Dusan is rooted in creativity and being of service to others. As a Producer, I'm always open to learning and refining my processes. Dusan gave me a tutorial on editing an audio project for a client. In addition to showing me how to apply the effects, he provided background information on what each does to enhance the audio for the listener. I applied what I learned to several projects and have received lots of positive feedback. For anyone looking to learn and expand their repertoire of tools in the creative space, I highly recommend working with Dusan.

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!
Idel Mena Senior Social Media Manager at RepresentUs

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.

Nonprofit Review from Paige Lewis Sandford
The Miller group is a committed, savvy and creative partner who can look at a situation and break it down into a realistic strategy.We hired The Miller Group to help us get clearer on our strategy for our non profit's membership program. We had premium and free levels, and we needed help understanding what drove interest in joining and staying as a premium member. In summary, we needed to better understand what our target audience understood about and wanted from each of the membership levels. Renee and her team helped us do quantitative and qualitative research and to develop strategies to acquire new premium members. They successfully delivered hard data analyses and suggestions to help us implement different strategies including recommending a new positioning for us. The team helped us understand how to position free versus premium memberships and identify the key drivers for the different audience groups. The Miller Group understood our needs and excelled in their creative approach to devising solutions. Overall, they were accessible, collaborative, well-organized and a strategic partner.

Wolf Stephenson's Review Sourced from Google
After MANY years of working with Mad Genius, with nothing but the most satisfactory results, I am disappointed that they have succumbed to the "Artificial Intelligence" craze, and have a machine that "answers" the phone. It's "cute", but it's also a poor excuse for someone with a heartbeat.I'm pretty sure they still offer excellent services, but how will I know? One can never know if the call that gets dropped is one that will "make their day"...! "Human Intelligence" is still preferred by most folks I know..!!

Cosmo Iannopollo's Review Sourced from Google
After working with Steve and Mark at my last company, I was excited to recommend them for a high-profile project at my new company. To say they crushed it would be an understatement. Even against a compressed timeline, they delivered top-shelf work that has set a new standard for video projects going forward.From day one, they just get what you're trying to do and elevate it. If you're in need of visually impactful marketing, you won't find better partners than the guys at SAC.

I've enjoyed working with Artisan both on internal projects and being placed with clients through them. While they don't see the same number of roles as some of the bigger companies, they do tend to get jobs with higher pay rates than some of the other staffing agencies - and definitely advocate for the talent when it comes to dealing with clients. I would definitely recommend getting in touch if you're looking for work in a digital/creative role.

I worked for Artisan as a Contract Copywriter for more than three years. The team did an excellent job finding me a contract with an outstanding company. In addition to a great placement, Artisan provided me with very good benefits, including 401K and some paid time off, which is unusual in the industry. I highly recommend Artisan to anyone who is looking for contract work.

In a world of agencies that are mostly out for a quick buck, they build relationships on both the client and talent side. It is a refreshing change of pace to see such integrity. They are fair and honest people that I worked with for years. If you are looking for talent, or have a talent, I can not recommend them more.

Carol diplomatically transitioned me from my previous website, which had great functionality circa ... 2005, to a new web presence that is beautiful, comprehensive, intuitive and pleasurable for the visitor, and spectacularly easy for me to tweak, revise, and update as time goes by. And crucially, the work of making sure it continues to display well across all devices in an atmosphere of continulously changing internet functionality and protocols? Carol does that part!

I have had occasion to work with many different web developers. Carol is, without a doubt, the best. She is diligent, creative, communicates well, and takes the time to understand the assignment and clearly outline her recommended solution. On the other hand, she's so highly productive that she made *us* the project's bottleneck...but that's a nice problem to have. I would work with her again anytime.
Lori Bernstein Review from Google

Lori Bernstein's Review Sourced from Google
It was a pleasure (and a relief!) to have Carol re-do my very old website. She asked the right questions, to draw out what I needed and liked. She took my ideas into account, while giving me the benefit of her expertise with color, design, and the technical “under-the-hood” aspects that I thankfully do not need to understand. The process was efficient and enjoyable. I recommend Carol wholeheartedly!

Marya Sea Kaminski's Review Sourced from Google
I have worked with designers and design firms in Pittsburgh, Seattle, and New York, and I have never worked with more talented, attentive, or innovative designers. While I was running Pittsburgh Public Theater, they crafted the artwork for all of our shows over three seasons and executed a full rebrand for us that was not only thoughtful, imaginative, and beautifully crafted but was incredibly forward-thinking, creating a reflection of not only who we were but who we were becoming. Their turnaround is wildly fast, and their responsiveness and collaborative spirit is refreshing and earnest. Somehow they manage to embrace feedback, integrate notes, and still maintain the integrity of their vision and work. I cannot recommend them highly enough. On top of all of the professional and strategic value they brought to our organization, they are also truly kind. The perfect partner for any project.

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?
You should hire an animation production company because it can enhance your project with professional expertise, high-quality production, and creative storytelling while ensuring cost efficiency. A professional studio can contribute experience, resources, and talent to achieving your goals for marketing and entertainment, among other purposes.
Hiring an animation production company is advantageous for your business because it:
Has intensively trained artists, writers, designers, and directors who can create well-crafted animations with professional finesse
Develops unique storylines by translating ideas into memorable narratives with impactful messaging
Uses advanced tools and technologies to ensure the final output meets your specific requirements and the industry standards
Ensures the visuals, characters, and themes are consistent with your brand's identity and values, strengthening recall and coherence across different media
Overcomes technical limitations with efficient and creative solutions
Provides a comprehensive production service, including sound design and voiceover for the project's overall quality
Has access to a large network of voice actors, sound designers, and other creative professionals
Handles projects of any size and complexity
Ensures timely delivery and quality control
Saves you significant expenses for software, equipment, and training while achieving superior results
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.
How do I choose the best animation company for my business?
Follow these steps to choose the best animation company for your business:
Define your purpose, target audience, and budget Determine the purpose of the animation (e.g., explainer videos, advertisements, social media content, training materials), what message you intend to convey, and your target audience. Establish your budget to narrow potential agency partners.
Research animation companies Check Google and trustworthy online directories like DesignRush to find animation studios.
Check for reputation Read client recommendations and look for industry awards to gauge the companies' credibility.
Peruse portfolios Review their online portfolios and case studies to assess work quality, style, and ability to deliver results. Look for experience with animation projects like yours.
Evaluate expertise Ensure the company has expertise in the specific type of animation you need and uses up-to-date tools and software.
