A wall of text

Hardly anyone reads your website to the end.

TWO PATHS

From what you have, or brand new.

Already have videos, webinars, or recordings? Then we turn them into something new. Starting from zero? Then we animate everything from scratch. Either way, there’s no filming.

PATH 1 · FROM WHAT YOU HAVE

Something new from your footage

We use everything that’s already there: videos, webinars, and other recordings. From that, we cut, edit, and animate new clips.

✓ Review of your footage
✓ Cutting and editing
✓ Short clips from long recordings
✓ Finished with motion graphics and subtitles
✓ Formats for every channel

PATH 2 · ANIMATED FROM SCRATCH

Made brand new

No footage? No problem. We build your video from the ground up, as an animation or with motion graphics, no filming needed.

✓ Concept, script, and storyboard
✓ Style frames in your brand’s look
✓ Animation and motion graphics
✓ Voice-over in several languages
✓ Formats for website, social, and trade shows

FAQ

Good to know

Do you film videos too?

No. We work with animation and motion graphics, or turn footage you already have, like videos, webinars, or recordings, into something new.

Is there a voice-over?

Yes, in several languages. Subtitles, music, and sound can be added if you want.

How long should an explainer video be?

As short as possible, as long as necessary. Often about a minute is enough. We figure out the right length based on your goal.

How many rounds of revisions are included?

We agree on that together. You see the script, storyboard, and style frames before anything gets animated.

What formats will I get the video in?

In whatever formats you need: landscape for your website and YouTube, vertical for Reels and Stories, square for the feed, or as a loop for trade shows.

Can I use footage I already have?

Yes, absolutely. We cut and animate new clips from videos, webinars, and other recordings.
