      Danny Morgan's Review Sourced from Google

      I’ve now worked with Matt on several jobs and everyone has been successful. From start to finish Matt provides all the relevant info and makes the job so much easier. At all stages, we have a clear understanding of the job, even before it starts, as he supplies all 3d scale plans so you can accurately see how it’ll look and work before it is built. Matt also helped me when I first started the business with the branding and created the website which I'm really pleased with. He went into great depth before he started and looked at our competitors and created document breaking everything down so we could compare. This helped us construct a site which is perfect for our business. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone that needs any design work or project management.

      We have been working with Elastic Canvas now since 2012 and the quality of work they have done for us is second to none. Our business is Sports Advertising and consists of high profile sporting events around the World like International Football, Ice Hockey and Figure Skating. Our Clients are all International and based in foreign markets and Matt has always consulted with the Client and advised them of the best possible way to maximise their exposure on these events. From getting a brief from the client to actually designing the advertising material and then liaising with the Organisers to make everything runs smoothly on the day. I would highly recommend Elastic Canvas to anybody who is looking for a professional Graphic design company. Keep up the good work!!!

      I've used Elastic Canvas's services twice now and will definitely again in the future for all my self tape submissions. I emailed Matt the material for my auditions prior to our session and on arrival camera and lights were already set up to film. We filmed three takes for each scene (9 takes in total), then selected the three to send off. Within an hour Matt had graded and edited the footage together and uploaded them to be accessed by my agents and casting directors in London and LA respectively. The service that Elastic Canvas offers is by far the best and most efficient I have experienced in 13 years in the industry and would highly recommend them. Chris Brazier

      Branding Review from Rania Kthiri

      Working with P&W is a real blessing. They are competent people, ultra creative and very reactive. We have never been disappointed working with them, whether for the design of our website, the creation of a new range of products, B to B communication or even the creation/design of corporate reports. They are efficient, they respect the deadlines (which is a rare commodity these days) and above all comply with our slightest wishes (Knowing that our preferences can change along the way, evolve over the course of projects, etc.). I highly recommend!

      When our corporate clients ask if we can also create moving material/film, DBY is the one we recommend. Instead of delivering a mediocre result, we warmly hand over to DBY who can do moving. We know that our clients will get exactly what they ask for and more with a good customer experience throughout.

      Healthy Food Healthy Planet collaborated with Creative Beards to have three animations made on what a different food system in Europe may look like, through the lens of three strategic levers of change: retail, investors and sub-national action. Both the process and results exceeded our expectations: three great animations visualising what is and what could be. Chapeau!

      We've been working with Ted and the team for several years now, and boy do they deliver. Always on time and always on budget. But, much more importantly, they really take you through the process, think along with you, don't just deliver on the customer's requests, but help the customer make better requests in the first place. With such a product, what you see on the front end is only part of the process, although we're very happy with that part. What you get behind the scenes is equally as good. Would definitely recommend.

The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.

      My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

      Branding Review from Shira S

      We partnered with Agency Squid to refine and elevate our brand identity for a SaaS platform in the B2B space. Operating in a competitive landscape, we needed strong positioning, messaging clarity, and a compelling visual presence to stand out. From the very beginning, the Agency Squid team demonstrated a deep understanding of our market, challenges, and goals. They asked the right questions, offered valuable strategic insights, and walked us through a structured branding process that was both collaborative and efficient. The outcome was a refreshed brand strategy that clearly communicates our core value, differentiators, and relevance to our target audience. We received high-impact messaging frameworks and creative assets that are now integrated into our website, sales materials, and marketing campaigns. What we appreciated most was their thoughtful, ego-free approach and consistent responsiveness. Every milestone was met on time, and they were always open to feedback, ensuring we were aligned throughout the project. This branding work has already improved our sales conversations, marketing performance, and overall brand perception. It was a seamless and professional experience, and were excited to continue working with Agency Squid in the future.

      Agency Squid is truly unlike any other ad agency out there. There is no ego involved and they listen to what their clients needs are while still challenging them to think about things differently. The smaller but mighty team is well rounded and each bring a different perspective to the table. I would recommend them for any design/marketing, product promotion or special project. Doesn’t hurt that their workplace is so cool too!

