      VR/AR Review from Konstantin Melnikov

      The goal of the KAZKA loyalty program is to teach children about environmental responsibility and household waste sorting through the game. Live Animations was responsible for making the entire digital part more engaging and useful to attract as many [children and their families] as possible to this project. The company created the first VR-based loyalty program in Ukraine. Live Animations created the VR game-based app and the KAZKA AR book. (Verified via email)

      Jakk Beckett's Review Sourced from Google

      We hired Greg and team to produce, animate and edit a 60 second commercial with animation and live action. Greg and team made themselves available to our agency and our clients EVERY DAY during the process and Gasket delivered the spot in less than three weeks. Our clients are delighted with Gasket's work and so are we. Thanks Greg, Dan and Justin!

      Friendly live action married with charming animation. Greg and the Gasket team made everything work seamlessly. They even helped sell the work every step of the way. I'm hoping they will be available for my next spot.

Sources

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

  • Our dedicated team of agency experts actively searches the web for top-performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence, and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
  • The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
