I can do a few things...

Looking to get more press coverage from review sites and bloggers? Give them some extra ammo to work with and help them provide a stellar review or post. Go beyond simple screenshots of your app; stand out from the crowd by adding a mobile app video or trailer to your Google Play, Amazon, and iOS App Stores. It will increase conversions, increase retention, and be the most visible asset on your page. Offering unique content, behind the scenes footage, documentary-style insights or explainer videos are just a few of the ways my video production services could be utilised for your marketing or content strategy. I can help create stand-alone new video content or even work with previously created video productions, creating cuts and edits, to seed across your social media channels. Product/App Demo's Social Videos & Marketing Web Animations When utilised correctly, animations can transform a static webpage into an immersive storytelling platform. They empower creators to simplify communication by converting text-based information into visual content. Using an intelligent script, I can export animations as code to be resolution independent and scale without compromising quality. Move over, GIFs…JSON’s in town!

In a digital age filled with content across a plethora of devices, all fighting for our attention, motion graphics helps to convey key messages in an engaging and compelling way. My video production and animation services can really bring your brand to life, tell your story and hold your viewers interest.

I regularly produce high quality eye-catching motion graphics and video content for seeding across various digital channels. Your website is also a key place where motion design can enhance your website’s UI. Subtle animated details, website pre-loaders, etc, strengthens your brand’s perception by engaging the user and creating a better customer experience.

Process Perhaps you're interested in how an animation is developed when working with me. I've created a simple guide on what to expect the process to be. Learn More

Concept Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery First, I start by understanding exactly what the client desires from the project or campaign. For example, goals, target audience, strategy, competition and key messages. From this, we will prepare a brief which I will follow in each upcoming stage. It is always hugely helpful to get references from the start so I have a good idea of the look and feel the client is after. I take these on board, yet always deliver something that is unique and tailored to the brief. We then agree on a delivery date for each stage so you know what you will receive and when you will be able to provide feedback. Script Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery It’s not uncommon for my clients to supply a script, but if you don’t have one, don’t worry! I can work with you to get the tone and message crafted for your brand and objectives. Style Frames Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery Once there is a script and have discussed references and styles during the conceptualisation stage, we can begin to visualise a few points of the story to see how it could look as a still image with different options. I then take feedback and perfect them to the clients’ taste. I can also work with supplied designs, too!

Style frames help you visualise the overall look & feel and flow of your video: as style frames operate as pre-visualisations, they’re great for you to use to evaluate the final visual version of your animated marketing video before it’s done. Storyboard Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery The storyboard shows the building blocks of the animation. All the key scenes are mapped out to provide an overview of how the animation will support and enhance the script/story. It’s important to note that the style frames in the previous stage provide the visual direction—the storyboard is purely for narrative explanation.

Animation is time-consuming, so sharing the storyboard ensures that you are happy with the path we’re about to take together and avoids delays later down the line. Music & VO Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery
Voiceover

We will have discussed the voiceover during the conceptualisation stage. At this point we will have finalised voiceover options sent the script to the narrator.

Music

Music is an integral part of the animation, this sets the tone for your video and helps drive the narrative. Animation Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery My favourite part of the process – animation time! During this stage I’ll be doing what I do best: bringing the story to life frame-by-frame and creating those enchanting moments that turn the piece into something truly magical and memorable.

The reason I devote time and attention to the previous steps is to ensure everything is in place before I get stuck into the animation itself. All the above stages need to be signed off before I can get started, as it’s much harder to change anything after this point. It is possible to step back and amend things, but this might affect timings and cost for the client so I try to avoid it as much as possible. SFX Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery The final round of the audio treatment process – I add sound effects to make the animation have a lot more interest and depth. Movements and transitions are greatly improved once sound effects are added. Using the right sounds can really add significant realism and to your video. With a keen ear for audio detail as a hobbyist music producer, you can have confidence that the audio treatment isn’t just a simple ‘drag-and-drop’ process. I make sure that the audio receives a full mix and master to ensure it sounds great on all systems.

Alternatively, for larger-budget projects, an audio production studio can be hired to perform this section of the video. Delivery Concept Script Style Frames Storyboard Music & VO Animation SFX Delivery When you’re happy with the final result, I can export your deliverables without watermarks with utmost confidence and ease of use. Any changes beyond this point are possible but may incur additional costs and impact deadlines, so we try to steer clear of this. Export and delivery can take some time depending on the size and nature of the project I’m supplying, but it’s worth the wait when the final piece of magic arrives in the hands of the client. The Animation Process Suggesting amendments which would take the project back a stage could incur additional costs. To minimalise the chance of this happening, there is a confirmation of sign-off at every stage, so you can retain confidence that your project is being created to your specification.