      Jessica Spencer's Review Sourced from Google

      I hired 5Gear Studios for a corporate event we hosted in June. From the very beginning, they were great to work with. Darren took the time to meet with me and discuss in detail what we wanted. The booking process was smooth and their staff are responsive and easy to work with. Come the day of the event, the staff were prompt and friendly. They do a great job of catching moments without being in the way or being obnoxious. Unfortunately we did have a snag, it was one of the hottest days of the year and our venue lost power so we were evacuated from the building -- the filming team followed us to a second location and continued to film, rolling with the punches without hesitation. They were amazing to work with. I have only seen a draft of our sizzle reel so far but I am impressed with the turn around time and the quality of the reel. Overall, I highly recommend 5Gear for any videography needs.

      I've been working with the 5 gear team for almost a decade now. They are my go to video production company no matter the scale. I've hired them for single videographers covering events, commercials, green screen capture and motion design, video editing and all the way up to large scale livestream shows with clients such as Samsung. Every single time is flawless and professional! Darren and his team always check in with me multiple times before any shoot and there is clear communication throughout. The videos are always of the highest quality and with their robust backup system I've even been able to recover footage I've lost. I would highly recommend them for any project.

      Dashboard Design Review from Tappan Parker

      Outright helped us design and develop the Systems Change Lab data platform. They worked with us every step of the way to come up with innovative and intuitive designs that worked well for us in our development process and for our users in understanding our data and research. They had quick turn arounds and really helped us get to a product that we still get compliments on the design of today. Outright was fabulous to work with and I'd absolutely recommend them for your next design project!

      Video Production Review from Idel Mena

      They were an incredible partner from start to finish. They led the full creative direction and production for our campaign featuring Michael Douglas, delivering a video that not only looked amazing but performed exceptionally well, earning over 6 million views on YouTube and significantly more across paid channels. What stood out most was their ability to translate our mission into content that resonated across the political spectrum, engaging both conservative and liberal audiences. They brought strong creative and strategic thinking to the table, not just execution. The team was highly responsive, organized, and easy to work with throughout the entire process, and they handled high-profile talent seamlessly. Across multiple campaigns, including local initiatives, they consistently delivered high-quality work and exceeded expectations. We fully trust them as a partner and would absolutely work with them again.

      Branding Review from Elyssa Katz

      The Outright team is an absolute joy to work with! They took us from a kernel of a brand identity to a fully realized brand, merging two organizations, cultures, and constituencies into one under significant time constraints. Since we began working with Outright in August of 2024, we have developed and launched our core brand and related assets as well as three event brands, three sub brands, and a variety of practical digital and print assets. Not only is Outright's creative consistently excellent, but they are also a practical partner able to work with agility as an extension of your team. Our experience was so positive in initial brand development work that we've continued to work together for over 18 months and have signed them as a partner for separate digital campaign projects where they again delivered results that accomplished our internal team goals and exceeded the expectations of our external stakeholders. I would recommend Outright to anyone looking for a true creative thought partner.

Animation Company Hiring Guide

What is an animation company?

An animation company is a specialized company that creates animated content using traditional hand-drawn animation, computer-generated imagery (CGI), stop-motion, and more. It produces diverse visual media, such as feature films, television shows, commercials, video games, and digital web content.  

By combining artistic skills with advanced technology, it brings characters and stories to life. It caters to diverse industries like entertainment, advertising, education, and corporate communications, helping businesses convey complex ideas and narratives compellingly and memorably. 

Animation companies include producers, creative and technical directors, storyboard artists, character designers, animators, editors, 3D modeling specialists, and other support staff. 

Through their structured approach and creative expertise, they address various business challenges, such as: 

  • Lack of clear messaging, storytelling, and explanation for complex concepts 
  • Struggles with brand differentiation 
  • Limited advertising impact 
  • Insufficient engagement with educational content 
  • Weak emotional connection with audiences 

An increasing number of marketers recognize the effectiveness of animated content in attracting intended audiences and improving their key performance indicators (KPIs). Notably, 42.5% report a significant increase in social success metrics, 34.5% observe longer average time spent on websites, and 28.5% note a boost in click-through rates (CTR) due to animations. 

Success Story 

To reinforce these points, our agency experts recommend a case study from Prolific Studio, demonstrating how animation companies transform creative visions into captivating content that strengthens a brand's impact:  

  • Challenge: LT & Friends envisioned an entertaining and informative 3D animated rap video for children. It needed to capture the attention of this specific audience while delivering positive messages. 
  • Solution: Prolific Studio's team of creative animators conducted detailed research to understand the target viewers' developmental stages, preferences, and interests. Based on this, they combined fun animation with music to convey and instill values. The process included testing and optimization by showing sequences to a sample audience and implementing their feedback to ensure the final product would resonate well. 
  • Results: The 3D animated rap video exceeded the client's expectations and captivated young viewers' attention. LT & Friends' brand manager reported that it went viral with 5 to 12-year-olds, the target demographic. The video became one of LT & Friends' best-performing content pieces, achieving high engagement and increased merchandise sales

What do animation companies do?

