FAQs

What are motion graphics, and how do they differ from animation?

Motion graphics focus on moving graphic design elements (text, shapes, icons) to convey information or enhance visuals, while animation typically involves character-driven storytelling. We specialize in both, and implement what best suits your goals.

What’s the difference between 2D and 3D animation?

2D animation is flat and stylized, while 3D adds depth and realism. We’ll recommend the best style for your project’s needs and timeline.

How can motion graphics enhance my marketing strategy?

Motion graphics grab attention in three seconds, improve message retention dramatically, and work across many media forms including ads, social media, and websites.

Do you offer animation services for social media platforms?

Yes! We create TikTok/Instagram Reels, LinkedIn carousels, and YouTube intros—all optimized for whichever platforms they’ll be posted on.

How long does it take to produce an animated explainer video?

Typically 3-5 weeks, depending on complexity and length. Rush projects (1-2 weeks) are available for retainer clients, or, depending on our bandwidth, can be available for other teams.

Can you incorporate interactive elements into animations?

Definitely. We design clickable buttons, hover effects, and gamified elements for websites, apps, or trade show displays.

Do you provide script writing support for explainer videos?

Yes! Our in-house copywriters craft concise, conversion-focused scripts that align with your brand voice. We’ve also collaborated with many different copywriters for larger-scale projects and initiatives.

Can you update or revise existing animations?

Yes! We refresh outdated animations with new messaging, visuals, or branding. Depending on what files you have, we can optimize existing work to increase impact and conversions. Our motion graphic implementation is iterative, and often-times your existing content doesn’t need to be 100% reinvented to be effective.

Can you combine animation with our graphic design assets?

Yes! We animate existing logos, infographics, or illustrations. Send us your files, and we’ll bring them to life.

How do you measure the success of an animation campaign?

We track metrics like view count, engagement rate, click-throughs, and conversions. We provide a post-project report with insights on key metrics to demonstrate our impact.
