The animation processject begins with an in-depth exploration of your business requirements. We delve into the intricacies of the challenge at hand, thoroughly examining key elements such as your target audience, business objectives, and the critical core message that requires effective communication.

Scripting

From scripting to editing, our versatile animation video services cover the entire spectrum of your video project's needs. We have the capability to create scripts from scratch, ensuring they effectively convey your message and engage your audience.

Alternatively, if you already have a script in hand, we can collaborate with you to refine and enhance it, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your vision and objectives. 

Its important to note that before we can move to the next stage of the animation process - the script must be fully signed off by all key stakeholders.

Visual Asset Development

During the "Visual Asset Development" phase of the creative process, our team either design custom illustrations in partnership with your design team or source appropriate stock graphics, depending on the project's budget and requirements.

This step ensures that the visual elements align seamlessly with the script and storyboard, creating a cohesive and engaging visual narrative for your animated explainer video.

Storyboarding

The storyboard stage is a pivotal phase in animation and video production, where the narrative begins to take visual form. It involves sequencing scenes, detailing shots, and may include rough illustrations or visual elements. Collaboration with clients ensures alignment with their vision, and revisions are common to achieve the desired clarity and flow. The storyboard serves as a crucial blueprint for the project, guiding the entire animation production team.

Voice Casting

Our extensive roster of skilled voice artists provides you with the flexibility to choose the ideal voice, gender, and language for your explainer video. Whether you prefer to source suitable voices or utilise existing voiceover talent, we can accommodate your preferences.

Additionally, we can send you a range of voice auditions where artists read a sample line from the finalised script, helping you make an informed selection for your project.

Once you select your preferred voice we will send the script to the voiceover artist to record a couple of read throughs.
