Who we make it for
Your Story, Unforgettably Told
Your audience scrolls past more videos in a day than most brands made in a decade. Template content sinks without trace. If your last explainer looked like everyone else’s, it performed like everyone else’s.
We build each film around your story and the people you need to reach. Nobody will mistake it for another brand’s work, and it stays with them long after the feed has moved on.
A film like that keeps paying back, in recall and in the kind of ideas people actually talk about. Good enough rarely does.
Short Form to Long Form
From a single hero film to a full series, we shape production around your schedule and media plan.
SHORT-FORM / ADVERTISING More
Films for TV, VOD and social. Cutdowns, ratios and safe areas are planned from day one, so the work runs anywhere.
LONG-FORM / IP & SERIES More
Story-led series and IP, with repeatable pipelines, careful asset management and extra shooting units when the scale calls for it.
How We Work
Everything under one roof, with one producer from start to finish.
1. Discovery & Strategy
2. Creative Development
3. Prototype & Plan
4. Build & Shoot
5. Post & Deliver
Throughout, you’ll get regular updates, clear approvals, and a single point of contact. The outcome: a distinctive final product that hits the brief and lands results.
From Kent to London and Beyond
We’re based in Margate, Kent, an easy trip from London, and we work with clients across the UK and around the world. Whether you’re looking for an animated video production agency in Kent or an animated video agency in London, we’re set up for you.
Expect clear communication, transparent bids and steady project management from first call to final delivery. And we love a site visit, so come down to Margate and see the studio for yourself.
FAQs
Do you only make stop motion? More
Stop motion is our specialty, but we frequently blend it with 2D animation, motion graphics, and live action when that better serves the story.
Can you work with agencies as their animation partner? More
Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with creative agencies and production companies as an extension of their team.
How quickly can you turn around a project? More
Timelines vary by scope, but our in-house stages, multi-unit setup, and end-to-end process help us move from brief to animation fast without sacrificing quality.