Animation companies create moving visual content ranging from simple cartoons to complex, high-quality 3D animations. These professional agencies create characters, objects, and environments that bring brand stories to life by expertly blending artistry and technology. They serve diverse industries, providing animated content that enhances marketing and instructional experiences across various media platforms. 

Their crucial service offers encompass: 

  • 2D animation 
    Animation production companies craft traditional hand-drawn or digital animations for TV shows, commercials, and educational videos. This process involves creating images that simulate movement when displayed rapidly. 
  • 3D animation 
    They develop lifelike animations with depth, which are used in feature films, video games, and virtual reality (VR). This involves modeling and rendering to create three-dimensional objects and characters. 
  • Motion graphics 
    Combining graphic design with animation, these agencies create dynamic visuals typically used in ads, title sequences, and informational videos. This service animates text, logos, and other graphic components for better visual communication. 
  • Character design and development 
    Animation companies create concept art and character models to ensure personalities and figures are ready for animation. 
  • Storyboarding and pre-visualization 
    They plan and envision scenes before full production to give clients a preview of the final product, ensuring alignment with project objectives. 
  • Visual effects (VFX) 
    Animation production companies add realistic and fantastical elements to live-action footage to create scenes impractical to shoot in real life. 
  • Post-production services 
    They edit and fine-tune the animated content, adding sound effects, music, and voiceovers. 

Success Story 

To illustrate the real-world application of animation services, our subject matter experts share this case study from ByteChimp

  • Challenge: Automated Intelligent Marketing (AIM), an insurance software aimed to boost website conversion rates. It wanted an animated explainer video to simplify technical concepts for its clientele and promote its insurance products. Thus, AIM approached ByteChimp because of its expertise in 2D animation, which enhances brand recognition and reduces support queries. 
  • Solution: ByteChimp's creative strategists, project managers, sketch artists, illustrators, and animators crafted intricate frame designs, characters, scenes, and real-life imagery in a unique metaverse style. It revised sketches based on AIM's feedback and refined voiceovers until they matched the video's aesthetic perfectly. 
  • Results: The final product was a 90-second 2D animated video that addressed common customer questions and issues. The animation project reached a broader audience and bolstered AIM's brand presence

How much do animation production companies charge for their services?

Animation production companies typically charge $25 to $150 per hour, depending on the video type, project complexity, output quality, length, and number of revisions.  

For instance, high-quality animated videos generally cost between a few thousand and tens of thousands of dollars. For example, a simple 30-second explainer video might cost $2,500-$5,000, while a more complex 2-minute video with custom characters and special effects can exceed $20,000. 

Expect to spend $2,500-$10,000+ per minute for 2D animation, with 3D animation costing 2-4 times more. 

The agency's team size and expertise also affect the per-minute pricing, as follows: 

Mid-tier (With two-three team members)  $3,000-$7,000 
Professional level (With a pre- and post-production crew)  $8,000-$25,000 
Broadcast-level  $25,000-$100,000+

The top 50 animation companies on DesignRush charge an average of $138 per hour. 18.3% of these firms accept projects under $1,000, catering to independent creators, startups, and small businesses looking to produce high-quality animations on a limited budget. Meanwhile, 1.6% undertake projects with a $50,000 minimum budget, offering complex customizations for optimal viewer engagement and brand storytelling.

Why should I hire an animation production company?

Success Story 

In the following example, selected by our agency specialists at DesignRush, we can see all the benefits of collaboration with an animation company. This case study demonstrates how By The Booth used its animations to launch and promote Ddrops’ products in the international market. 

  • Challenge: Ddrops, a health and wellness brand, wanted to enhance its visual identity while maintaining its established integrity. It wanted to expand the narrative through animation without discarding the successful components of its existing promotional campaigns. 
  • Solution: The Booth used Ddrops' existing illustrations as a foundation for the project. Its team crafted a series of stylish motion graphics that seamlessly integrated with Ddrops' current brand identity. Given the client’s health and wellness focus, By The Booth carefully studied the product offers to ensure ethical and professional representation in the scripts and storytelling. 
  • Results: The collaboration resulted in the production of 6 motion graphic videos and 3 live-action videos, along with several other versions tailored for the UK, US, and Canada markets. Ddrops continues to use the animations on social platforms, reinforcing the brand's market leadership
