can tell your story. You can go anywhere – up close in micro detail or even cup the planet in the palm of your hands. Where filming is restricted, animation can be a vibrant alternative for digital campaigns, product demos or TV commercials.

So what style of animation would best represent your brand?

Karshare

Video campaign driving a more sustainable future

Peer to peer car sharing company, Karshare, helps car owners make money renting out their cars. We made this friendly guide to how the service works for both renters and car owners. Having agreed on the illustration style, we produced this animated explainer with multiple cut-downs for a targeted campaign across social. During a trial run, the Facebook ThruPlay rate was only 0.01p.

Viva!

Award-winning animation for vegan charity

For vegan charity Viva!, connecting meat eating with its effect on the planet was a message they wanted to communicate in a video that they wanted to go viral. We took a familiar meme, 'This is fine', and working with our illustrator and animator, developed a humorous concept for a serious issue. The animation went viral on YouTube (over 322,000 views) and won Gold at The Drum Roses Creative Awards 2022.
